Craft Book Month - It Begins!

9/3/2013

1 Comment

 
I wanted to pop in today to let you all know that Craft Book Month is here!  This great event is hosted by Craft Buds, basically you pick out one of your craft books (and you know you already own a ton) and make something!  Super simple, great fun, and you finally get to use that book that is gathering dust on your shelf.  I started making a simple list in my head and figured that I have made five projects from craft books this year and I'll be back on September 11th to share my latest creation on my stop of the blog hop!  All details of this event can be found below, I do hope you decide to join in!

It's time for the 3rd Annual Craft Book Month at Craft Buds! This year, we're excited to celebrate all month log with a blog hop of your inspirational craft book projects, a  crafty contest, free patterns and prizes!
