Johnnie Lanier

My name is Johnnie, and I am the craft blogger behind the scenes here at SBLC.  I heart running, peanut butter, my family, my psycho Jack Russell, his obese Beagle sidekick, crafting, iced lattes, the color orange and blow pops.   If I lived to be 1000 years old, I don't think I would get to all of the creative techniques that speak to me.  I come from a scientist background, and feel I have lived two lives.  The first one ended when I left the day job to give the artist a chance to emerge.  A monster was unleashed.  I never imagined I would be a creative entrepreneur, or that I would be so in love with paper, polymer clay, upcycled jewelry and reclaimed wood projects!

This is a place where I share what I do, and get to know other crafty DIYers.  I hope you leave here inspired.  Say hello to me if you are inclined to.  I love hearing from you.  Some of my most enjoyable projects have been inspired by you and your encouragement.  Thank you.
