Today I am continuing my cross-blog conversation with Heather Mann of DollarStoreCrafts.com
So far, Heather and I have gone back and forth about what our favorite crafting tools are, what crafts our boys like, and what has inspired us. Heather has recently asked what’s my favorite part of working on the Crafts for Kidlets blog.
Before I answer Heather’s question, I just want to say something about her last answer. I love the Dollar Tree too! When I lived in the city, all of our local dollar stores were also independently owned and unreliable. Moving out of the city and into Long Island, was one of the best things my husband and I ever did for our family. Finding a Dollar Tree less then a mile away from our house was the other!
Now to answer Heather’s question: since July I have been working as an intern on the Crafts for Kidlets blog for Kelly McCausey. I love that I am learning a lot, and improving my writing techniques. As essential as that may be for what ever I choose to do in the future online, it’s not my favorite part.
I actually could not have chosen a more better blog to intern on, because the best part about working on this blog is being able to do all of these great crafts with my kids. At the same time that this blog is a learning experience for me, its an entertaining experience for my kids that I just don’t think they would have had, had I not been working on this blog.
Would we have done crafts anyway without the blog? Of course. Would we have done so many or with any of the themes and series we have done? Probably not! So with all of the great things that working on the Crafts for Kidlets blog has to offer me, the best part really is the joy that it brings my kids (and I could never thank Kelly enough for the double value her blog brings me).
Now Heather, here is my next question for you:
Where do you think the Dollar Store Crafts blog will be in five years? Will you still be writing it? More often, less often, more guest posts, etc.
