Now this post is a bit of fun but also very cool. I am going to list the ten most expensive craft items on AliExpress. I’m not going to list the exact price item, as it changes pending what country you are from. It’s not in any order so have fun reading and checking out the links: 

Let’s start:

1. The portable room that could be used as a craft room. Ok, it’s a tiny home! But if you or your family had a piece of land, wouldn’t it be cool to have a tiny home? Or better yet, place it at the back of your house in a yard and turn it into a craft room! It even comes with a kitchen and toilet. #winning. Having a tiny home built for a craft room is pretty awesome. 

2. A 9 piece aluminium crochet hook set, in a nice cover. Now you can definitely get crochet hooks and in sets a lot cheaper on AliExpress. But if you want something fancy and in a nice case holder than look no further.

3. You could buy a huge diamond painting 40x50cm x 3. Yes three pieces at 40x50cm. Diamond paintings are fun but too big and they can take years to craft. I personally wouldn’t go any bigger than 40x50cm. It’s a good sized canvas and you will still be able to see the picture easily. 

4. If you want to create a miniature DIY kit home, try this one. I used to make miniatures and you do require a lot of patience and tools to help build it. If miniatures is your thing, then check out this cool miniature DIY kit home. Did I mention it comes with a car? 

5. I have to say this is on my Wishlist and it’s a cool craft scrapbooking album. Check it out for yourself it’s pretty cool and crafty. It’s definitely a fun way to start scrapbooking! 

6. Get hooked on diamond painting and have your own bag holder that holds the 120 drill colours. Not bad! I love a clean way to craft. Just zip up the bag and put away and you wouldn’t even know you were diamond painting. It even has a place to put your diamond painting tools in the bag. 

7. If you love reading, why not get your very own sliding door bookcase. The door is glass, so you can still showcase your books and look at your hobby daily. Reading is super fun and buying a place to store books is important to keep them dust free and in good condition. 

8. I have to say I do enjoy paint by numbers and in the New Year I will be getting back to it. But wouldn’t it be cool to use your own photo and paint it? This link is a custom paint by numbers. You choose the photo, they choose the paint colours to match the photo and then they ship it to you and you can paint it. Imagine painting your beloved pet or a family photo or something fun you saw while travelling like a roller coaster or some rare animas. 

Aww craft is craft, it doesn’t matter the price if it adds value to your craft life then it’s worth it. I hope you enjoyed this blog post!

How I use my home for craft

So my home is decorated by my craft.  For example, I have a craft room where I store my craft supplies and have space to do my craft and then I have in my lounge room showing my craft creations (pictured above) and also storing craft supplies like yarn, where I love to look at and think about the possibilities of what I can do with my craft supplies.  It makes me feel good to come home and be surrounded by my craft.  And it’s ok to never have your craft room finished. For me it’s a work in progress. I am always changing it and my supplies and where to showcase my supplies. This is because my interests change. One month I may be heavily into crocheting so I don’t need a table for that, I can just sit on the couch. I really just need storage for my yarn and crochet needles and my half completed crochet projects such as draws to cater for these.  Another month, I may be into scrapbooking so I do need a table for this, my set of draws for the stickers and tapes and then ...

Crocheting my first blanket and how you can to

Finding a relaxing crochet project for beginners So I decided that crocheting animals etc. is pretty stressful. Not really stressful but not relaxing. A cool end result but I wanted to find something to crochet where I didn’t have to count the stitches or focus on the different type of stitches. So I decided to crochet a simple blanket.  I just wanted to use a small amount of stitches and not count them. I didn’t want to do anything fancy. But I still wanted to crochet. I believe if I could find something to stitch that I could just relax doing it than it was worth it. I started googling a simply blanket planet using single crochet stitch. It’s simple start off with the first row with a chain stitch and then turn it over and do the rest with a single crochet stitch. Brilliant.  Why single crochet blankets don't work without a chain stitch So I started crocheting a baby blanket. It didn’t work out. The sides were uneven and the blanket was all different lengths. So I googled an...
