You don’t have to be Martha Stewart or a skilled artisan to appreciate National Craft Month.  Whatever your tool of choice is: scissors, paintbrush, beads or yarn, it’s time to put on your creative hat and make something that is uniquely yours.  The DIY (do-it-yourself) approach will inspire you at Town & Country Inn Bed, Breakfast & Stables in Aiken, South Carolina where you can sign up for a two-day scrapbook package and work uninterrupted on your new or existing scrapbook.  The Inn provides a full breakfast, light lunch, drinks, snacks and a gift certificate to a local crafts store.  If you’d rather wear what you make, then request the, “Beading Package” where you can learn all the tricks of the trade in a bead making class.  The special also includes breakfast, snacks and a gift certificate to a bead shop.  Or forgo the class all together and experiment and make any beaded jewelry that fits your own personal style. 

If you’re looking for some yarn o’ fun, take a “knit’inn” weekend at The Wakefield Inn in Wakefield, New Hampshire where you and your friends can take a group trip to a yarn shop and knit away to your heart’s content.  The inn will provide breakfast and dinner for two nights, giving you ample time to gab with your friends and maybe, finish that scarf you’ve been working on for over a year.
