Announcing Crafttuts+: Teaching Everything Craft and Handmade!

Announcing Crafttuts+: Teaching Everything Craft and Handmade!

We’re excited to let you know about the latest addition to the Tuts+ family — Crafttuts+!

Crafttuts+ is focused on teaching everything crafty — fundamental craft skills, decorations, ceramics, crochet, jewellery-making, embroidery, candles, paper-craft, knitting, woodwork, printmaking, as well as how to market, sell, and promote your craft work.

Whether you’ve never even wondered about your crafty side, or consider yourself an expert, we’ve got you covered! Keep reading to learn a little bit more about what we’ll be offering on the site…


It’s Craft, but Not as You Know It

It’s probably simplest to explain what you won’t find on Crafttuts+. We won’t be publishing half-baked tutorials with poor photography, incoherent steps, and mediocre outcomes. Nor will you find the type of craft projects that your nan might be interested in…

Crafttuts+ is all about teaching you how to embark on exciting craft projects that you’ll be desperate to try out. We’ll be publishing amazingly high-quality, clear, and visually impressive tutorials that are simple to follow. As well as fun one-off projects, we’ll have several sessions that take you through the basics of different types of craft — so you’ll have a solid place to start learning techniques to build upon later.

We’ll be publishing a combination of step-by-step written tutorials and screencasts/video lessons. In most weeks we’ll be publishing 4-5 high quality tutorials, so make sure to subscribe/follow Crafttuts+ below so you don’t miss a thing!

    Is this an april fools joke?

    • Cayoub88

      That usually occurs in April, the fourth month of the year. On the first; to be exact.

      • Quest

        I am sure he knew that but I got what he meant as I am sure you did.

      • Cayoub88

  • Tom

    wtf?

  • Fernando

    Really? I have a friend that sells alpaca yarn and he keeps telling me knitting is attracting younger people. Maybe this is not a crazy idea but I don’t like it next to my geeky stuff.

  • JoeMoe

    LMAO……oh wait you guys are serious…..ok then

    I agree with another poster. I don’t think this is a bad idea for a blog, I just don’t think it belongs next to the geeky stuff.

    If you make a servertuts, I will forgive you though ;)

  • Felipe

    I could go for some arduino projects.
    that’s a craft and its handmade… right??

  • arnoldc

    Reminds me of that song from Sesame Street.

    One of these things is not like the others,
    One of these things just doesn’t belong,
    Can you tell which thing is not like the others
    By the time I finish my song?

    Who came up with this idea? So not a a fit for Envato!

    As a dev who has no interest in this new subtut I am happy to see you guys taking your love of learning new skills and branching out into an entirely new realm. It might not be for me, but learning new skills is a lifelong endeavor and should be encouraged and taught. Good on you and the envato team.
