These traditional rural crafts are not just for the fairer sex. We will also talk about ancient crafts that are slowly loosing favor with the younger generation and which have been carried out on homesteads for years, such as thatching and hedge layering. Both of these traditional crafts have been carried out for thousands of years in England. However, these sorts of crafts are slowly dying out, including American crafts.
and many other arts crafts which we will write for you from time to time.
So visit often and don't forget to visit our Country Store where you will find all your craft supplies for your latest Arts and Craft project.
