Blogging about my crafts....is this another kick?

So my whole life I always have this hobby, or that... I have done every 'hobby' or 'craft' you can think of. If the materials can be found in Jo-Ann's, Michael's, or Wal-Mart, then I have tried it. I have the skills (and materials) to cross stitch, embroider, crochet, knit, scrapbook, paint, make jewelry, perler (melty beads), dog groom, wood work, clay crafts, glass paint, marble mosaic, do every and all kinds of puzzles (including 3-D), models, the list goes on and on... My boyfriend calls them my 'Kicks'. I love all of these hobbies, I do them for a while and put them down only to pick them back up a year (or five years later). As a matter of fact this is my 5th blog :) So I started Perler beading and LOVE IT! I am thinking about trying to sell my creations at our local art fair in a couple of months. I have started this blog to have a focused place to post all of my art work, mainly Perler beads now, but anything as my life goes on and I pick up old (or maybe new) crafts. It all depends on where my kicks take me! A little about me: I am in my early 30s, a nursing student at UNLV, and a phlebotomist at a local hospital here in Las Vegas. My passions are hiking and swimming and a love of the outdoors but I am very busy and love Perler beading right now because it's something that people love to receive as gifts, they are quick (relatively) to make, and can be used as decoration in many rooms in a home :)
