About the Author

As this is the beginning of a new journey for me I'd like to introduce myself. Hi, my name is Anita Christensen and I'm the author behind this blog, the owner of YYC Crafts and also the maker behind everything you'll see here. When I'm not in the studio creating I love to read, write, hike and dance. I did start taking dance lessons in my 40's for jazz, tap and ballet. I've always loved dancing and the lessons opened up a whole new side of myself that I didn't even know existed. 

I'm very much an introvert, I love my solitude and the comfort of home. I do enjoy gathering with friends, and being social sometimes but I really need to know someone before I can get comfortable with them, which makes being the face behind a business difficult. Also being shy, I have a hard time starting conversations or coming up with small talk. Maybe writing this blog will help me be more conversive. Um......what else can I tell you about me. I'm a mom, both of my kids are young adults and I'm a stepmom to three, all adults with their own families now. I have three pets a dog she's a yorkshire terrier named Mocha and two cats, Spice a female brown tabby and Fuzz a male orange tabby. 

My intentions with this blog will be to talk about my crafting, what I do in the studio, some behind the scenes stories. Also I want this blog as an outlet for myself to share me with you. I'll talk about things going on in my life, maybe my point of view on stuff. I'm excited to be here and I want to thank you for being here too. Without you this would all be for nothing. 

See you in the next post,
Anita
