Signs that Crafting has Become More than a Hobby

Some people dabble in crafts, and are just as likely to pick up a book as a glue gun on our free days. But for some, crafting becomes a passion, sometimes almost an obsession. Here are a few ways to tell if you’ve gone beyond hobbyist or even devoted professional crafter to complete craft case:

You know you’re a Complete Craft Case… when your garden holds more handmade signs, ornaments, step stones, birdbaths and other craft projects than it does plants

You know you’re a Complete Craft Case… when your youngest child leaves home and you skip straight past the empty nest syndrome to converting their bedroom into a craft room

You know you’re a Complete Craft Case… when you eye everything discarded item you see. in yard sales, thrift shops and even the neighbor’s trash. in terms of its creative recycling potential

You know you’re a Complete Craft Case… when your definition of FWB (Friend With Benefits) is the pal willing to lend you expensive crafting tools you don’t own yet

You know you’re a Complete Craft Case… if you win $100 playing a lottery scratch card game and head straight to the craft supplies store

You know you’re a Complete Craft Case… when you start thinking about Mod Podge projects for your garage door

You know you’re a Complete Craft Case… when people are so used to seeing you with leftover glitter on your clothes, hands and face that no one even comments when you forget and go to a funeral that way

You know you’re a Complete Craft Case… if you’ve ever stayed up past your bedtime, called in sick to work, or skipped one of your spouse’s work events in order to stay home and finish a really great craft project
