DIY Crafts

Craft is part of my life and here is a gallery of my DIY projects. I love creating with my own hands, I love having art and craft sessions with the kids and I love letting our imagination run free. The sense of joy and accomplishment we derive from every finished project is just indescribable and only inspires me to keep going, even though it can be very challenging now that I have three lively kids to look after.

I've compiled our past projects into this craft series titled "Creativity 521" - it means 创意我爱你 - which I've kept going since 2012. Here are the step-by-step tutorials and craft ideas that I wish to share with you, so click on them to learn more. Hopefully, you will be inspired to make your own crafts with your kids too! Remember, when it comes to creativity, the sky's the limit!
