Craftonians, it's Joleen here with another episode of my Happy Time Craftcast! I just had the absolute best time chatting with my pal Andrea Nelson.
Andrea and I go way back, so it's always so fun catching up on what she's been up to lately in the art world. I have to say, I was pretty amazed hearing how her God's Glue tutorial took off like wildfire online! Who knew a little black paint and glue could cause such an uproar.
We also had a really interesting discussion about finding a balance between teaching others and focusing on your own creative projects. As someone who struggles with that myself at times, it was neat hearing Andrea's perspective.
I have to say though, one of my favorite parts of the episode was getting to ask Andrea those classic interview questions from Inside the Actor's Studio. Did y'all know her favorite word is "shenanigans"? And it turns out sewing just isn't her thing - who would've guessed! It was really cool learning little tidbits like that about her.
I can't thank Andrea enough for being such a wonderful guest. I know all you listeners had as great a time as I did. So check out the Happy Time Craftcast Episode 6, “Art from the Heart with Andrea Nelson”
