Beads

Andrea B. · 9 projects 15th July 2012

I really can't answer this question. Every day I have another favorit. One day it is knitting or crocheting, and the other day I can't live without my pencil or my sewing-machine. But I think that's the reason why I love crafting so much. Every day when I wake up I can choose from almost a million different craft supplies, and that makes my days very varied and fun! It's going to be a supprise what my favorit of tomorrow is!

Felt, you can never have too much.

I can't live without a pencil. I use them for just about everything. You can draw with it, I use them as clay tools and to open little ring's for a bracelet. If I couldn't use a pencil I think I had no nails left.

I couldn't live without paint! Paint adds colors to everything. Whether it'd be a vivid color or a dull one; it always adds a nice touch to things that are plain Jane.

It's such a versatile craft supply; you can use it on just about any surface using any type of design in mind! And the thought of mixing colors to create a brand new color, just makes paint all the more fun to work with. You can never go wrong with paint!

This is actually one of the most difficult questions I've ever been asked. I feel I should say something practical or sensible but the thing which keeps popping into my head is 'shiny things.' Any shiny things. I love shiny things. I need shiny things in my life.

Lucy N. · Independence, Missouri, US · 2 projects 12th July 2012

Probably my needle and thread I love to sew things like sock monkeys other cool trinkets. Even though i poke myself ALL the tinge i can still make some cute things, that my cats eventually attack!

At the moment it would have to be my crochet hook! I've taught myself to crochet and finding it wildly addictive. It's a most portable craft - despite my teenage children banning me from taking it out when they're with me!

Hella · Rotterdam, South Holland, NL · 60 projects 11th July 2012

I think the most important thing for me is my pillow book. I can't craft with it but I need a place were I can store all my inspirations. In my pillow book I put pictures and drawings so I don't forget the things I want to make and I don't forget my interests and passions.

I could not live without my creative brain. Most important craft supply

Ichigo M. · 13 projects 11th July 2012

Embroidery floss. I can make so much from it, from a cute felt purse to a 5-color woven bracelet!

Sandra L. · Newark, California, US · 38 projects 11th July 2012

I absolutely could not live without my wire. I use it to make all sorts of everything! (and I use the brass wire from OSH or Home Depot because it's so much cheaper and still pretty!)

Laura · Chandler, Arizona, US · 133 projects 11th July 2012

I couldn't live without my colorful pens.

There are many supplies I love, but my favorite thing is to personalize cards to send people.

Michelle M. · Chicago, Illinois, US 11th July 2012

I couldnt live without my needle and thread. Using a machine would be great and would take less time, but id rather have something that would fit in my purse.

Can't live without my paints

cattus 11th July 2012

Jennifer M. · Raleigh, North Carolina, US 11th July 2012

I couldn't live without my hands. They are my ultimate craft tools.

Paint, definitely. Be it poster, fabric, glass, for wood or for walls, I need paint. Colour is so important to me and that personal touch I love adding to my projects is almost always with paint

Emmyann07 · Sacramento, California, US · 49 projects 10th July 2012

hmmm... for overall crafting I'd have to say paint. Whether decorative or functional, its amazing what fresh coat of paint can do to transform the look of a piece. A-mazing.

teresa.hillery · Flemington, West Virginia, US 10th July 2012

my cricut, I'm always making window decals or tee shirt irons. I LOVE that thing!

Rdtewks · 4 projects 10th July 2012

I for one could not live without faux fur. It is a great material to work with and the out come is usually epic!!! Except it sheads everywhere.=)

Amanda M. · Northfield, Minnesota, US · 78 projects 10th July 2012

I love embroidery floss. So many uses.

Jen G. 10th July 2012

I could not live without yarn! I love to loom knit!

Tara-Danice P. 10th July 2012

Glue,for..well keeping things together!

Serena P. · Clarkson, Kentucky, US · 5 projects 10th July 2012

I could not live without thread. I create a lot of things by sewing so having plenty of thread is important. I also have a habit of ripping fabrics (clothes, blankets, etc) which shows that thread comes in handy a lot.

Ashley P. · Hatfield, Pennsylvania, US · 604 projects 10th July 2012

I couldn't live without paper. Whether I'm drawing, making a necklace pendant out of paper and cardboard, or just jotting down an idea for something I want to make later, paper is ultra useful.
