Every time I make a batch of hand towels, I think, "I am never doing this again. This is too much work." But then, before I know it, I've ruffled and sewn and stitched a few and I think, "These are too cute." And then, I am happy.
Happy knowing I am capable of using my hands. Happy I can express myself creatively. Happy seeing orders being placed. Happy, on occasion, interacting with total strangers. Happy making a little extra money for my crafting budget. Happy thinking of how one of my creations might make somebody else's day.
The whole process is a lot of work, but it sure is happy work.
