The holidays can ignite a desire to be crafty and talented artificers can be found perusing the aisles of their local craft store, eyes peeled for their next adventurous project to dive into. At the end of the day, they can find glue sticking to their hands and paint under their fingernails, pulling sequins from their hair, exhausted but happy. You’d be hard-pressed to find a gift as heartfelt as one made with your own hands, for your loved ones or yourself. Take a page out of their (scrap)book and find time to connect with your inner artisanal calling.
