Hi, I'm Jessica! I love to craft, and to host parties using things I've made. I want you to see that my house isn't perfect (just look in the background of some of the pictures!), my crafts aren't perfect, I make mistakes (but I can tell you how I fixed them in the tutorials!), but I love to craft, and I love to share my crafts. I put a lot of effort into my parties because that's what I love to do. If you're hosting a party and are here for ideas you can pare back what I've done; do what works for you and you can still host an amazing party. I hope to give you the ideas and the steps you need to make an excellent party. Most importantly: DON'T STRESS ABOUT IT! It's meant to be fun, and if you're not having fun then just stop. Have a cake and some time together, because when it comes right down to it, that's what really matters. Here are some more details about me: I am a mum of three, super-happily-married-and-in-love wife, singer (Soprano, Masters in Vocal Performance), homeschooler (I still can't believe that sometimes!), choir conductor, and, very most importantly, Christian. I love the Lord my God with all my heart, all my soul, all my mind, and all my strength (Matthew 22:37). And everything I do I (try to!) do it for the glory of God (1 Corinthians 10:31). I hope you can get a sense of that here at But First We Craft. We are not aiming for perfection here, we are aiming for a job well done. Happiness through using the gifts that God has given me...in this case: crafting! If you'd like to know more about Jesus please send me a message on the contact page. I'd love to tell you more! I hope you enjoy your time here at But First We Craft, and that you can find some crafts or party ideas that you want to try out. Thanks for coming!
