I am a 55 year old mom/gramma who loves to craft, just recently getting into Primitives/Folkart. In the Fall of 2005, I made myself and my 3 daughters each a mason jar candlelight and they loved it, and I found myself making lots more country/primitive items for the girls.One day my youngest, 24 says to me, “Wow mom, you’re becoming quite the crazy craft lady!” Thus, Krazy Kraft Lady was born. I had no clue at that time what a blog was, had heard of the term of course, so I did a search and the ones I found were just like diaries! How neat!I decided to create my own blog, for talking about my crafting projects, craft show experiences, lots of photos, and some family stuff thrown in for a little spice. If you love primitive/country crafts, or love crafts in general, I hope you’ll visit my blog.
