Word on the street is that buying supplies and actually crafting are two separate hobbies *cough* But it is a fact that without supplies, we can't craft and the chenille wires and beads sound wonderful. I bet you are going to make many beautiful handmade puppets with them. And I must say it is for sure fun to go craft supply shopping. :D

Congratulations on also getting some writing done, and a lot of it at that, yay! Hope that this is the start of a great crafting week for you.
