What sort of crafts will be on Nerdy Girl?

I'm currently going through screeds of photos looking for one's I've taken during the making of different projects and it's reminding me of all the crafts I've tried in the past, but set down to one side for some reason or another.  This blog will be an excellent excuse to pick up those things again and explore the techniques and try to improve on the first-attempt results.  


Perhaps you're like me and you find an idea on the net and you give it a go with, perhaps, not the exact same materials or ingredients, but you figure you'll fluff it and see how it goes.  Unexpected results go with the territory, but who ever gets it right on the first try?  When it comes to crafts, I don't like to think in terms of 'right' or 'wrong', but simply varying degrees of self-satisfaction.  That is why we do these things, isn't it?  Not to get it 'right', but for that feeling of accomplishment and self-satisfaction.  As I often say to my friends, 'It's cheaper than therapy.'  


But I digress in my progress.  I mean to tell you a few of the crafts coming up on this blog that will be attempted, reattempted, photographed and tutorial'd.  


Crafts I am rather big on at the moment are cold porcelain, reusing plastic bags, naalbinding, fabric stencilling and, of course, soapmaking.
