Handmade52 is a weekly project that I’m hoping will keep my creativity going through 2011. The idea is that each week (for 52 weeks), I will make something, cook something, craft something, or if all else fails, take a really cool photo of something and write about it here. It’s sort of nebulous by design, because 52 weeks of any one of those things would be a little much, but hopefully all together they will be just right. (And hopefully I won’t have too many weeks where I resort to photos – no promises!)
