As someone who's been part of the craft and DIY industry for years, I'm aware that creative people like me come from diverse backgrounds.
Some may be a multi-crafter like me, while some may be adept with only one type of craft.
A few other crafters may have monetized their passion for crafts or anything handmade, while others wish to keep it as a hobby and pursue it to relieve boredom or cope with stress.
If you're a crafter or into DIY, I encourage you to continue making time for your creative pursuits this 2025, regardless of your background and the direction you may wish to pursue in the future.
To make crafting more fun, don't hesitate to spend on a cute or chic planner, with pages that are filled with enough space to keep track of your tasks and works-in-progress.
You can also jot down a list of your craft materials and expenses, post reminders of Zoom workshops or dates of craft bazaars.
Crafters and DIY Enthusiasts: What Could Be Your Goals for 2025?
You don't need to aspire towards those goals that sound lofty if you wish to maintain the fun and thrill of creating.
For most of you who's into crafts or DIY only as a hobby, your list of goals may look like this:
- Finish a couple of works-in-progress.
- Start a diamond painting of a friend's pet portrait so you can give it on their birthday.
A few other goals you may have are:
- Get started on making birthday cards for my family members and friends.
- Gather all my excess craft supplies and bring them to a craft swap.
On the other hand, if you do decide to take things further this 2025 and do something different, your to-do list may look like this:
- Take photos and submit tutorials to craft blogs.
- Take courses in search engine optimization (SEO) and affiliate marketing to monetize my craft blog.
- Join a craft fair.
Regardless of what your goals are, you need a planner to carve out time and schedule your crafting.
Here's a list I've rounded up with the best planners from Shopee.
I have also recommended additional items that can help you keep track of your crafting schedule.
