New Home and Garden category!

July 20, 2010 by Amanda Formaro

Hi everyone, my name is Amanda Formaro, and I would like to thank Craft Gossip for opening up a home and garden channel so I can share with you some of the amazing things I see each day! There are some extremely talented people out there sharing tutorials on how to jazz up your home, yard, and garden by using your own two hands. From creating a beautiful wreath out of scraps of fabric to refinishing a china hutch, and everything in between, I hope to share with you some impressive projects. Who knows, maybe you’ll be inspired to jazz up something of yours as well! And of course, if you find one that you think fits here, please feel free to send it my way! You can email me at [email protected]

I’ve been crafty all my life, sketching as a teen, painting in my 20’s, lots of different craft projects in my 30’s, and for the past ten years I’ve been making crafts for kids. Since starting my blog, Crafts by Amanda, I have discovered a new world. A world full of talented people willing to share their how-to’s and where-for’s, and so I hope to bring them to you as well.

I have quite a few projects to share in the coming days, so I hope you’ll be following along with me. 🙂

Thanks for welcoming me to Craft Gossip. I hope you’ll tell your friends if you enjoy what you see!

    This is great! I looked through all of the posts so far and am so glad to see this new category. Came over since one of my favorite blogs (Meridian Road) was featured.

    I will be starting my garden soon for the year and look forward to new ideas. I also need storage ideas. I have a large yard with a small area to store items.
