Crafting for the Uncrafty

I like a Hawaiian beach. What I have is Puget Sound — rock, cold water, and shoes on the whole time. Here's the trade: a sandy beach hides things, a rocky one holds them up. A beachcombing method, what to look for at low tide, and the one thing I keep for myself.

Feeling creatively stuck but still holding a glue stick? These two cheerful summer DIYs—like a kawaii catch-all shell dish and a tiny patch banner of emotional support—are perfect for crafters who want low-stakes, high-vibe projects. No pressure, just glitter, glue, and charming little wins.

My taste leans toward fantasy, historical fiction, and personal development.
