Becoming Crafty Without Being Crafty

I wouldn't really consider myself an artistic person. As much as I've wanted to be one of those low-key, introverted, insanely talented artists, I've miserably failed at all three of those descriptions. Disclosure: I'm a lefty, which apparently just makes me weird and non-artistic to all righties out there. Conquering the impossible though, I've managed to perfectly craft the non-crafty persona.

Trippy Turtle Doodle

Eccentric turtle that made me feel crafty AF.

Trippy Elephant Doodle

Then I felt like Trippy Turtle Doodle needed a friend.

I know what you're thinking...'that looks pretty crafty for a non-crafty person'. Don't be fooled...

LIGHT BOXES PEOPLE. A LIGHT BOX. A TOOL THAT HAS THE POWER TO MAKE A LEFTY FEEL AS FOCUSED AND CONCISE WITH LINES LIKE A RIGHTY. Shout out to my light box for making me feel like I actually am an artist.

Spray painted mason jars...behind the scenes

This is my dad. He thought he was the Monet of spray painting.

Can you tell how excited he was?

Finished project...

Thank you Big Lots for your wide array of Mason/Ball jars.

My scissors have never looked so good

And more...

Something about holding a spray painting can is liberating.

DIY headboards

You heard it here folks, DIY HEADBOARDS. I purchased the fabric I wanted to use from Joann's Craft Store, cut, and stapled the fabric on the perimeters of the foam core boards.

The DIY craziness doesn't end here...believe in your un-crafty ways, people. The world would be so boring with everyone walkin' around like van Gogh anywho.
