When it comes to paper crafting, not everyone creates in the same way.<\/span><\/p>\n

Some crafters love quiet creative time in their craft room. Others find the greatest joy in sharing creativity with family and friends.<\/span><\/p>\n

That’s why I’m beginning a new series called <\/span>“Let’s Find the Right Tools for the Right Crafter.”<\/b> Over the next several weeks, I’ll be highlighting different crafting styles and sharing thoughtful product suggestions that support the way people love to create.<\/span><\/p>\n

Today we’re starting with <\/span>The Family Crafter.<\/b><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Who Is the Family Crafter?<\/b><\/h3>\n

The Family Crafter isn’t focused on creating the most elaborate project or learning the newest technique.<\/span><\/p>\n

They’re focused on creating memories.<\/span><\/p>\n

They’re the parent setting up supplies at the kitchen table, the grandparent crafting with grandchildren during visits, the aunt who loves making holiday projects with family, or the friend who gathers people together for creative afternoons.<\/span><\/p>\n

For them, crafting is about connection as much as creativity.<\/span><\/p>\n
