If you like to browse Pinterest for crafty projects and ideas, try a Do-It-Yourself database instead. Alkek has four DIY databases that contain how-to instructions for a variety of projects.

Full text is provided from leading hobby and craft magazines, including Bead & Button, Creative Knitting, FineScale Modeler, Quilter's World, Popular Photography and many more.
