Crafting: Tutorials, Patterns and Kits on Etsy

Some of you may know that I recently busted up my right paw, not so good for someone who works with their hands. But luckily, I have full use of my fingers and some mobility through the rest of my hand and though it is painful, I can still work, just slower than usual. With that being said, instead of sharing of my own craft project today, I thought it was a good time to share some from other Etsy sellers.

In addition to the wonderful handmade and vintage items you can find on Esty, there are also numerous DIY craft kits, tutorials and patterns available. Some give you everything you need while some just tell you how to do it, but regardless of your skill level or interests, there is a little something for everyone from sewing to candles to cheese! Here are just a few kits, tutorials and patterns you can find on Etsy and some links at the bottom to continue your search for more:
