I'm back! I'm so happy!!! I've been dealing with some pretty nasty nerve damage in my dominant arm since last Spring. By about June, it got so bad that it took everything I had just to get through the day, so I had to stop doing pretty much anything that wasn't absolutely necessary. I had surgery in August and the recovery has been less than fun. I'm still not operating at 100%, but I'm tired of not being able to do the things that I love. I didn't realize how big of a part of my life crafting and being able to express my creativity in that way is. It truly makes me happy, and when I can't do it, I get depressed. I hope that I never have to go through another "craft-less" time in my life again!
Sooo anyhoodle, my first project back on the "job" was this Halloween trio for my porch. My fabulous hubby cut me this wood:
This is what I did with it:
The ghost stands 2 feet. The cat 18" and the pumpkin is 12":
It looks so adorable on my porch! I'm so glad to be back to being able to craft again and look forward to getting back to 100%.
