Hello to all members, passers-by, curious onlookers, and shy lurkers, and welcome to our regular daily check-in post. Just leave a comment below to let us know how your current projects are progressing, or even if they're not.

Checking in is NOT compulsory, check in as often or as seldom as you want, this community isn't about pressure it's about encouragement, motivation, and support. Crafting is meant to be fun, and what's more fun than sharing achievements and seeing the wonderful things everyone else is creating?

There may also occasionally be questions, but again you don't have to answer them, they're just a way of getting to know each other a bit better.


Today's Question: No question today.


If anyone has any questions of their own about the community, or suggestions for tags, questions to be asked on the check-in posts, or if anyone is interested in playing check-in host for a week here on the community, which would entail putting up the daily check-in posts and responding to comments, go to the Questions & Suggestions post and leave a comment.

I now declare this Check-In OPEN!

I started cleaning up the flowerbeds today. Didn't get as far as I planned, but we have company and I needed to help with their project more than I expected. I also tidied in the garden shed.

Mother-in-law and I looked at possible paint colors. Having trouble as the sample cards are few and the online tools for the paint company are poor. We want to paint the garage soon as a test, then the house next year.

The house is very tall, it will definitely be difficult. The garage is tiny and there's only 2 bits I would need a ladder to reach.

Yes, it's probably better to test on the garage first. ;))
Good luck!

The color tools are so bad, I'm half sure I won't like the first draft!

Good luck with picking a paint color.
