Craft Tutorial Thursday – April 5, 2012
I love writing the Featured Artist posts each week. It gives me an excuse to see all of the great things so many of the folks participating on Crafty Tips are working on. Since, it’s Thursday, today I’m sharing with you some of the great craft tutorials everyone’s been working on. This week there are 4 great projects and a group of free vintage printables. You can learn how to make a jewelry stand, a crafter’s tool belt, turn a boring photo frame into spring decor and make an origami bunny box. They’re all super cool and all of them look doable for even first timers.
Overwhelming Success
How would you handle success if something you make suddenly became the hottest things since Beanie Babies? Would you make the right choices? There’s one Etsian facing this dilemma and it looks like she is doing everything right. She has upped production, avoided over-selling and perhaps created an even bigger demand for her clever earrings.
