Books to Add to Your Library for National Craft Month

Three crafting reads to add to your collection in honor of National Craft Month in March.

March is designated as National Craft Month each year. While craft lovers of all ages would argue that EVERY month is Craft Month, don’t be surprised to see more attention on craft stores, DIY projects and stories about making in the coming weeks. To kick off the festivities, I’ve got a list of some fun books and kits that are new on my bookshelf that your crafters may be want to take a look at, as well, as we get ready for March and a month of celebrating.
