You’re about to learn crafts using the best mix of seeing and doing craft instruction that I know..

If you’ve ever wanted to finish each and every instruction sheet you’ve read and ended up wondering what on earth they’ve missed out - then this Step by Step Craft Course could be the quickest and easiest way you have ever found to learn crafts.

Because I am going to show you “failsafe” craft projects that’ll guarantee success at the finish line.

You'll get a Weekly Craft Project  with both Video how to and text each and every week that will show you up close and personal over-my-shoulder shots of how to do each and every action, ever step of the way.  So you can't go wrong.

No way, no how.  Because I've put all the how-to's in!

But before I do that, let me tell you a story of how I was able to put together this magic approach to craft instructions.

"How a Part Time Craft Teacher Responds to a Day Care Plea and Creates  a Winning 1-2-3 Craft Instruction Formula!"

I used to teach craft part time, and one of my roles was working with those with Brain Injuries in a Day Centre in the UK. Many had physical photo difficulties others had mental health issues.

I was engaged to teach on a Certified Practical Craft Course delivering around 20 sessions for one morning a week. Most students came regularly, some only when they were able, but we all came together because

We Shared a Love of
Crafting Together

They loved what I did with them in class (Glass Painting, Metal Embossing, Fabric Crafts etc) but the time soon came when my contract ended. Sadly we all knew that they had no way of carrying on what I had started. So when I left The Centre Manager asked me to think about how I could continue to share what I knew about crafting.

The problem was, with so many volunteers coming to run sessions, I couldn’t guarantee that the people they would get to run sessions would be interested in crafts – let alone experienced crafters.

Even if I left a rough idea of what to do, I was concerned that the groups might not be led to learn the right thing in the right order, the right way. The last thing I wanted was to leave everyone high and dry without a chance of carrying on the enthusiasm for crafts that I had started.

Realising That They Needed Specific Things Written Down …
I Decided To Do Something About It!

And that was to write down all the things I had been teaching in class so that anyone who came to the centre could follow them and get fantastic, repeatable results.

I was determined that they would no longer be dependent on the 'quality' of the volunteer, or the availability of dodgy dog-eared craft books kept in dusty bookshelves out the back.

They had all spent long enough being 'dependent' on others! I wanted to be able to free them to work independently. To give them back some self-management, decision making and freedom.

So I applied my many years of teaching crafts to what I knew about craft instructions. Writing things down, my way, with clear steps, as simple as a 1-2-3. Steps that they couldn't get confused with, and which could, I hoped, give them a never-ending range of craft projects that they could follow without me.

They would be craft instructions that they could re-read when they wanted, start and finish when they wanted.

Instructions they could use any time of day and night with a guaranteed level of success.

I saw them self-directing each and every project that I wrote for themselves, at their pace, in their time. For those with disabilities, particularly, this was a life-changing leap because now they could decide when they wanted to do crafts and were not obliged to go to class only when someone was 'in session'.

The freedom it gave them was astounding and I'm proud to say it was the first time my Manager at my County Adult Education Centre had ever received a letter of commendation from one of her placements.

But “It’s brilliant” they said. “Keep writing”. So I did.

And that was the beginning of writing even more step-by-step craft projects that anyone could follow.

I could actually guarantee that anyone reading and following them – all things being equal, would come to a successful end. The quality of that result, of course, was naturally dependent on the individual’s ability but still

I Could Be Sure That Everyone Following My Formula would Be Successful

No more giving up part way through because they didn't understand it.

• No more "Where am I, what next?
• No more "well that's not what you said last time"…

Because it was all there in black and white (+ a colour photo for starters).

In many ways our crafting sessions together hadn't ended at all - they were only just starting!

Things, I'm glad to say blossomed at that Centre. New staff came and went.
New Centre users joined and left but one thing was constant.

The series of instructions that I had left them were used and re-used many times. And I think it's fair to say that the OCN Practical Crafts Course that I ran gained 100% pass rate - and that's not an easy thing to achieve when you've individuals who can't speak, write or communicate through what you and I might call the 'normal' channels.

It Was So Successful That I Decided To Share
My Style Of Craft Instructions With Everyone

That's right! I decided to apply this never-fail 1-2-3 style of craft instructions to every craft project I tried from then on. I tried them out on my local craft groups through Community Education. And I had a pretty big trial group to test it on.

The great news is that you now get to see what it is that I learned from the Centre and what I learned that many Publishers miss out.

After all, you need to know it's never you who can't do it - if you're struggling with your latest or past craft instructions. And here's where the responsibility lies:

As a teacher I truly believe that it’s my responsibility to get my learners to understand and follow my words. It' s important when I'm face to face with them, but when I'm not there, in the flesh and can only speak through the page, then it's even more crucial.

So I take my role as a Craft Writer seriously. And as a teacher with over 20 years of teaching in Day Care, Schools, and Community Education I've learnt a few things along the way about how we learn. So you're getting the best advice on what to look out for as you follow along with your craft projects.

So here's where we come to my failproof way of learning crafts.
