crafting supplies overload!

so i bought a lot of stuff mostly threads

sleepless for 24 hours and going strong for the name of crafting!

The event was truly a success and i cant stress enough how happy i am to be able to attend it. i am a self confessed hard core crafter and proud about it! Having an eye and appreciation for handmade things is truly a wonderful thing. crafting is an art and it runs in my veins and im willing to sacrifice so much stuff to be able to continue my passion. i spent a few thousand on the event itself and im cool with it :) i love my money where i can see them. in my crafting stash <3 I learned a lot and will definitely make more dream catchers in the future as well! congratulatons to DMC Philippines for making this wonderful event happen!
