Synopsis
When stichin’ became bitchin’ and knit cafes began popping up in the trendiest of neighbourhoods, it became clear that crafts weren’t just for grannies anymore.
Host Wendy Russell demonstrates that crafting is fun, easy and a great way to liven up the home, as well as offering up tips like how to knit a laptop bag or reinventing ways to reuse an old tee-shirt.
Russell who is sassy, fun and as handy with a power drill as she is with a sewing machine. Wendy entertains and inspires crafters and wannabe crafters alike with the latest in do-it-yourself home décor – all without breaking the bank.
How about an uber-cool lamp from vintage slides; a 60’s inspired mod room divider; or a poster turned into a stunning impressionist piece of wall art? This is definitely not your mother’s macramé.
These high end designs are captured in glorious detail with stunning HD visuals – a river of resin pools onto a glittered table, silver scissor blades slice through fabric, the blade of chisel shatters a piece of slate; crafting never looked so gorgeous, so lush, so stylish.
