Handmade Store: PamelaJean

Hello - I am native of Southern California, a wife, a mother of three children and three grandchildren. I love the life I have and enjoy each day to the fullest. The first craft I can remember making were Kleenex tissue flowers in the 1950's. I have been hooked on crafts of some kind ever since. I love creating useful beautiful decorations. My grandmother taught me to knit and crochet when my husband was working the night shift in the 1960's. Several years ago I discovered the beautiful new yarns and fibers while looking for buttons to finish off a knitted sweater. I was off and running, experimenting and having a ball.

From time to time I take a break from knitting and crocheting. I enjoy working with paper and designing cards and bookmarks using photos I've taken and beautiful papers.

Right now I am making paper making Angels - Each one is different and has her own personality. What a fun time I am having.
Each ANGEL is hand made by me. What started out as a Christmas Craft has developed into an Art Project. It's like playing with paper dolls. I sit in my craftroom with small pieces of paper, yarn and beads wondering what to create. Should the new Asian print Angel have braids or curls? After some contemplation I decide to crochet a yarn headpiece with braids, add the right color ribbon, a little bead here and there. A darling little angel has appeared right before my eyes. OH THE EXCITEMENT.


Thank you for stopping by.
