1 week ago by craftsanity 2019 is off to a busy start and I’m thrilled to have some great momentum going. Just got back from the post office (made it there a comfortable 10 minutes before close) and now home to edit a podcast, prep more CraftSanity orders and prepare for a whole new semester of teaching journalism. I’m looking forward to some cool opportunities ahead and committed to early workouts and lots of water bottle refilling. : ) P.S. This CraftSanity mini necklace tapestry loom is available in my Etsy shop.

1 week ago by craftsanity I quietly posted episode 220 of the CraftSanity Podcast earlier this week. It’s a conversation with Beryl Bartkus, founder of Ability Weavers, an inspiring weaving studio in Lowell, Michigan that employs people with developmental disabilities as professional weavers. I bought these lovely towels there. The weaving quality is top notch and the story behind the handwoven goods is even better. I hope this episode inspires you to think about how you can use your artistic superpowers for good.

(The tree’s name is Red, by the way.) The fact that I consider trees to be dear friends in the same way I regard books, it’s no surprise that I got caught up in this story and was shedding jumbo, elephant tears by page 188. The

3 days ago by craftsanity I rescued some overpriced type from an antique shop today. It always makes me sad to see fonts all broken up by people looking to cash in by selling letters piece by piece. But at least these orphan letters will get a chance to get inked again. : ) #letterpressprinting #woodtype #type #fonts #letters #craftsanitypress #printer #orphantype #letterpress
