I’m so excited about the impending launch of the new, Craft Corps website, coming Monday May 4th! In commemoration of the one-year countdown until the Craft Corps book (featuring conversations with super-star crafters like Carol Duvall, Amy Butler, Jay McCarroll, Jennifer Perkins and more!) hits shelves, we’re going live with the blog/community pages.
I hope you’ll join me in celebrating our community by connecting with fellow crafters, reading their stories and perhaps, telling your own. Stay tuned!
xo,
Vickie
P.S. Join the Corps now, by signing up for the Craft Corps Weekly newsletter! Each week, you’ll be introduced to a new crafter (via their favorite memory or anecdote about crafting)–from knitter to woodworker– and become eligible for a whole slew of exciting giveaways, discounts and other, crafty goodness!
Vickie Howell is an on-air host, designer, author, entrepreneur & community builder in the D.I.Y. genre.
