The only thing better than a fab craft is a fab AND functional craft!! Let’s put those crafts to work, shall we? I’m sharing just nine of the amazing functional craft submissions from I Share Crafts! Haven’t you been loving the amazing craft ideas? Have you submitted your ideas to I Share, yet? What is keeping you? It’s time to share the love, people!
Okay, let’s get sharing some fab AND functional crafts. Here we go!
1. Do you have a personal craft cutter? Do you go to crops? Then you’ll love this how-to from Madigan Made! A personal craft cutter case! I’m doing this TODAY!!

3. Let your kids craft in STYLE with a crafted Art Smock made from oil cloth like this one submitted from “Sweeter Than Sweet”. Your kiddo will LOVE it, and so will your laundry budget!
4. Jillian from “Blessings of a Lifetime” makes GREAT use out of this simple drink caddy, turning it into a FAB craft organizer! LOVE THIS!
5. We all have paper bags lying around…why not craft them with some apples, paint, and creativity..and send our kids’ lunches to school in style?

6. Make great use out of those fabric scraps and make a fab AND functional little ruffle cinch bag! I wonder if I can make one in my size?

7. Technology is great, but it does lend itself to lots of e-waste, am I right? I adore this idea of crafting a cute e-waste basket for all of those dead batteries, etc. Smart, right?
8. Also, from Homework, breathe new life into an old bowl with some twine or rope! This is fun!
9. We love Mod Podge Amy, and she is back sharing a detailed how-to craft your OWN lamp! The paper possibilities are endless. You can get much more FUNctional than that!
