CREATIVE CRAFTS WITH TERRI O
OCTOBER 10 AT 8 AM
EIGHT/KAET-TV

Terri O joins us in our Eight studio to showcase projects ranging from paper crafts, home décor, fashion and holiday ideas. Terri Ouellette, known to her fans as "Terri O," is a two-time Emmy award winning television personality. Creative Crafts with Terri O airs Saturday, Oct. 10, 2009 at 8 a.m. on  Eight/KAET. This special two-hour event can be seen again on Sunday October 11 at 9 a.m. on Eight Create (Digital channel 8.2 using an antenna or on Cox 80).  

“I have always been a huge fan of PBS. I grew up on it and so did my kids. It feels good to raise funds for my hometown station,” says Ouellette who actually got her start in television as the host of a PBS show while in college.

Terri O's outgoing and unique outlook on creativity inspires even the "not-so-crafty" with her "here's what not to do" approach. For more than five years the Craft & Hobby Association has chosen Terri O to show America how to be creative via in studio appearances and satellite media tours.
