How Can You Mend a Broken Heart? Why, Crafting, of Course!

The Bee Gees crooned, "How Can You Mend a Broken Heart?"  That was 1971 and we are still asking the same question today.  My answer, crafting (good friends and good food help, too).

My friend, Katherine, is recovering from a broken heart following a breakup with her longtime boyfriend.  She's sad and needs cheering up.  Although she is attending law school in Minnesota, she is a native Texan through and through.  She is also a fellow crafter and blogger (or, is it bloggess?), talented baker (her monster cookie recipe is the bomb!) and a genuinely kind person.  


Shh, surprise!  I decided to make Texas-shaped crayons to bring a little piece of home to Katherine.  Texas, in every color of the rainbow, and then some.  I dropped a set in the mail to her with high hopes they will lift her spirits.

UPDATE:  The Texas crayons were a huge hit with Mlle Katherine.  Read about it HERE.
