Advertise your shop in our new Directory.

The June issue of Creative Crafting will see the launch of our new Crafters Directory. Times are hard and all of our businesses need as much promotion as they can get. We will be adding this new section complete with clickable links that should hhopefully bring lots of new customers to your shops and websites.
We hope that you love reading our magazine as much as we love to create it for you, it does however, take lots of time to produce and has costs that I am currently covering myself. In order to keep it going we will be asking a small charge for advertising in the directory.
Please support us so that we can continue to bring you our colourful issues and hopefully one day we will be able to print hard copies.

Advertising starts at just £2. For more information and to book your slot please visit our website Creative-Crafting.

if you would like us to email you an example page complete with links, please email us at thecrystallady@creative-crafting.com.

Thank you for your continuing support.
