145B4IDIE Posted April 5, 2018 Posted April 5, 2018 OK, crafters, What is it you like to do? Birdhouses, needlepoint, chainsaw sculpting, popular string art, welding crap together? Whatever it is, share it with us here. I like whittling and modeling miniature things (fairy houses, model railroad and such) and want to start making 'steampunk' curios from junk. My daughter is very crafty with those elastic bracelet weaving stuff, painting rocks, beads, and now knitting etc. she and friends set a table out front and sell their creations, and do pretty well. So... what you got.
Chef Jim Posted April 5, 2018 Posted April 5, 2018 Cheese and cured sausages or actually charcuterie (cured meats) in general.
I'm Spartacus Posted April 6, 2018 Posted April 6, 2018 I love to cook, but my main thing is FISHING! Not sure fishing qualifies as a "craft" - more of a sport - but there is a ton of details & strategy involved.
Fadingpain Posted April 6, 2018 Posted April 6, 2018 (edited) Too much stuff to list here; fine painting, wood working, furniture design/fabrication, model making, pottery, bronze casting, guitar making, the list goes on. I enjoy creating things from nothing more than anything. 15 minutes ago, I'm Spartacus said: I love to cook, but my main thing is FISHING!

Then it can be a vocation. If you are into tying your own custom fly fishing lures or whatever, now that's a craft. Edited April 6, 2018 by Fadingpain

Gray Beard Posted April 6, 2018 Posted April 6, 2018 I like woodworking, but I mostly just make bookcases. They’re easy and don’t require much design or imagination.
DC Tom Posted April 6, 2018 Posted April 6, 2018 I feel like I've mentioned this before. Artistic posing of dismembered hookers. 1 1
Augie Posted April 7, 2018 Posted April 7, 2018 Witch? Is that allowed? I’m down with @mead107 on his first line. Not really a “craft”, but a fine hobby!

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted April 7, 2018 Posted April 7, 2018 (edited) Gardening. Especially tending roses and the like. I'm planting a victory garden this year, and may branch out into chicken-keeping next. That'll be fun to build a coop, I think. Plants and animals are so much more gratifying to deal with than people. Edited April 7, 2018 by joesixpack

Keukasmallie Posted April 7, 2018 Posted April 7, 2018 Making frames for my wife's needlepoint items. I use the wooden frames from old curtain stretchers for the frames since the lettering and the numbers add to the old-school aspect of her craft.

snafu Posted April 7, 2018 Posted April 7, 2018 24 minutes ago, DC Tom said: No, penguins. Theyre holding the fish before they're dismembered, and then you substitute penguins because you eat the fish while admiring your work?
