Since I took the summer off, I have gotten to do alot of my hobbies.

I wish I could cross stitch. I tried sooo hard with both my little diamond pillows, but had to ask another sister to help me finish it. I dont have patience for it.

Right now my hobbies include:

Reading
Hiking
Gardening
Pottery, I make my own. My mom has a little back house in our backyard and we have kilns and fire them and glaze them. Then we'll paint them up in her craft room in the house.

I too do stain glass making. When I did a internship for Interior Design in college I worked at a Kitchen and Bath design center and the one lady made them so I started to help her, got into it, then went back to college and took 4 classes on it so now I make them whenever I can. We didnt do any churches, but we built a lot for houses people love them around here. Now I make them this summer for my family and friends. Im working on one now with Violets all over it for my own place.

I also have a passion because of my major, I LOVE to restore houses. I am currently taking out the carpet in our living room and restoring the hardwood floor to its original. I just helped my cousin build a sunroom onto his house and then we plastered it and added skylights and added the windows ourselves, now this weekend I am going home to help him paint it, add tiles, baseboards, and cornice boards. I love to do this. I hope to buy a old old old house that can all be restored to its original and then spent time redoing each room.
