I'm Back & Sharing What I've Been Up To

 Hello everyone.  I'm sorry I've been MIA in March, but dealing with the loss of my husband and trying to keep our business going has been overwhelming.  I have been trying to get back into crafting a little at a time and it has been theraputic.

I'm not sure how many of you still visit my blog or YouTube channel, so if you do please leave a comment below letting me know that you are still here.  Thank you 😊💗🤗

In March, other than my Tuesday 2 Minute Tips & Tricks, which seem to be my top viewed videos, I also did....

Adults & Crafts Paint Pouring Kit Unboxing

The Adults & Crafts kits are great for those that want to try out a new craft without having to spend a lot of money to get started.

Creating With Non-Toxic Resin From ArtResin

I love this resin!!!  Because it's non-toxic (more info on that in my video) you don't have to wear any special protective gear, just gloves so you don't get it on your hands.

But April looks like it's going to be a busy month on my YouTube channel, Janie - The Craft Princess 

This is what I have that is public at the writing of this blog post but there will be more as the month goes on.

Cardmaking Fun With A 3D Pop-Up Center

Paint Pouring With A Straw Technique

InLoveArts 4 Year Anniversary Giveaway!

Quick & Easy Masculine Card Using A Stencil

Adults & Crafts Candle Kit Unboxing

I have more videos scheduled all month, of course including my Tuesday 2 Minute Tips & Tricks, so be watching for them!

As you can see, I do a variety of videos....something for everyone....so when leaving your comment below, please tell me which videos you like best.  And if you don't watch my videos, please tell me what you would like to see here on my blog.  I know I can't please everyone, but I want to do my best.

Thank you all for stopping by and....

HAPPY CRAFTING!
