Great Gift Idea: Make a “Start A New Hobby Kit”

April 26, 2016 by Katie Smith Leave a Comment

Are you looking for a fresh DIY gift idea or something creative to donate as a silent auction item? Check out this fun “Start A New Hobby” kit that Stephanie, from the blog Swoodson Says, made!

Stephanie made hers an English Paper Piecing styled kit, but you could easily change this up for just about any craft/hobby! I personally would love to get a scrapbooking gift basket as a gift!

This is great for gifts but it’s also a fun idea for any year-end fundraising events or ways for creative businesses to donate and raise awareness about their site/craft.

Independent Crafters Information

On the Indie Crafts section of CraftGossip I like to support other indie artists by posting tips about running a handmade business, blogging and other helpful information. Once a week I try to feature handmade shops to showcase their work. I also like to share trendy, popular DIY's that I think are amazing and hope you do as well. If you are an Independent Artist or want to start a handmade business, this is the place to find resources. Or if you just love DIY's and everything crafty I hope you'll find some fun projects to make and be inspired by the artists I feature!
