Not really. I tend to stick with glass etching and bead work at the moment for the more craft-type crafts. I also tinker with sewing but I don't enjoy it. I just enjoy the things I make when I sew. (I make my own Halloween costume this year. It was a bright blue cape and a yellow mask with a yellow question mark on the back. I was, dun dun dun DAAAAAAA Enigma Girl! The cool part about it was the cape was snap on so I don't choke to death when it get's caught and the mask was elastic so I didn't tie my hair in it. Easy on. Easy off. Anyway...) I really do enjoy wood working the best though. We just don't have any of the proper tools here though. When I was in middle school, I excelled in Shop class whereas I didn't do so well in Home Ec.

Although, I do like to fix things and am the second authority in my household on building and fixing if I do say so myself. :-D

I really would like to try and "invent" things more though. I just lack the proper collection of discarded scraps. Also, I'm still banned from poking holes in my wall unless it's for pictures. :-( (I put invent in quotes because I just make things that are only really useful to me or amusing to me. There was only one project that I did that would be a great product for musicians but I think someone may have a similar patent which means I probably couldn't get mine. Plus I can't afford it at the moment.)

[Re-reads everything] Wow. What an egotistical rant. :-)
