This subreddit is for sharing your own images, tutorials, tips, and questions on all things craft related! Before posting please follow these rules:

1.) Be kind and remember the human. Comments that dismiss or insult other users or the craft they share, will be removed. Constructive criticism is greatly encouraged, but remember the constructive part. Comments on a user's appearance, especially those of a sexual nature, creepy, gross or any comments that are similar to that, will be removed and the user banned from this subreddit.

2.) Do not post shop, social media, or self-promotion info/links (i.e. etsy, social media, a shop's facebook, youtube channel, sites selling crafts, sites selling a product, or sites asking for followers/donations/votes) outside of the monthly shop thread. Not as a post, in a comment, or in the description. You will be marked as spam and possibly banned. BUT you may use the flair next to your username to advertise your shop.** This includes posts that have affiliate links to buy items. They will be removed and marked as spam. See the list below as to where you can submit those types of posts.

3.) Blog posts/articles are no longer allowed unless you are posting a free tutorial directly on your site. If you'd like to share pictures of something you've made, you must use an image hosting site (imgur, flickr, etc.), not your blog/personal site/social media etc.

4.) Please limit posting to only one post every 24 hours. Either compile an album on a picture hosting site or post subsequent pictures in the comment section. More than one post a day will be subject to removal.

5.) Video links are not allowed as their own post. Either post a picture of your finished craft and link a tutorial in the comments or post a short clip (under 60 seconds) on an image-sharing site or reddit itself. Short clips are still subject to the no self-promotion rule.

6.) Any poster that is considered "low effort" will be removed. Our subreddit is starting to crack down on low effort posts. When we say low effort, we mean users that only post their own links, only post social media video content, and/or people that do not leave comments or interact in another way with subreddits. It looks as if you post the same link 10+ times to a variety of subreddits with no other interaction. This is behavior of a spammer. If you continue to post like this, you will be banned from the subreddit.

7.) Memes, comics, and similar type of posts are only allowed on Mondays with the 'Meme Monday' tag.

8.) Keep all craft adjacent chat in the 'Craft Adjacent Chat' weekly post.

9.) Surveys are allowed in the monthly shop thread; not as a separate post.

10.) Tag your post with the appropriate flair. Due to a number of users wanting to filter out certain types of crafts, please tag your post with the appropriate flair so that posts don't receive unnecessary reports or automatic removals by AutoMod.

Quick Craft ideas

I am going on a trip in two weeks with two friends for our 40th birthdays! I want to make us all little matching something as a present. I can knit, but not crochet and I would say am medium-crafty. Any suggestions for quickish and affordable cute crafts?

Best Adhesive for 6mm Tempered Glass Display Case?

Hello,

I'm building a 6mm tempered glass display case (90cm x 35cm x 25cm) for croissants on a bar countertop. I need advice on which adhesive works best for strong, clear bonds in tempered glass? I have found some UV adhesives, but they all require use of high power UV light, which just doesn't seem feasible to buy as it would end up easily doubling/tripling this project's budget...

Appreciate any insights or experiences you can share!

Bleach Tie-Dye

I'm bleach dying a sweatshirt for a coworker but i can't seem to get the bleach to work. I tested it on a tshirt and it worked perfectly but I think the sweatshirt is made with synthetic fibers. I tried making a stronger concentration bleach/water mix and left it longer, but it still won't change color. Is there another option for synthetic fibers? Thank you!

Blank sticker sheets you can draw on?

Hello r/crafts,

I'm wondering if blank (white) sticker sheets that can be drawn on with markers, and cut out exist? All I've seen online are for use with printers, and seem like the material wouldn't be able to take markers for hand-drawing.

Anyone know where to find these?

Thanks!

button help!!

i am not that awesome at making buttons and mess up my buttons a bit more often than i'd like. something i'm struggling with right now is that this happened twice while i made this button, in the same spot. it doesn't happen often but i don't understand why the button isn't like. closing correctly? i hate wasting buttons having to take them apart and redo them. wondering if i'm doing something wrong or if it's my machine or if this even matters cus i'm ANNOYED!
