In the second step, you will need to determine where you want to put them. It can help you to get the perfect DIY craft idea.
Because you will still need measurements and other important parts. So, it’s not just to get ideas, but something that can be crafted with everything necessary.
You can spend time imagining and designing the craft project in your head. Maybe you can use a tool if possible. If it’s a big project that needs some 3D tool to design it.
Q: How can doing this help you get more ideas?
It’s a good way and part of these tips on how to get more awesome DIY craft ideas in 2022. That will help you to get an idea of the decoration and everything important.

Q: What are things that need to pay attention to when looking for a craft place?
- The things around the craft and how it will make it look
- All the measures to fit and add good addition to the area
- Colors of the things around or nearby
- How far it is from kids’ reach

And that’s another benefit of following these tips on how to get more awesome DIY craft ideas in 2022.

A lot of people use the internet, but it can be complicated to search for things you want. But if you follow people who craft things related to your ideas and materials.
This way, it will be a way to get unlimited ideas and sometimes things that can’t be found by searching on Google.
Ways to get more DIY ideas from doing this:
- When they share their new ideas on social media
- Through conversations with DIY crafters
- Join communities that crafters you follow are part of
- Comments others people could mention DIY craft ideas
I’m sure you can find a lot of crafters on many social media platforms. But one like Pinterest, you will find more of them than on Twitter.
Because Pinterest is a great one for that type of content. And you will have a method to contact them.
Make sure to follow people who are similar to you. Because if you follow completely random crafters that don’t craft using the materials you are using.
That would be a waste unless you will change. So, if you want to get the most out of this and get new DIY craft ideas. Don’t follow people who don’t use the same materials.
5. Write down DIY craft ideas you get in your mind

Last but not least, something that regretted before and will do when I get back to craft. Writing down all the craft ideas that I get.
Benefits of writing DIY craft ideas:
- Get new ideas you get suddenly when brainstorming
- Be able to get more ideas from what you write
- You can adjust or change things to make extra ideas
- Kow what you already have to know what else to get
Sometimes, just like blog post ideas, ideas can get to your mind, but we would forget about them. And the ideas can be really cool and we need to write them down.
That’s why it’s one of the important tips on how to get more awesome DIY craft ideas in 2022.

Finding a place for something before you make it is such a great idea! My kids are constantly crafting but never know where to put it when they're done.
I am not great with DIY crafts, and it is nice to find inspiration online. There are so many great resources out there! I don't follow specific crafters, but I have found a lot of great products for things like school or Girl Scouts.
I've missed your crafting posts! And your point about thinking where you'll put your finished masterpiece is spot on – thank you for sharing these tips 🙂
Finding where you are going to display/use your craft project is such an important step. I've been stuck with things I haven't really thought through like that before!

Following crafters on socials is a great way to get inspiration. There are so many amazing things you can make.
Great tips, I especially love following crafters on social media. If they're using the same materials, it's easier to get ideas. Thanks for sharing!
Your tips are very handy and would actually find a craft hobby that they would actually stick too through thinking about and researching which craft to try x
We are constantly using our old crafts and reusing them or updating them. There is nothing I love more than crafting and I've even gotten into sewing lately.
It would be fun to craft more in 2023!
These are great tips for finding DIY crafts. I’d also recommend reading some DIY blogs and books. – Riyah Speaks
I love DIY crafts! You can basically create anything you want and the best part is that it can all be customized. A bit of creativity and imagination can do wonders in the arts and crafts world.
I note all my potential crafting and other ideas in a note taking app on my phone. It's a life saver. I often have ideas but forget what they are pretty quickly. So always make notes
These are good tips! I do love being crafty and creative! As the weather will start to turn, creativity can be a great activity on a rainy day. Thank you for sharing.

What a structured post on the topic of DIYs. Next time I lack inspiration I would surely refer to this. In addition to all that you stated, I suggest one should look at nature and try to get inspiration. I once so a creeper and then managed to make a window decoration using wire and some leftover green ribbons.
I haven’t got my craft on in what feels like forever so this post has defiantly inspired me to get my creative cap on and get crafting. You’ve shared some really great tips which I’ll defiantly be putting to good use! Thank you so much for sharing this post with us, great read Xo
