Monday moods - crafting emotions

:star:All the emotional feels of crafting​:star:

Crafting can be emotional from making a special memorial craft for a person that they cherish.
Some times the times for yourself as well it’s not always an image it can be something that has meaning for you that doesn’t need to be vocalized.
Sometimes is a saying that gives you the feels.
Putting a design together is one of my favorite parts of crafting the feeling of accomplishment and excitement when my idea forms to a finished design is its own happy excitement. Actually building the design and see it on an item is its own happy pill.

:loudspeaker: Now let’s talk about the crafting rage :triumph:

You put a design together now your cutting vinyl or htv looks good and your weeding it and part of it wants to come up you need to say down; you get that part done then it happens again activating the crafting rage vinyl is incurable at doing this you have your project finally almost done then the one thing you don’t want to happen does another part lifts and folds in on its self all that work messed up cause you just lost a part you can’t fixed! You diss under your breath and debate do you need it now can you recut just the messed up part or do you make it all over again? You have gone from happy to frustrated to hopeful to rage in such a shot span of time all for vinyl going haywire…… congrats your a crafter!

Sad :cry:

You gave an item to a person in memory of a loved one that passed away. Their emotions receiving the item is something that sticks with you their tears are a reminder of what makes crafting special.

:smirk:Sneaky :smirk:

This is when you have decided to surprise a person with a craft project or have been asked to make a item and those that have super active pages the project can’t be posted till after it’s been received, it’s fun to make those things that as secret squirrel projects.

:eyes: Curious :face_with_monocle:

You want to try something that your not sure if it will work but you gotta try it! It’s so much fun when those items turn out! It’s funny stories when it’s a big fail! But it’s a part of crafting finding what works for you trying new things it’s fun!

:thinking:Confused :thinking:

This is the wonder women of crafting. You wonder where you left a blank, wonder where that patter htv disappeared to and you wander where the dot on the i got to when you had been weeding. This lots of things that confuse and make you wonder where it was at last. Yes not everyone is like that I have not decided if it’s a personality thing or not but it’s oh so much fun trying to figure it out.

:trophy:Accomplished :trophy:

You made it through needing to recut things yell at a machine sing along with a few song threaten the printer it’s going to be tossed out the window sweet talked the press and your projects turned out how you wanted may have take more time then you thought but you figured it out and now you get to see why it’s worth it every time!

Crafting is an emotional rollercoaster :roller_coaster: and it’s always worth it to make some and have that adventure of crafting!
