About Me

Hi! I’m Amanda.

I’m a (fun!) 20-something, married to my one true love, Erik. We live in rural Eastern Oregon with our little dog, Lexy.

Erik and Amanda (It’s us in Grand Central Station.)

In February we added a new little member to our family, the baby Olive:

I love dancing, singing, and remembering that confidence is the key to not looking quite so dumb. Not over-confidence, mind you, but just regular old confidence. Or at least I hope it works that way. Otherwise I’m in trouble.

Here at the blog I’m doing just what it says: learning to create, one craft at a time. I’m trying to be crafty and share my projects with you. I like to post easy, (obviously) beginner projects. Not all of us are natural crafters, but we still like to create. Plus, you’ll find some tasty recipes. Because, if I do say so myself, as bad as my sewing is, I’m a pretty good cook.

So hit the RSS button, and maybe you can help me out with some of my projects. And be sure and check out the Best Of page – it’s a great place to get started around here.

And if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to comment (I read all of them) or e-mail me at amanda(at)ninthstreetnotions(dot)com.
