A new website for a Happy New Year!

A new website for a Happy New Year!

I’m in the middle of a little blog reconstruction – most notably because I’m launching a new site.

This is a “soft launch” right now, to just get the word out and line up a few more teachers (the ones I have lined up will be posted soon!). The concept of the site is to provide basic classes on a variety of crafts and crafting methods….embroidery, sewing, painting, etc. All with a focus on recycling and reusing things we might otherwise discard and throw away.
It came about because I felt there was a need for one-on-one handholding from teachers to really help students learn the basics. I know there are plenty of you out there who are masters at all kind of crafting, but a few of us still lack the basic skills necessary to thread a sewing machine. And if you happen to be out somewhere that they don’t offer a ton of classes or (like me) are just more comfortable with the self paced nature of the internet, then this may be for you!
Right now, I’m looking for more teachers, and ideas for subjects. If you have them, feel free to email me: info@helpinghandmade.com !
