Your Home for Handmade Craft Ideas

Are you looking for handmade craft ideas for yourself or your children?

Are you a crafty person, in the best possible sense of the word?

Do you hoard bits and pieces of craft materials that may come in handy for a certain project? Is a craft shop like an Alladdin's cave to you? Do you always have to be busy creating something? Want to try something new?

It sounds like we are on the same wavelength! And Handmade Craft Ideas is the right place to have fun!

We hope to build your treasure chest of craft ideas that you can dip into when you want to try something new or expand on skills you already have.

Together we will create handmade gifts for friends and family. I'm sure you have experienced the delight on someone's face when you gave them something you had made especially for them. Nothing can beat it can it?

My mum always taught me there is as much pleasure in giving as in receiving and this is certainly the case when you have spent time creating something for that special person. It shows you care and its great fun!

Of course we won't give everything away, some we will keep for ourselves to decorate our homes or help us to celebrate special days in our lives.

We will find ways of spending time with our children enjoying many handmade craft ideas, having fun and teaching them at the same time. What better way to create lasting memories of childhood than making things together.
