Pandemic Crafting - Here’s What I’ve Made
4:10 PMWhen I’m a very old lady I assume that my great, great grandchildren will ask me “Bunny (that’s my grandma name) what did you craft during the pandemic?”
This is what I’ll tell them:
I taught myself to macrame using tshirt thread
Made an iPhone holder using binder clips
I made a capsule wardrobe using old flannel shirts (8 shirts, for $8)
Taught myself to macrame a heart.
Made a halter top from a fitted sheet. (The corners of the sheet became the boob cups).
Made a dress from an oversized golf shirt.
Added a macrame heart to a t shirt
Made a cherry picker from an old creamer bottle and picked cherries from a neighbors tree.
Did an indoor weenie roast on the stove.
Crocheted a rug from old bed sheets.
Resized a 5x top down into a tunic.
Used rose pedals to make homemade rose water.
More macrame
Made a custom head wrap for a friend.
Crocheted a GIANT rug (6’ x 6x) from tshirt yarn.
Refashioned a dress into a tunic.
Taught myself to make tshirt yarn - lots of it!!

Appreciate you reading and sharing your story since I can certainly relate and I think others can to
