Boggle and Buttons

I am not a crafty person. I have attempted to be crafty and it just never works out. I tried scrapbooking for awhile, I've tried crocheting, quilting, and other similar tasks, but I'm just not gifted in that way. I desperately want to be dedicated to a craft, probably because my life is one big void right now and I feel that filling that empty space with a hobby would make the days go by faster or something, but I have been looking for a crafty hobby for a couple of weeks and I think I've found it.

Please don't laugh, but I've starting making button bracelets. My mom used to have a really cool button bracelet and I always admired it so now I've decided to make some of my own. Furthermore, I think that the kids at the summer camp I'm working for this summer will enjoy them. Button bracelets seem like a pre-teen fashion fad and if I can start it at camp, I will be the coolest counselor ever. That is another reason for this hobby, I want the kids at camp to think I'm awesome. Here's hoping these things make me seem really cool!




In other news, I'm also in charge of making a bulletin board at this particular camp. It has always been a point of stress for me, but I think I've got it figured out for this year: a Boggle board. Sounds easy, but we'll see how it turns out. I've been working on it today, which is why I'm whining about crafts. They are hard. So, kudos to all of you crafty people out there, I'm green with envy. Hmm...maybe that will be my next bracelet.
