Arts and crafts are my Roman Empire. I’m always thinking about what I can create out of materials like paper, stickers, and glue, or how I can turn my average school poster into an overdone art project. I wonder how I can incorporate a crafty lifestyle of mixed media into my everyday routine. Expressing my artsy side to my peers, family, and friends by decorating water bottles with mass amounts of stickers is one of my strong suits, and my friends and family can always expect handmade gifts for their birthdays. Being crafty affects every aspect of my life, and my artwork can help shape my life as a future teacher. So much of my personality is brought in through arts and crafts, and I’m thankful for that.
