The Problem Child


While some single gals focus on their cats, and others on their houseplants, I prefer a more creative, frustrating and potentially hazardous distraction of the crafting variety. And, like cats and plants, sometimes you have a high maintenance project on your hands. Sometimes you craft yourself into a corner. Sometimes you do both. I made this little straw cocktail hat two years ago and it sits, unfinished and ignored. Maybe I just haven't found the perfect trim. Maybe a friend's off-handed remark about it looking like a hat for a funeral made me harbor negative energy toward it. Whatever the case, I'm pulling it from its place of shame in hopes of some inspiration.
