Valdisal also knows how to knit, crochet, sew, embroider, as well as weave with inkle, card, and floor loom. In addition, she does lamp work (glass bead making), woodcarving and wood turning, and soap making. Valdisa also loves making and donating largess.

What's in a Name
While Valdisa really wanted to have a name that was Norse, she already knew several people who's names were Valdis and she wanted a different version, so she went with Valdisa with the "a" on the end to differentiate herself from others.
