Craft Challenges

We love craft challenges!


We generally have two sorts of challenges at The Crafty Retailer:
Crafty Throw Down and Craft Warrior

The Crafty Throw Down is all about you.  We put together a scrumptious package of materials and you do what you want with it. You keep the finished project to wear or sell as you see fit, just send us a picture to share.


Next Crafty Throwdown will be announced April 27, 2011

CURRENT CHALLENGE:  
Felted Cuff (closed)
Metamorphosis (participants will be randomly chosen May 18.

The Craft Warrior challenge is all about charity.  We put together a scrumptious package of materials and you do what you want with it.  You DO NOT keep the finished project, rather, it will be offered for sale on the CraftWarrior Etsy site.  All proceeds will benefit the Special Operations Warrior Foundation.

Next Craft Warrior Challenge will be announced June 15, 2011
