Bio
Carissa started sewing, as most people did, as a kid in home economics. She hated it! She hated following a pattern and hated following directions. She wanted to do it her way, her way was better! What got her into trouble then, has helped her to grow a successful business. She never uses patterns and loves to come up with new designs. She is the mom of two, very active, little boys. On the weekends, she is an intensive care unit nurse. Carissa loves her sewing as it gives her a wonderful outlet for creativitiy. She also thinks every woman and mom should have something that they do just for them and no one else. You can also find her on the web under her name, Carissa Black. She has the privelage of having my bags in specialty shops on the East Coast. She is also a proud member of FAM and the CT Etsy street team!

About the only thing I do SOLELY for me is read - I take the time to read on a daily basis. It is my oasis.
I flower garden just for me. I take my time and enjoy studying the nature around me, and also it's my quiet time to create ideas for my music and art.
Just for me? Mmmm...sitting down to read a magazine, running alone, going out for an hour at the spa...I love ME time (whenever I can get it).
I soak in the Bath tub with Calgone Crystals Spa Bath for as long as I want to. JeansandTs@hotmail.com
I sit, have my coffee, and read my blogs! I'm totally addicted!

I've always got a book to read, it helps me wind down after a crazy day!
I clean my house for myself, and afterwards i love to soak my feet and read a good book..
I also write poetry and write in my journal and if all else fails i watch a good movie i love another time.. it doesn't hurt to watch a good movie over and over and over again..
I take long long walks out in Boston, MA taking in all that surrounds me from the water front to the grand architecture of so many fabulous buildings. The museums and all are spectacular.
I enter on line sweepstakes. Of course every now and then I do enter things to give to other people. But it is my addiction.
When I steal time away for myself, I like to go to the coffee shop at night with my laptop and listen to live music... Happens way too rarely, but it's oh-so-nice!
I go to the library and breath deeply of the atmosphere.
I love treating myself to different coffees and teas,sitting back and just taking a moment to enjoy
Thanks
