Hypothetically, speaking, I could possibly be joining a Taylor Swift themed crafting group online next month.

I’m not very good at crafting at all.

Like, I’m normally a paint by numbers kind of girl

…or sometimes I will do wine and paint nights with lots of wine 🍷

But Ive been assured that these crafts would be totally doable for anyone since it’s all mapped out.

Now, if hypothetically I do join this group, would any of you want to join with me? The group would be around $5 to join plus materials.

Sounds like so much fun!

Morgan Bauman

Would if I could, but my joints are too bad to do crafting anymore…

carly powell

What type of crafts do they do?

It's a cool idea, but I can't/wouldn't do it. I would love to see what you make, though!

Morgan Bauman

It’s really my whole body. Y’know how when you’re double jointed, sometimes people say, “Don’t do that! You’ll get arthritis!” or whatever? Well… I researched it as a kid, realized it wasn’t causally connected with arthritis, and carried on doing double jointed tricks. But it turns out they were kinda right…because what it DOES is turn loosey goosey joints into scar tissue. 😅 Doctors who have physically examined me confirmed I’m stiff and sore because my joints are mostly scar tissue now. So…for anybody double jointed who might be reading this…stop doing the tricks! 😂

Hypothetically, they’re possibly doing some simple crafting with materials. Possibly, maybe, still in process. Truthfully I’m just excited about it and I’m slowly convincing them to host it online because I think it would be a total blast to chat and follow along.

Omg!! That’s terrible! I had no idea! I’m gonna stop anyone I ever see doing it. Thank you for letting me know.

Morgan Bauman

They might not believe you, haha. I know I tried researching it to see if it was true (…twenty or so years ago…) but at the time there was nothing available. My BIGGEST advice, though, is don’t just push through exhaustion after an illness, and definitely never ever try G.E.T. for ME/CFS. I developed a serious postviral condition after catching swine flu and continuing to work hundred-hour weeks. Basically Long COVID about a decade before COVID-19 even existed. What doesn’t kill you does NOT always make you stronger…sometimes it gives you a total and permanent disability. Oops. So, in short: don’t overtax your joints and don’t overtax your body. Don’t be a dumdum like me!! 😂

I'd love to, but it depends on the Day it Takes place:)

Amanda Drescher

It’s an interesting idea but I already crochet and I don’t have any more room to craft in my tiny apartment beyond what my yarn supply already takes up 🤣

rapid-ren

I already have too many hobbies 😂😭😮‍💨 I hope you have fun, though!

Morgan Bauman

Yep, EDS runs in my family. I figured more people would get ‘double jointed’ though, since that’s what I heard growing up. Also, you might want to get checked for SIBO if you’re having tummy troubles—it can be a mechanical issue with hypermobility. Not for everyone, but worth knowing about, I figure.

Maddie

I think that sounds like a lot of fun! Do you by any chance know the price range of materials? I do have a lot of craft stuff at home already but sort of abandoned all of my hobbies because of work related burnout, would love to get back into it!! (also, is there a specific day of the week for it, or if it changes, is it okay to not make it to every meeting? I work shifts and am always in a bit of a fight with my manager about my schedule 😅😭)

Angie H

I love crafting and love Taylor Swift - worlds colliding! I'll do it!

✨Megan✨

I'm down for ANYTHING creative, ANYTIME! Count me in! I'll make room in the schedule!

Eimi Galvan

Oh I'm interested but what kind of craft would we be doing?

Jennifer Adame

I love crafting anything so I’m definitely interested
