Members could post a picture of their finished project, maybe tell how they did it, even include a weblink to a specific project or general hobby. Basically, anything you do/make after a trip to a craft store, home improvement store, or hobby store.
Example of some things I do:
make soaps from lye, water, and oils
make lotions/creams from scratch (oils, water, e~wax, other ingredients)
home improvement projects (floor tiling, countertop tiling, painting, drywalling, cabinet installing, built a wall, linoleum flooring, plumbing)
wood furniture stripping and restaining
Other people might:
make jewelry
crochet/knit
woodworking (making from scratch: cabinets/furniture/toys/etc)
scrapbooking
home improvement projects (tile, paint, stain, repair?, masonry, install new window)
landscape
toy/model train scenes
candlemaking
papercrafts
floral arrangements
holiday crafts
model train/car/airplane/ship/dinosuar
You get the picture. Members could post before/after pics if appropriate, or just an after pic if it is a creation from scratch.
I think most of these show up, if at all, in journals right now.
Just a thought.
