How to arts and crafts. Picture of Julie Borel

Well, come on in and let me share with you my personal experiences with various arts and craft projects.

Throughout this site you will find craft ideas, art projects, step-by-step "how to make it" instructions, listings of materials needed, and plenty of photos. You also will pick up pointers about problems I may have encountered as I worked on projects and how I solved them.

My name is Julie Borel. I am not a professional artist or crafter. I'm just somebody who loves working on creative projects. I've been that way all my life. Being creative makes my soul sing!

My purpose here is to share my enthusiasm with you and to inspire you to indulge your own creative spark as often as you possibly can!

The projects featured in my website are geared towards adults and teens with a child-like sense of whimsy and wonder. Some projects also are appropriate for younger children and are perfect for families to work on together.


The slideshow gives you a preview of the creative fun you will find on this website.

I look forward to sharing my experiences with you on my website. I know you will find some inspiring ideas.
