This is going to be one of my FAVORITE threads to read, I cannot wait to hear about what everyone does to chill out, or focus their energies, or express themselves!!!

I’m a math nerd. I create the pattern on Excel and then crochet it. It’s like a puzzle. I love it!

#3 I love antiques and repurposing antique objects that are no longer together as it’s original piece (I never have the heart to repurpose objects that are still all together... I love the history of the objects). I made a potting bench for my porch (I still need to find the perfect old wood for bottom shelves). The tall back cabinet is from the lady I bought my house from, it was the top of a secretary desk that no longer had the desk part and the sink is from my grandma’s husband’s cabin.
