I make things

I like to make things.

My constant question is, "Why buy it, when I can [buy the supplies and] make it?"

Here are a few examples:

Knit headbands:

Christmas wreath:

Lace detailing on dress/shorts:

My wedding bouquet/boutonniere:

Dog house:

Colored pants:

It makes me happy to create.

Lonely

When my best friend is gone I feel like Antipholus of Syracuse:

He that commends me to mine own content

Commends me to the thing I cannot get.

I to the world am like a drop of water

That in the ocean seeks another drop,

Who, falling there to find h[er] fellow forth,

Unseen, inquisitive, confounds h[er]self.
