There is a romance about diamonds, and once you know their story you will appreciate the diamonds in your life much more. Everyone loves the romantic story about the man with a large ranch who became dizzy with the thought of finding a diamond mine. He sold everything he had, put his family on hold, and set off around the world in search of diamonds. Death caught up with him before he found his first diamond and one of his old neighbors was dispatched to tell the family of his departure. As he was about to leave the neighbor noticed a rock on the mantle and asked where it had come from. “Our old ranch,” he was told. “That's a diamond,” he said. And the old ranch, the one the man had left behind to forage through the world to find his fortune in diamonds, was full of diamonds.

Crafts make wonderful gifts. Now I don't pretend that ANY crafty gift is precious. A star made from popsicle sticks glued together might bring yards of happiness when given from a four-year old, but look rather tacky if you are forty. The gifts you choose to make for others should spring from a craft you do exceedingly well. A good craft gift might be defined as anything you do with your hands that makes your heart sing while you are making it. When the one receiving the gift hears that singing and joins in then you will have given a gift which is priceless. Not all of us knows what a rabbet is, but all of us will have talents which give us an affinity to at least one of the crafty ideas inside this package. I invite you to check out the book marks and dig in. Don't be afraid to try any of these ideas. Each one was chosen for the author's skill in explaining the steps to take. You will probably be pleasantly surprised and how easily you acquire the skills needed for any craft idea that you like. There is a link in each craft article so that you can easily reach the author for similar material.
