Dearest Friends and Crafters, The New Year is HERE and I am SO excited! It's good to be alive and I feel refreshed and rearing to start it all over again- bigger and better. My word for 2018 is EVOLVE and I am planning to take all my goals and dreams to the next level this year so I thought it was a perfect word to encompass it all.
