Holiday Weekend Craft Links

| 0 comments

Normally, this would be a major crafting weekend for me because in the US we are celebrating Martin Luther King Jr. Day on Monday, which means a three day weekend for me. But, of course, the stars were not aligned correctly and instead I’m battling a heck of a nasty cold! I literally languished on the couch all day yesterday and did zero crochet or jewelry stuff or anything! Hopefully, things will be better today. There is much crafting to do!

Welcome to the Crafty Princess Diaries, my weblog and site where I get to blab about my passion for crafts, primarily jewelry making, and my crafting career. My name is Tammy Powley, and I decided to call my blog the Crafty Princess Diaries because of this very dorky picture I have of myself and because my husband often refers to me as “the princess and the pea,” which is just another way to say that I tend to be particular sometimes. Along with this weblog, I have a number of jewelry making books published.
