Hullo Crafties!
I need help and I hope that perhaps at least one of you is out of control bored and would like to help me.
I am in a long distance relationship and in 5 weeks my personal geek has birthday. I thought I'd just buy him some geeky stuff but when I was doing crappy detective work as to what to get him he said he jsut wants something I made. HA! When I searched through memories I found this awesome idea - the box with slips of paper saying why I love him but I have a problem - I haven't been crafty since I left junior high and as I moved to the USA recently I really don't know the things you have here at Micheal's or JoAnn's or their names in English and I hate asking shop assistant for help cause I always have the feeling they will make me buy half of the store and take the other half in leasing.
ANYWAYS - if any of you could tell me what kind of paint I should get so it would be easy to put on a wooden box, if there is any "crafty" name for some nice paper I could cut into slips and so on, you know I jsut need a shopping list.
To anyone who would spare a moment and help me out - big thank you, and I'll be forever grateful and share all my candy :)
