The Craft Club years ago was a pretty stuffy, dull affair. You would sign up for a monthly book or activity kit and wait for it to arrive by snail mail. The process was simple and the surprise was everything.
There was something exciting about the unknown thudding onto your doormat. Many a coffee was sipped whilst thumbing through the monthly Craft Club offer.
These days we want something more immediate. The Internet feeds our need for instant gratification. We can choose, pay and download in a matter of minutes.
With this amount of choice it is important to choose the kind of Craft Club that meets your interests.
- Do you want to receive something through the mail or will you be equally happy holding something you print off from your P.C.?
- What about delivery options?
- Can you manage to keep up with weekly crafts or would a monthly package give you more time to get things done?
When Book Clubs first came along I was one of the first to sign up to a regular monthly post delivery. You need to weigh up how much value you will get out of your Club. The regular 'deal' may sway you, or you may be tempted by other subscription features.
Whatever it is that gets you to sign up, be sure to give it your full attention. Allow yourself time to devote to your crafts, whether that is reading, playing, or serious making.
Enjoy the anticipation, and the doing. Share your experience with others. Many folk enjoy crafting together. You may like to do the same with your package.
The commitment may help you to devote yourself to time out. A weekly or monthly project could speed up your learning time. And you may well find yourself mastering a chosen technique faster than if you did craft 'when you could'.
I tell myself that my time crafting is not a luxury but a necessity. It keeps me up to date and helps me chill out too. If you need to justify your time out, that is fine too. Make sure you give your time to a Craft Club worthy of you. Check out their details and consider if they sound like people you could put your trust in.
If they make the grade, they are likely to have more that a Craft Club to feed your crafting appetite.
