Green Eyed Girl Crafts Blog Feature

One of my first followers that I didn't know was Vicki from Green Eyed Girl Crafts. She always leaves the nicest comments and encouragement. She's not only nice, she has a great craft blog! I am going to try to do blog features once a month and here is our first one. Vicki was nice enough to answer some questions so that we can get to know her better and she shares her top 3 favorite crafts she has made.

  

1. What's the story behind the name of your blog?

My mom used to always say that I had the most beautiful green eyes and that I got them from my Grandma Carole (I am also named after her... Vicki Carole) who had passed away before I was born. So I thought Green Eyed Girl Crafts would fit me perfect... When I gave my blog a "make over" it was important for the cute character on my header to look like me... she has big green eyes and her brown hair is pulled back into a pony tail which is what mine looks like as soon as I am home from work.


2. Why did you start your blog?
 
I love to craft ... and I thought it would be fun to share my ideas with other crafty bloggers who were so willing to share their talents with all of their "blog friends". I love getting to meet so many amazing women over the past year.

3. What are your 3 favorite projects you have made that you featured on your blog?

Family Subway Art - I had the image floating around in my head for several weeks before I finally put it together... I love it. It has all of my family first... middle and last names.

Ghost Family - This one just turned out super cute... and was my first project I actually sold for money.

Dallas Cowboy Cross Stitch Pictures - My family loves the Cowboys... and I wanted to make my dad something special...besides... what can you get the man who has everything? I gave him the "Cowboys" for Christmas and the star for his birthday...

4. What is your favorite type of craft?

Scrapbooking and Cross-stitching


5. What is something odd that not many people know about you?
 
I'm a hopeless romantic... and think every day should be filled with hearts and love! I have a heart shaped waffle iron and can't help buy anything heart shaped!
 

Thank you Vicki for answering my questions!

 

Here are my 3 favorite crafts from your blog....

1. Altered Key Rack

 

 

2. Cowboy Sign and Football

 



3. Halloween Subway Art
