I have really been enjoying this new hobby. I am someone who loves to work with my hands and do some artsy things in the evening to relax or while I am mindlessly watching TV. This has been a really fun new addition to my collection of crafty hobbies! The kits are sooo well put together and make the learning process easy. If you have been thinking about trying something like this, I highly recommend you take the chance and do it! :)
