Make Your Own

We want to encourage as many people as possible to make their own handcrafted items. It is a very satisfying hobby and can be a very lucrative business as well. Yes, you get almost everything from a store BUT it is not the same as making it yourself. There is a learning curve as with anything and some people have the talent and patient for it and others simply do not. That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t at least try a few.

Once you have the hang of it and have made a few items then you can teach your children and/or grandchildren. Children remember the time you spend with them and learning something together or teaching them how to do things is a great experience. And they will pass it on to their children as well. In the following pages, we will gather the basic information about various crafts, embed a learning video, and of course, we would love your reaction.

For those who would like to share a lesson on any craft idea we hope you will take a minute and type them up, add some pictures, and send them to us. We will feature your lesson on our website with your name as an acknowledgment. Please go to our contact form and let us know what kind of lesson you would like to share and we will get in touch.
