Does the Weather play a role in your craft mood?

I live in Tucson, AZ. The warm sunny desert. Well.... this morning... I woke up to... SNOW! Snow covering the ground. It was 70 degrees yesterday. Today, cold, dreary and snow. This is so odd for Tucson. Makes me want to stay inside and be crafty. I have found a design for an owl purse for a little girl. It is so super cute! Thinking that I may have to whip up a prototype this afternoon under a cozy blanket on the couch. Cold weather makes me want to crochet, maybe a blanket even!

This was one of my first craft passions. Making baby blankets:


What are your hobbies or craft projects when the weather looks like this??

    Though my crafts are just knit and crochet, I do find myself more inspired to do them when it's a bit chilly.

    I get out my nippers and start cutting antique plates for mosaic tiles. EBT member, welcome.

    Wow, I can't believe you had snow in Arizona! I'm planning to learn to crochet soon, and I think your blanket is just beautiful! :)

    I live in Iowa, where the scene you have pictured is a frequent sight. In the summer, when it is HUMID and uncomfortable, I tend to stay in the A/C and do exactly the same that I do in the winter (when I also stay indoors): crochet, needlework, sewing, paper crafts.

    Our weather rarely looks like that...when it does, I take photos.

    When we have snow (which is somewhat rare, but not as rare as where you are!), I knit and knit and knit! :)
