Nancy's arts and crafts is about creativity and making crafts. I try to research "how to" tips and give credit back to the people who have also found ways to use their talents in cooking, reading, crafts of all sorts, and artistic endeavors. I like to research the internet and give references to websites that are meaningful to the referenced subject.

Examples of some of my recent posts incorporating the above criteria are:

how-to-knit-moebius-scarf
paper-beads-used-in-earrings
how to make beads-and-sequin-ornamental balls
art-in-eye-of-a-needle
