Craft Sleuth - Hunting for Craft Projects by Lorna Findlay
Not every crafter is creative enough to come up with craft ideas to use the many supplies that can be found in craft stores. Thankfully, there are people who devote their lives to finding the perfect crafts for you to make at home, and you only need to follow a few simple directions. If you're an avid crafter, however, finding all of these new projects can be tricky-there are a lot of craft projects available that are not good for you. Some crafters are looking for quick and easy projects, while others want long-term projects to complete with the utmost care. Still others are looking for inexpensive crafts, and some are looking for crafts involving a specific technique, like quilting, rubber stamping, or sculpting with clay. Don't worry. No matter what your needs, there are craft projects available for you!
The first place you can look for new craft projects and ideas is online. The Internet is a great resource because it is ever changing and you can often talk directly to the author of the article via email to ask specific questions. Blogs are a great source. Basically, a blog is an online column that is updated rather frequently by the same author. Blogs usually have a specific topic, so by searching for ones about crafting, you can find updated ideas almost every day.
If you aren't connected to the Internet or don't understand how to search well, another great source for project ideas is crafting magazines. You can subscribe to a general craft magazine or one that is more specialized to your specific wants and needs. Good news-if you run a business by selling your crafts, trade magazines are tax deductible! Of course, you'll have to wait a month for a new issue, but crafting magazines still reflect current trends, like blogs and articles do no the Internet.
However, sometimes you just want to learn the basics to a specific craft. In this case, books are a great resource. If you're short on cash, you can even simply borrow them from your local library. You can purchase or borrow crafting books on every subject, and they are great to use in conjunction with magazines or even a crafting class.
No matter what your crafting needs, there are a number of resources in which to find new project ideas. Of course, you also could just walk up and down the isles of your local craft supply store and see if any new ideas come to you!
