I want the very best of Country Crafts
...wreathmaking, sewing, crochet....
but in a way that appeals to me now in the 21st century.
I'm positively evangelical about this.
Crafts don't have to be out-dated or old-fashioned.
No matter what kind of interior you're after, there's a
lovely piece of gorgeousness waiting
just for you to make....
Okey-dokey, the best way to demonstrate what I mean is to show you just some of the crafts that I've shared at Modern Country Style in previous posts so that you can get a sense of what I'm looking for when I put together a
Modern Country Craft.
