Hi Reader,

Yesterday was the first day of the Craft Discovery Summit, and it was so much fun! There were so many creative projects that I’m now tempted to try… as if I didn’t already have a long enough list. 😂

A few especially caught my eye: soap making, sticker making, and polymer clay jewelry. I would love to give those a try!

And now I can’t wait to see all the lessons coming today.

If you haven’t joined us yet, the Craft Discovery Summit is happening August 10–14, and it’s FREE! 🎉​

Here’s what’s happening throughout the week:

Day 1: Cut, Shape & Create — Monday, August 10​
Cricut projects, polymer clay jewelry, soap making, suncatchers, Ikebana floral art, and more.

Day 2: Paper Trails — Tuesday, August 11​
Junk journaling, birthday cards, snail mail crafts, upcycled journals, scrapbooking, and more.

Day 3: Stitch & Fiber — Wednesday, August 12​
Crochet, macrame, embroidery, hand-stitching, knitting, and more.

Day 4: Draw, Paint & Letter — Thursday, August 13​
Zentangle, calligraphy flourishes, watercolor, caricature drawing, Procreate design, and more.

✨ And don’t forget Day 4 is my day! I’ll be teaching at the summit on Thursday, and I would love to have you join me for my class.

Day 5: Quilt, Felt & Fabric — Friday, August 14​
Quilting, tufting, needle felting, no-sew fabric projects, and more.

And here’s one of the best parts: each session is FREE to watch for 48 hours after it goes live.

So if you plan your week, you can catch all the sessions you’re most excited about without paying anything.

If you miss a session or you already know you’re going to want to come back to these projects later, the All Access Bundle gives you permanent access to everything.
