Host Happenings: Teen Craft Connection Trio

We are thrilled to have another one of our new Summer Season hosts to introduce you to today. You have seen them popping up in their new Promo video and we're excited to introduce the trio of Teen Craft Connection. So let's tell you a little more about these fun teens...

And after you read this post, be sure to view their awesome website Teen Craft Connection.

DeAnna Evans

Yeah, well ... I'm DeAnna, I love to challenge myself with extreme sports  or things that are out of the ordinary. I'm up for trying all kinds of sports, I really enjoy longboarding, water/snow ski or board, hiking, rock climbing and trampoline acrobatics. Once in a while, I like to settle down to access my creative side and use crafting as a form of relaxation therapy. I also love tracking and watching the newest trends, along with finding new aromas and fragrances that smell nice. I currently work at a Megaplex movie theater, after I graduate HS, I plan on pursuing a career in the medical field, preferably to become a family physician.

Sierra Evans

I love to craft, coming up with creative ideas, being me, sitting down to create clever and cool projects with my BFF Cami and being outdoors. I consider myself to be a very natural and outgoing girl. My hobbies are long boarding, riding my bike, swimming and tumbling. I love the beach, sun and anything to do with the ocean, i.e. surfing, California, Florida & Hawaii, etc. My best friends are Cami and my cuz'n Lauren, whom I love to shop with and coordinate style, fashion and clothes. I would like to become an interior designer and architect when I'm older.

Cami Wakefield

Hi, I'm Camille, Cami for short. I think one word that would describe me is unique. I have alot of different sides to my personality. I love gymnastics, and the beach. I have played the violin since I was in first grade, I love scary movies, and my favorite color is gray. I also love fashion and being creative.  My favorite band is One Direction  and my favorite place is New York. I hope I can live there someday and go to Parsons School of Design.  I love makeup, painting, and singing (even if I'm not good at it).   Crafting lets me express my creative side. I think that blogs are a good idea because people can share great ideas and be creative together.

Teen Craft Connection begins airing this Monday, beginning July 9, 2012. In case you missed it, check out this promo video....
