Are you a fan of arts and crafts? If you've been following us on Facebook or regarding our posts here, you've probably heard about our #ArtsyThursdays and #CraftyFridays sessions, which we officially launched last week! 

People love arts and crafts. Some do for the sheer love of it and some just really want to learn to do something else aside from the projects they are so good at already. It's always a fine idea to learn something new and learning new crafts every once in a while is indeed a great exercise of creativity. In this article, we have five craft idea projects that you can get started today! Are you ready to find out what they are? :)

Did you know that almost 8 in 10 people are willing to quit their jobs just so they can learn a craft? 

At least that's what this article says and among the respondents it fielded, they said that learning a new craft is therapeutic for them - a great way to counteract the daily stress of an office job. But more than the calmness and relief it brings, learning a new craft has so many things to offer. Check out our five reasons below! And if you have more to add, we'd love to hear them in the comments below :)
