Craft/Project Withdrawal

What are the symptoms of craft/project 

withdrawal?

I'll tell you my experience. I'm taking care 

of my daughter Kim in Texas because

 she broke her foot and required surgery. 

She has 2 dogs and stairs and can't put

 any weight on her foot for weeks. I'm here

 tending to everything and keeping very busy. 

Now yesterday I needed to do something 

Valentines-ey. There was nothing to work 

with; no wood scraps, no glue, none of that

 "saved stuff to use for a project someday". 

What did I find? Cardboard from a box and 

red tissue paper left stuffed in a gift bag. 

Good enough. 

I cut the cardboard into a heart, tore the

 tissue paper, and made the glue from flour, 

sugar, water and oil. Desperate times. 

To hook it on to the nail already in the

 wall I bent a paperclip and taped

 it on the back. 

You could embellish it in all sorts of

 ways. Add lace paper doily to 

edge or add do-dads to the heart. 

This is just the emergency craft. 

I'm sure there are some loose buttons here somewhere...

Cheers!
