Our Must Have Picks for 2015

It's taken months of careful planning, but we've finally compiled an extensive list of our top picks for you to craft with in 2015. With options like these, there's really no way to leave without feeling inspired!

Fun with Origami. Looking for ideas to recycle all that paper you have? Origami is the obvious choice. This book will take you from novice to amazing-expert-swan-maker in only 1,286 pages.

Banana Slicer. When you're crafting, you might get hungry, and there's no use dirtying up your hands in the middle of a project, even when you're just really craving a banana. This tool is the obvious choice for those times where you're in dire need of a snack.

Scrapbooking for Dummies. Admit it, sometimes it's hard to get a page started. You need outside help, and this book claims to have it all (just like all the other books in the For Dummies series - you can tooootally trust them!). The photo below is just a smidgen of the amazing ideas you'll find within these pages: Lesson 33 - "Practice Your Penmanship."

Patterned Toilet Paper. Because you're on the john, after all, but with these, you'll be sitting prettier (literally).


Knitting with Dog Hair. When knitting, it's important to know where your source material comes from. Why not turn to your canine companion? Of course, you'll probably need a long-haired breed for this one.

The Rainbow Sponge. And we've saved the best for last! If this tool isn't in your craft arsenal yet, you're seriously missing out. The Rainbow Sponge is a craft phenomenon that has myriad uses and is just amazingly fun to use. The most important question you may ever ask yourself: do you love to wiggle? We sure do.

We'd love to hear your top picks for the year! Let us know in the comments!
