Craft Sayings

Home is where the heart is.

A KITCHEN PRAYER

God bless my little kitchen
I love it's every nook
And bless me as I do my work,
Wash pot and pans and cook.
And the meals that I prepare
Be seasoned from above
With Thy blessing and Thy grace,
But most of all Thy love.
As we partake of earthly food,
The table for us spread,
We'll not forget to thank Thee, Lord
Who gives us daily bread.
So bless my little kitchen, God,
And those who enter in,
May they find naught but joy and peace
And happiness therein.

DIRTY DISHES

Thank God for dirty dishes,
They have a tale to tell.
While other folks go hungry,
We're eating very well.
With home and health and happiness
We shouldn't want to fuss.
For by this stack of evidence,
God's very good to us.

A home is a roof over a good woman.

Let's pour some happy spirit, in a great big mixing bowl;  Then add a few ingredients, and lo! A casserole!

Good character, like good soup, is usually homemade.

A truly happy marriage is one in which a woman gives the best years of her life to the man - who has made them the best.

When you feel dog tired at night, it may be because you growled all day.

No matter how much I scrub and comb,

No matter what high hopes I start the day with,

My kids always look like the kind of kids,

I wouldn't want my kids to play with.

Every mother knows which side the bread is buttered on--

The side the kids drop on the floor.

If you must use a hammer, build something.

Patience is a necessary ingredient of genius.

Shouting to make your children obey is like using your horn to steer the car.

You get about the same results.

Don't be afraid to ask dumb questions. They're more easily handled than dumb mistakes.

Charity begins at home, but it should not stay there.

"My wife," said the husband, "let's me go out once a week with the boys.

I'm a Scout Master."

Keep your words soft and sweet; you never know when you will have to eat them.

If you carry your own sunshine with you, there will be fewer dark places in your life.

A candle loses nothing by lighting another candle.

Improve time, and time will improve you.

Did you leave a trail of kindness today?

Some Grandmas have limousines and the biggest homes you've ever seen.

But our Grandma is the best by far, because she's got a cookie jar!

The dollar doesn't go as far as it used to, but it gets there faster.

Oh weary mothers mixing dough,

Don't you wish that food would grow?

Your lips would smile, I know, to see,

A cookie bush or a pancake tree.

Even much worse than a storm or a riot, is a bunch of kids who are suddenly quiet.

One good reason why a little boy gets so dirty, he's closer to the ground.

A hundred men make an encampment, but it takes a woman to make a home.

Just about the time you think you can make both ends meet, somebody moves the ends.

Joy is not in things, it is in us.

With every rising of the sun,  think of your life as just begun.

The bonds of matrimony aren't worth much,

Unless the interest is kept up.

Brows may wrinkle, hair grow gray--

But friendship never knows decay.

We never skimp on groceries

Our family is well fed.

That's why our added poundage,

Is called the high priced spread.

He who laughs last probably didn't get the joke.

It matters not

If it's red, green or yellow.

There's nothing you can disguise

Like a bowl full of Jello.

May we always be the kind of person whom  others will feel better knowing.

Death is not extinguishing the light; It is putting out the light because the dawn has come.

Craft is perfected attention.

Creative hands are rarely tidy.

~~~

Don't touch my craft room, 

it will confuse me and screw up my world!!

~~~

I'm creative. You can't expect me to be neat too.

My husband lets me have all the craft supplies I can hide!

~~~

My husband said if I buy any more craft supplies 

he would leave me...

Gosh, I'm going to miss that man !

Old crafter's never die, they just get more bazaar!

One craft project, like one cookie, is never enough !!

Soapcrafters know how to have good, clean fun !!

When I learned how to craft....I forgot how to cook !!

~~~

Crafts are here, crafts are there.

My crafts supplies are everywhere.

I really should clean this mess,

But I like it, I confess.

Floor is littered, chairs are piled,

Kitchens looking pretty wild,

On the table, counter too,

Seems that any place will do.

Hall is stacked with cartons high,

Filled with things folks like to buy.

Garage is full, but so far.....

There's still room to  park the car.

I never have an idle day,

New ideas come my way.

Don't know yet what I'll create,

But my imagination's great.

My family smiles, they don't complain,

Although at times I am a pain.

But when all is said and done,

I really am a crafty one.
