everything has to start somewhere....

so i'm probably a little behind in the diy terminology (i only just learned about that recently too), but i just read about zakka and what it is.  i now love this word which is a japanese term for anything small that is used everyday , ie. household items, hand bags etc... and the big thing of course is handmade zakka.  now that i know the 'in' term for everything that i've been doing till now, i will not fail to use it as often as possible...
i know this is a strange beginning to a blog, but i had to start somewhere. i intend to post as much of the zakka i make as possible and hope that someone out there will give me some opinions.  it's always more fun to be creative within a 'community' which, when you are a mother and artist working away in your own studio, doesn't happen very often.
