    Such affordable projects! I Remember when I was in Elementary school- our Church had a yearly Craft Fair ( my parents were in charge!) and you had every kind of crafts sold…popular for the 60’s and 70’s. I vividly remember my Dad doing Packing Tape transfers and making bookmarks,etc. That was and will always be a popular medium! Thanks for the reminder!

    Ijust realised something so profound : some people are like Packing Tape: They are more than they seem to be, jutst like the seemingly humble packing tape, they hide a million hidden talents and uses. These Packing Tape people are right under our noses, waiting to be discovered, yet will only reveal themselves to those truly worthy, appreciative and likewisely valuable. And you, dear Deidre, is utterly the Mother of all Packing Tape people!!!! Do you actually everhave time to vacuum or scrub the kitchen floor??Please tell me you are not even there so fabulously efficient? Somewhere you must have a little weak place????

    I'm new to Deidre's World and just the dozen or so episodes I've seen I say to myself each time "SHE NEVER CEASES TO AMAZE ME"!! I will BE SOOOO grateful to get this house sale complete, find my new abode (oh how I DREAD the in between time but keep trying to tell myself to look at it as an "Adventure", (yes, an Adventure of sorts, but NOT what I'm in need of necessarily at at 52 w/health challenges due to MS) anyway, I keep my mind looking forward to the time in months to come, when I'm settled in somewhere new. But anyway my mind's goal that keeps me going is to get SETTLED & start my CRAFTING THERAPY again!! I've been too long without it already and I am mentally focused with my "eye on the Prize" of getting crafty again and Deidre's going to be of an IMMENSE help to me in this area!! Well, break's over for me, for now. Nov 18 is approaching faster than I'm ready for! Wish me being ready on time please! DEIDRE: You're TRULY a GEM!
