It's back!

Crafty Christmas Club is back!

What is it?

A group blog for people making their own Christmas prezzies. A hub to discuss your crafty plans with likeminded people, gain inspiration from other craftsters, share tips and tutorials, and show off your finished goodies without spoiling the surprise to family and friends who might be reading your own blog.

Why would you spend time making presents? Isn't it easier just to buy them?

Well yes, it is easier to buy them. But I know I'm not the only one who feels a little nauseous at the thought of all the frenzied consumerism that goes on during the festive season. Who wants to spend the whole of December battling the crowds in the shopping centre? I'd rather sit at home crafting a little something by hand, investing that extra bit of love and care into it. Stock up on fabric and glitter, invite some friends over to join in the fun, load up your favourite music, pour out the sherry, warm up the mince pies... bliss!

What kinds of crafts does it cover?

Sewing, knitting, paper crafts, crafty food gifts, jewellery, decorations, fancy wrapping, cards... and lots of other craftiness.

Sounds like a genius idea! How can I be part of the fun?

Why thank you, kind sir! Read the blog and follow our progress here. If you want to post to the blog, you can become a member by emailing craftychristmasclub at g mail dot com and I'll set you up as an author. If you've got your own blog, send me the link and I'll add it to the list of members. Ooh and help spread the good tidings by adding the button to your blog:






I don't celebrate Christmas - can I still join?

But of course! If you're making Hanukkah prezzies, Winter Solstice prezzies, or any other winter season prezzies for that matter, do join us!

Join us... join us... join us...

So long for now...

Thank you so much to everyone who contributed to Crafty Christmas Club and made it such a success in 2010. I think we deserve a well earned rest.

We'll be accepting new members from Autumn 2011, so please get in touch then if you'd like to join.

Thanks!

Welcome!

Well hello! Welcome to Crafty Christmas Club!

Crafty Christmas Club is a group blog for people who are making their own Christmas prezzies this year. A hub to discuss your crafty plans with likeminded people, gain inspiration from other craftsters, share tips and tutorials, and - perhaps most importantly - show off your finished goodies without spoiling the surprise to family and friends who might be reading your own blog!

Sewing, knitting, paper crafts, crafty food gifts, and lots of other craftiness all welcome.

If you'd like to join the group, email me on craftychristmasclub [at] gmail [dot] com and I'll set you up as a contributor so you can start posting to the blog. You'll need a Google or Blogger account to do this but that's really easy to set up. If you've already got a blog of your own, email me the link to it so I can include it in the list on the left. At the time of writing, it's just me on my own over there - I'm lonely, please join me!

Happy crafting

Tilly x
