New Year Resolution

Welcome to my New Year Resolution - after much procrastination and "nagging" by others I have finally done it!  Well half of it  - there will be an Etsy store as well  - but one thing at a time! Obviously there is much, much, much  more to learn for a technology Luddite like me and I need all the help I can get, but I figure this is a good start :)
I am addicted to wool and fibre of all kinds, be it wet felting, needle felting, crochet or knitting. I keep trying to reduce the stash that threatens to take over but somehow it just keeps growing - does anyone else have this problem? What do I do with it all........
Many years ago I was an  Infant Massage Instructor and a Parent Educator as well as being a mother and now a Nana. During this time I developed a lasting  interest in how young children develop and learn and how best parents, carers and teachers can assist each child in reaching their full potential.When I came across  the Steiner/Waldorf range of imagination inspiring toys I was entranced, I believe they have so much to offer and that has become the philosophy behind my craft work. If you wish to find out more about the Steiner/Waldorf philosophy look here:  http://www.steiner-australia.org/
I have many ideas of things to include in future blogs and hopefully lots of good ideas and mini tutorials - am off to work out how to add photos - back soon!
