My love for crafting really comes from my love of family and friends.  I was very lucky to have 3 talented grandmothers.  They each taught me different skills but all of them taught me how to put love in all the things that I make.  That is how I came up with 4 Crafty Critters as a name.  The 4 represents me and my three grandmothers but it also represents me and my three daughters.  We are originally from the midwest and so the critters are what we would call our crochet dolls and animals.  Also, I am a bit of a quirky nerd that loves to create things that are colorful and fun.  I started to sell my creations because apparently there are a lot of quirky nerds that like what I make.  I truly appreciate all the love and support for my little craft business.
