The reason why I chose this project

The reason why I chose this project is that I like to make things by hand that are beautiful and bring joy to people this project makes me happy because I am on a tight budget and doing this would enable me to save money because laying around the house instead of going the store and spending money, I also feel that this helps the environment because it keeps stuff out of garbage dump.
