I would venture to say we’re not the only ones with creative resolutions for the new year. If learning a new skill is high on your list, then taking an online crafting class with our friends over at Creativebug will get you on your way! Joining the ranks of talented craft mavens (and STC alums) Natalie Chanin, Liesl Gibson, Kata Golda, Gretchen Hirsch, Kristin Nicholas, Heather Ross, Debbie Stoller, and Creativebug editorial director Kelly Wilkinson, our talented STC Craft Publishing Director Melanie Falick is offering tutorials for beaded leather wrap bracelets, yarn dyeing, and DIY knitting needles.

And for your daily dose of inspiration, be sure to check out how Melanie has made a career out of her love of making things and desire to help women tell their stories in this lovely video introduction.
