Online Sewing and Crafting Classes

by Kelly Schwarze 1

Want to brush up on your crafting and DIY skills but have trouble finding available classes in your area? Never fear, here comes the Internet to the rescue, yet again! For a monthly fee of $25 — way less money than many in-person resources — you can have unlimited access to the video workshops of Creativebug.

Hoping to be the go-to source on the Internet for art and craft instruction, Creativebug offers dozens of online courses on everything from introductory screen printing to beginner's crocheting to needle-felted Peeps — yep, like the marshmallow candy. If crafting tutorials at any hour of the day from your own home wasn't exciting enough, the site donates five percent of all subscription revenues to nonprofit art organizations.
