Apparently...I have crafting A.D.D.!!!

OK!  So I've been a slacker when it comes to actually doing any crafting lately.  I have actually only been in my craft room to clean it up and move stuff around in it.  I don't know why I am not in the mood to work on things I already have! 

I now find myself wanting to try to learn new things...one of them being metal stamping.  This is where you can personalize silmetal by using a hammer and letter stamps.  There's so many different things that can be done with it...it just looks like something that I could be creative with and sell quite a bit of.  Especially for Christmas!   

Here's a sample: 


And then there is crocheting.  I used to know how to do this...as my mother taught both my sister and I how to crochet when we were young.  But of course...it was not cool back then and so I've forgotten every little thing that I once knew!  I've actually had a lesson today on how to crochet...but was getting frustrated and had to put it down!
So anyway, I need to figure out why I have so many things I want to do...and then once I do them for a while, I want to move on to the next thing. 

I guess it wouldn't be so terribly bad to be this way...except when I start a new craft...I like to go all out and get everything I need...PLUS some!  It's getting a bit expensive! 

I may have said this before, but I've got supplies for beading, knitting, card making, clay art, stamping, embossing, scrapbooking, sewing and now crocheting in my craft room!

I just might need some professional help!
