A new skill is sometimes hard to develop. I tend to look at someone who seems to have it all together and then end up not even trying. I can't decide if I'm a perfectionist or not. A perfectionist wants to do things perfectly, but do they give up if they can't do it? I don't know, but I totally wish I knew how to crochet. Over Christmas, I decided to simplify my decorations, mostly because I couldn't access them and didn't want to, but I started over from scratch with my deco. One of the things I wanted to do with my tree was a pom pom garland, you know, because all pine trees have snow balls on them. But anyway, I was inspired by this blogger and her farmhouse perfection at Fairview Farm.
I could handle the basic crochet chain and a hot glue gun. It's not perfect, in fact it's a bit like a Monet...it looks better from far off. But it was fun...I'd like to learn more than the basic chain stitch, I found the whole thing of it, yarn and hook, very therapeutic. I need to give up on my expectations of something needing to be perfect and just do it. I may very well find a new hobby.
Do you struggle with perfectionism?
