Chain / Freewrite's Prompt by @MarianneEWest

avatar

Upon reading this prompt, I am reminded of the many key chains I made before together with my son, using perler beads. I still have the interest to do them, just that time is limited, I have to focus on helping the children with their homework as well as homeschooling. Doing perler bead craft is time-consuming, from arranging the beads, to ironing both sides to glue them together, to attaching the key chain, took alot of time especially arranging those tiny beads measuring 5mm.

We love our Totoro keychain!

That time, we were excited when someone asked us to make her 5 Totoro keychains. These were huge keychains and she totally fell in love with our crafts. The Totoros measuring 12cm in height.

After these keychains, her friend also fell in love and asked us to do another Totoro keychains for her. She wanted another design as well. We happily made them although really took alot of time.

Which of the above attracts you more?

We have other key chains not yet sold off and are kept nicely in a container. I wonder when will I have the time to manage this side business again from home. Let's see how. Parenting and taking care of home indeed takes alot of time from me, I admire those whom can do so many things on day-to-day basis. But I also do not compare myself to others or being chained by self-pity, just want to be grateful for the life I have, despite needing to take care of a more fragile (going stronger each day) child. Just want to spend more time nurturing them, teaching them, spending time with them, while making sure the house is clean and tidy.

Show you other beads crafts and keychains another time in another post. As this suppose to be a 5-minute freewrite. Definitely, I overshot!
