13 Signs You're (A Little) Too Obsessed With Crafting

Crafting: that one activity that conjures images of elderly grandmothers and aunts, and home economics teachers, is now your territory.

Here are 13 signs you may be (a little too) obsessed with crafting:

(1.) It was initially just one type of craft, which you could have learned from school, your grandma, a summer craft workshop, or just something to relieve boredom and keep yourself preoccupied. 

Little did you know that that would pave the way for other crafts.

(2.) You buy just as many organizers for your craft room as craft materials. 

(3.) You feel like a kid in a candy store whenever you walk into a craft store.

(4.) While other singles in their 20s and 30s are on Tinder, Bumble, and Coffee Meets Bagel, you spend hours upon hours organizing your mood boards and looking for ideas for future craft projects on Pinterest.

(5.) You picked up 3 valuable skills as a crafter: upcycling junk, reusing excess craft supplies, and repurposing old stuff.

(6.) You can't help but judge subpar crafts a little too harshly.

(7.) While you initially spend a lot on craft materials to make gifts for relatives and friends, you realize that it's more cost-effective in the long run. 

(8.) The surface of your table never stays clear for long.

(9.) You really get deep into the terms of the crafts you're into. When someone mentions "crop," you don't immediately think of fashionable crop tops. Because in scrapbooking, to crop means to trim away areas around a photo. 

(10.) While others binge-watch their favorite series on Netflix, viewing craft tutorials has become part of your routine.

(11.) You enjoy looking for good bargains at thrift stores. You once made a pair of faded denim jeans look new by sewing on funky cloth patches.

(12.) Everyone raved over the costume that you wore to the Gatsby-inspired ball, from the head dress that you DIYed down to the fringes of your dress. 

(13.) You have jars filled with buttons of all colors and sizes, excess thread, ribbons, and twine.
