Christie Crafts News—A Little Schedule Change!

I’m making a small change to my weekly schedule that I hope will give me a little more breathing room! Since most of my crafting happens on the weekends, I’m moving my weekly creative posts to Wednesdays instead of Mondays. This gives me more time to enjoy creating without rushing to get everything photographed, written, and published at the beginning of the week. Don’t worry—it’s still the same creative inspiration, just on a slightly different schedule!

Here’s what you can expect going forward:

Tuesdays: Christie Crafts Weekly Newsletter
Wednesdays: Christie Crafts New Creative Post
Throughout the Week: Photos, reels, and more crafty inspiration on social media (make sure you follow my socials!)
Second Tuesday of Each Month: Monthly Blog Hop posts (no change!)

And speaking of Wednesdays, tomorrow’s creative post will feature the darling Merry Manor Kit! I’ve been having such fun putting this charming little Christmas house together, and I can’t wait to share the finished project with you. It’s a wonderful addition to your holiday décor and would make such a fun family crafting activity. I’ll have photos, a video, and a few ideas for displaying your own little Christmas manor, so be sure to watch your email or stop by ChristieCrafts.com tomorrow!

I’m looking forward to having a little more time at the craft table and sharing what I create with you. Thank you for being part of my crafty community and following along. I truly appreciate having you here!
