What Happened to the Creative?

An excellent rant from The Impatient Blogger... concerning a trip to her local craft store, and the future of crafting in general...

A snippet...

"But have you seen these craft kits?! They’re oddly uninspired. What’s with the felt jewelry kits where you don’t even make the felt? What’s with the 70s era felt animal puppets? Why is it all so...lacking in personality? Is it just me, or don’t you feel that it’s all so perfectly perfect you don’t want to take anything off of the shelf? Where’s the creative? Where’s the soul? It’s all so planned out for you, there’s no room for your input. Is this really where crafting is headed? If so, I may have to jump off of the train."
