" I was at Becky's Crafty Day last month!'

I was crafting with Becky and some other Scrap-A-Holics members at her clubhouse in the far western suburbs of Chicago.

I played in an art journal. Later, I did some knitting and crochet.

Great time, as usual! Thanks for having us, Becky.

'WOYWW - My Neat and Tidy Table - huh?!'

by Mary Lou 'LuLu' Haynes

Howdy and Welcome,

After the Scrap-A-Thon retreat I hosted during Halloween weekend and the holidays, my table was a disaster.

I finally had a chance to tidy up a bit recently.

LuLu's Art Studio - Northern exposure - Chicago IL, USA

And I actually sat down and played in a couple of my Art Journals! But mostly I've been practicing my knitting and crochet - which I think are great for cold weather.

Want to see more studios? Head on over to Julia's blog - click here.

Thanks for stopping by - and check out my FREEBIES on this blog!!!
