Crafting is one of the most popular and relaxing hobbies for men and women around the world. There are dozens of different types of crafting, including woodworking, scrapbooking, cross-stitch and other fiber arts, painting, greeting card making, stamps, stencils, and much, much more.
In fact, a 2010 survey by the Craft & Hobby Association estimates that the U.S. industry was worth $29.2 billion.
