It's National Craft Month in the USA and not only is Craftsy offering discounts on classes, it's also giving a craft focused charity of your choice $1000.00. Anyone who purchases a Craftsy class in the first 2 weeks of March is entered to win the chance to give. I think it's wonderful that Craftsy is taking on charities and is supporting the gift of learning this way, so I'm taking this chance to share a class I am currently taking with Craftsy with you. Actually, I have always loved taking Craftsy classes, and I've been watching some painting & cooking ones, but I think most of my readers are total bag making addicts - so I've got an AWESOME one I'd like to share with you!

When people ask me what I do, I tell them that I am a Craftsy instructor, and a lot of them don't know what that is about - shocking ;-) - so if that is you, I'll just tell you about it briefly before I jump into the bag class.

What & Why:
Craftsy is an online learning platform where you can take classes from cooking, photography to gardening and cake decorating. 100's of classes!! When you purchase the class you get to watch your high definition videos from anywhere. You can watch them on the computer, iPad, apple TV or even your phone!  You can come back to the lessons as may times as you like and they will always be in your account. I think the best part about Craftsy is that if you are not happy, you can get a full refund so there really is no worry there. It's a great opportunity to learn something from the experts on your own time. I have been doing a bit of traveling lately, so I watch my painting classes in the hotel, or at my Mom's and then when I get home, I try to get started on my projects. Oh and the classes are interactive, so you can ask your instructor questions and share project photos!

A Class I think YOU would enjoy!
