You CAN Make This! *Giveaway* Published on Tuesday, October 20, 2009 by

This giveaway is now closed.  Thanks for stopping by.  The winner is Sara T.

Attention creative types and those of you who aspire to be like Martha Stewart…you MUST check out YouCanMakeThis.com!  While I LOVE to do crafts, sometimes I’m intimidated.  I doubt my ability to create something of use and worth.  Some of my noteworthy attempts over the years include a doll house (which is still unfinished), a baby quilt (yet again, unfinished), and a handbag (success!). I think it would be awesome if I could make little dresses for our baby girl or dress-up costumes for our little boy. YouCanMakeThis.com is making it easy to do all of these things and more.

Dedicated to helping you succeed in enjoying the creative process, YouCanMakeThis.com provides detailed, step-by-step guides for making fun projects in a variety of DIY categories. The guides are available for you to download immediately after purchase – most as PDF documents.

I will admit that I haven’t actually tried a project from the site (yet), but they look very doable (once I review a project, I’ll update you on my experience!).  There are a wide variety of projects available including an adorable Crochet Bambino Bundler Set, fun Building Blocks, a tutu that I want our little girl to wear next year for Halloween, and ties for little boys!  The site includes pictures and you’ll receive detailed instructions when you purchase the downloads (which by the way, are very affordable).

Win It! One of you will win a $50 bundle of Halloween downloads.  The bundle includes the following books:
