Quick Tip Tuesday


 If you have a JoAnn store in your area, now is the time to shop while there is still a decent selection.  They currently have between 20 and 40% off with Christmas items at 70% off.  My tip is to shop in person because almost everything on the website is considered "sold out," and they will not be restocking.  I used to work part time at JoAnn as a second job.  I made some extra cash to support my craft habit.  I had to quit when COVID hit, though.  I really loved that job. 

Now is the time to stock up on fabric and notions.  In my area, there really isn't an equivalent, so I will miss JoAnn.

Quick Tip Tuesday


 Regardless of what type of craft you do, I would invite you to join a group of like-minded indivuals on Facebook. You can learn a lot from other crafters, and people in groups are usually kind and genuinely want to help each other.

I belong to groups for card-making, sewing, scrapbooking, paper crafts, and sublimation.  You can find groups for crochet, knitting, candle-making, soap-making, glass etching, rock painting, or any number of craft-related topics.  You're sure to learn something, and it is less intimidating than trying to contact a content creator or expert separately. Give it a go!

Quick Tip - Mistakes

 


Today's quick tip is to allow yourself to make mistakes.  For this card, I had to do the sentiment three times. 

Like Goldilocks, the first one was too big, the second too small, and the third just right.  Sometimes I worry about wasting supplies; then, I remind myself it's only paper and a little bit of ink.  Mistakes can often be an opportunity to learn, so allow yourself to make them.


Quick Tip Tuesday

 


I'm back!  I've been indisposed for the last month or thereabouts.  We had a death in the family, and we're still grieving, but I'm back!

Today I have a tip that can benefit every crafter!

Use a kit!

There are kits for just about every craft you can think of, with pre-cut materials that save you a lot of prep time.  They are great for beginners and experienced crafters alike.

There are kits for scrapbooking and card-making, of course, but there are tons of other craft kits out there.  Some suggestions are soap making, candle making, diamond painting, quilting, knitting, crochet, and embroidery as well as wood crafts, resin, even doll making.

Here are some great kits I found at Blick Art Materials.  I love Blick because all of their products are discounted!
