Welcome to Art Hobby Craft : What Inspires you?
Profile Information
- Tell us here... My main art, hobby, craft is ....
Hi, I started Art Hobby Craft to spread the 'word' about paper clay. Although paper clay has been around for many years, it is still not as widely known about as it deserves to be.
Due to the many questions about other hobbies and crafts that I have received from members, it became clear that there are many people looking for somewhere to learn new hobbies and crafts and Artists and Crafts people wanting share their own artistic knowledge and creative inspiration.
You can do that here. So please don't be shy, get stuck in, write about your arts and crafts, hobbies etc and create your own art blog, add your creative photos here or hobby videos to help others discover something new, or readers to discover YOU and YOUR art, hobby or craft work..
Here to learn new hobbies? You'll find a range of tutorials by members in the art blogs section and useful 'how to' books on sale in the craft shop area - Craft Books, some being written by AHC Members, and lots more for you to find throughout the site.
If you need any help or have a question, please message me here on Art Hobby Craft.
I look forward to getting to know more about you and your art work, craft or hobbies.
enjoy, Diane

Patty Kono said… - Thank you Diana for featuring my video. I hope it can help someone.
It took a while for me to figure out how to put all the pictures and information together like I wanted and also for establishing the time, because I thought that shouldn't be too long.
Now I'm still trying improve my English and my computer skills, so I could make other tutorials in the future.

- Thank you Diana for your comments and advice. I really appreciate it.
I felt very proud of seeing my pictures featured. Thank you very much!!!
I'll look for the Rubinas's article. I'm always looking for magazines and articles, I believe we always can learn something new when we are focused in our objectives.
