Top tips for getting crafty
- Choose your craft: Knitting, crocheting, card making, pottery making, painting, drawing, baking or making care packages
- Sell your crafts: Share your creations by selling them to friends or at a craft stall. Ask friends and family for a suggested donation and send them your homemade item once they’ve paid in their money. If you make and sell your crafts as part of a business, there are a few rules to follow. Get in touch with the team at community@breastcancernow.org for more information
- Hold a craft and chat: Pick a date, time and venue and invite all your friends and family along, to learn a new skill, in return for a donation to Breast Cancer Now. This could be at home, in local café or town hall. Just remember to get permission from the venue and tell everyone what supplies they will need to join in the fun
