Ultimate Craft Project

I haven't yet blogged about my "Ultimate Craft Project EVAR" and I'm thinking it's high time to do so!
I love crafting, and more specifically D.I.Y. projects. Why buy anything prefab when you can do it yourself? From DIY dinners and desserts, home projects, gardening, crafts... It's so much more interesting to do it yourself and make it your own. I've DIY my own wedding invitations and napkins (twice!), clothing, furniture, sushi, bathrooms... the list could go on.
I admit, I'm often fantasizing about projects I want to do, things I don't have the time or the energy for (and yes, I admit I would have the time if I was more organized or more motivated to do so). But it's still fun thinking about.
My ultimate DIY project - my ultimate craft is my shop. It's been over a year and a half since ink was put to paper officially and made my husband and I proud (and tired) owners of the print shop I'd been running for years. The scars have healed, emotional wounds are no longer throbbing with pain and anger and I feel compelled to write about it. Now the war wounds we received from the purchase of the shop isn't what I want to discuss, but it's just enough for you to know that when I say there's our blood, sweat and tears in our shop - I mean it literally as well as figuratively.
For a gung ho, DIY craft chick such as myself, owning my own print shop is the most ultimate in DIY. I get to make everything! From boring forms and books to really fun and funky business cards, stickers, wedding invitations, napkins...oh my! And we do it all ourselves. From the graphic design to the preparation for printing, to the printing (digital or offset) to the bindery (cutting, gluing, stapling, coiling, booking etc). It's my proudest testament to my love of DIY. We do have a few things that don't get done "in-house". And that's okay. We can't do EVERYTHING, but what we do, we do really really well! Why, just today, we finished DIY labelling a few cases of BBQ sauce. DIY BBQ sauce?! Yes! That's how awesome my "biggest craft project ever" is. And the best part about it? I get PAID to do this! And I get to spend my days getting paid to DIY with my family and my friends. How awesome is that!
