Noah Scalin, author of 365: A Daily Creativity Journal: Make Something Every Day and Change Your Life!, visited Spacecraft in Brooklyn recently, and there was quite literally hands-on crafting. Here are a few of the photos from a great post that features tons more "hand-crafted" images from the event. I can't tell you how much I love this concept. Well, I can say though, I am trying it myself! See the beginnings of my 365 greeting cards over at The Card Album Blog.
I LOVE this photo soooooo much!
There are also a few more crafted "hands" posted here. Another post about this special day with Noah Scalin is featured here, although I think this crafter made butterflies!
Want to get in on the "make something daily" band wagon too? Then grab yourself a copy of:

The concept of Noah Scalin’s "365 method" is simple but inspired: Choose a theme or medium, then make something every day for a year. Noah made 365 skull-themed projects... now he invites you to choose your obsession and get creative! The book offers 365 project prompts to kick start your creativity, plus plenty of room for journaling, sketching, and jotting down ideas. Learn how to choose your subject and document your work, and see examples from other artists and crafters who took the 365 challenge. In addition, master new techniques to incorporate into your projects, including quilling, clay-making, paper pop-up engineering, and more. Share your progress with other 365-ers at www.MakeSomething365.com. With 365: A Daily Creativity Journal you’ll get charged up, get messy, and get inspired, and you’ll see how making something every day can change your creative process—and change your life forever!
