This is the 4th month of the #getyourcrafton challenge! Wow! I can’t believe how time is flying. And the #GetYourCraftOn challenge has been so much fun to date.
What is “Get Your Craft On”?
The challenge is set by 5 bloggers: Domestic Goddesque, Zing Zing Tree, Me and My Shadow, Kids Chaos and Red Ted Art. Each month, one of us hosts a linky party on a specific theme.
We set a theme
We invite you to share your crafts by using the #GetYourCraftOn hashtag on:
- google+
- and a “linky party”
The linky party is hosted by one of the organisers in rotation and this month it is Red Ted Art!
We give you around a month to #getyourcraft on.
Then we pick our top 5-6 crafts of the challenge. Updating our linky post – feature these 5 crafts and link to your sites.
Occassionally… we have a prize…..
We have JUST finished March’s challenge of “Chicks & Eggs” with 53 ideas submitted!! Check them out! A great resource for planning your Easter crafting!!
April’s Theme is GARDEN CRAFTS
Yes, garden crafts… with that, we mean anything “crafty for the garden” or your window box!! e.g.
- windchimes
- bird houses
- flower pots
- plant markers
- picnic blankets
- diy garden games
- weather stations
- …
- …
The list goes on. Think garden, think crafts and then #GetYourCraftOn!!
The challenge ends on 30th April 2014. We will update this post to share our top favourite crafts and give you some “feature” love!!
Now come and join the fun:
Ooh we can’t wait to see the next batch of #getyourcrafton for the garden, we want to be inspired!
Yes!! Looking forward to it too!!
Yay! Really excited for this challenge, I do need to get out in my garden more.
I have just spotted this linky on G+, it all sounds very exciting, I shall link up once my craft is finished 🙂
Hooray! Welcome on board!
A great linky, gardening and crafts are two of my favourite things, so to combine them is brilliant 🙂
I love this linky idea. I am in gardening mode right now and can’t wait to involve our little ones in the fun. Thanks for the inspiration.
Such a great challenge! It makes me miss having a garden even more :-/
Awww so sorry to hear that!! Have you got a window box? Or could you be persuaded to have a go at a Terrarium or similar?
I’m not sure quite how crafty mine is but I have done my best! I do prefer crafts when I get to hit stuff with a hammer anyway 😉
Fantastic projects! Thank you so much for including our Natural Loom!
Thanks so much for featuring our music man Maggy! We loved taking part in this challenge – can’t wait for the next one 😀
Sara, I ADORE your music man!! He is the coolest ever!!
PS next challenge already on Instagram… check the #getyourcrafton hashtag!
