My First Big Craft Giveaway

Tweet

Well, if anyone knows me, they know that there was a period of time in my life when I collected craft kits--and I don't just mean a few.  I used to hit the after-Christmas sales and the thrift stores.  I bought so many kits that I had at least 5 tubs full.  Large Rubbermaid tubs!!

Yes, I did a lot of crafts over the years.  I loved cross stitch and embroidery.  And when these kits were so cheap, it was worth it. 

But life happened.  I was in an unhappy marriage.  I taught full-time.  My daughter came along.  And now I just don't have the time to these.  And my daughter will do some of them, but she is very active.  Crafts are fun, but she would rather play a video game or just run and jump.

So I decided it was time to get rid of some of these kits.  I've gotten rid of a lot over the years.  But I still have some.  You can see in the picture that I am giving away 7 kits.  They are probably about 5-10 years old, but they have not been opened.  Most of these kits are no longer made by their companies.  I know that many of you are very crafty, and you could use these. 

I will post a few more pictures so you can see them up close.

Interested?  Well, I hope many of you are.  I would much rather give these to my wonderful readers rather than try to sell them on ebay.  (I used to do that--I just don't have the time!)
