Thread: New Crafts - traveling and need ideas

Tweet

Just thought I would put this out there to see what I could get but I am on the road like 4 days a week with work and stay in a hotel at least 3 nights wondering if anyone had any ideas for easy crafts to keep me busy.

That is a tough question. You say you are on the road, but do you fly any or is it all driving? Just wondering if there are any flying restrictions to worry about. Also, what do you like to do? What kind of crafts have you done in the past?

If you are traveling by car.. then do as i do...

on the road you find the ultimate in obtainium (good stuff to make props)

pack a small kit with stuff you can use or may need

scissors
utlitiy knife
small folding saw
glue gun and sticks
crafting wire
and a dremel kit with all the tips.(they sell the packaged kits in a plastic case)

I never paint my props when traveling as I know when I did the paint wouldnt dry...

look around you for anything and everything as you travel, free stuff or highway road side attraction trinkets rock...

I know it didnt give you a real idea on a certain craft to do... but maybe on the tools you will need.

for me the imagination is the best tool in prop and craft creating
