During a time when print magazines are going down by the dozen, it’s refreshing to see a lovely new publication emerge. Mollie Makes is my favorite new crafty magazine. Published in the UK, the magazine embodies the spirit of the crafty lifestyle along with the beauty of a shelter magazine. With project tutorials, featured handmade artists, photos of craft studios and images of vintage and handmade influenced interiors, inspiration and resources, it’s a must-read for anyone who loves handmade.
I was excited to discover the magazine when my editor sent me a write-up of 1, 2, 3 Sew, which was included in the first issue. I haven’t been able to find a copy of that issue in the U.S., but I did head to the suburbs yesterday to pick up a copy of issue #2 from a Joann store. My love for foreign magazines is an expensive habit, with the U.S. price at $11.99, but since this one is packed with so much goodness, I think it might be worth it. And it’s printed in English, which is a definite plus. This second issue also featured a felt flower kit attached to the cover.
Here are some photos to give you a glimpse inside the magazine:
