Over at ProBlogger, Darren suggested that folks create a Bloggers to Watch List for their niches, and I just love this idea! There are so many awesome green crafty blogs that I follow, and I bet some of you guys would dig them, too. If you follow any that aren’t listed below, feel free to spread the love and share your faves in the comments!
I was thinking it might be fun to also make a vegan eats list….that one’s coming later this week! For now, here are some of the green crafty blogs I follow:
- The Long Thread – Ellen posts awesome tutorials and super-adorable artwork that her kids design. She does bunches of great recycled craft projects, too!
- 365 Ways to Go Green – OK, this one isn’t strictly crafty, but Mike posts a small green tip every day, and many of them are DIY.
- Crafting a Green World – I write for these guys, but I was a fan of CAGW way before that! In fact, when I applied to write at GO, I didn’t realize they owned CAGW and sort of freaked out when they suggested I could post there.
- Extreme Craft – Garth Johnson of 1000 Ideas for Creative Reuse chronicles all sorts of crazy crafty finds.
- re-MAKE-able – A brand new blog all about recycled crafts. I can’t wait to see where Megan takes this project!
- Strawberry Hedgehog – Tracy Perkins makes vegan soap, and I just love her blog! Lots of vegan recipes and info about natural living.
- Wardrobe Refashion – This is a collective blog where folks take a pledge to buy no new clothes for 2 month increments. Instead, they make and remake any clothes they need and share their adventures!
So who are you guys keeping an eye on this year?

This is a great idea! I love seeing what you like and what you read.
Thanks, Tasha! I’m trying to get the vegan one together for tomorrow. You’re obviously going to be on that list! :P
You have lots of crafty ideas here that I love to try. I’m sure i will come back for more. Nice lists you have there.
I’ll have to check out some of these! I look forward to your vegan list, too. Reading vegan blogs has been really helpful to me in eliminating dairy from my diet for the most part.
Thanks, Brigid! It seems like more and more folks are sensitive to dairy. I wonder why that is!
Every time I see that fabric banner I fall more in love with it. I’m going to have to make some soon!
They’re so fun to make! Quick and satisfying.
I have bunch of these in my reader already! Would it be rude to mention my blog Condo Blues http://condo-blues.blogspot.com. I have a lot of creative reuse DIY projects but it isn’t 100% crafts a lot of it is DIY greening your life.
Not at all! Thanks for the link!

I love Wardrobe Refashion & Crafting a Green World. Threadbanger is another great one for DIY tricks on how to recycle old clothes. Both their videos and their blog have some great stuff. Plus I’ve met them in person, and they’re just as nice as they seem online.
Oooh Threadbanger! Such a good one.

I love crafty reuse people. I am somewhat of a re-user but I would not call myself crafty (sign). I also like crafting a green world.
You should consider submitting a post at the Green Moms Carnival. We are an eclectic bunch of moms and mothers of the Earth who get together each month and post about a given topic. I am hosting gardening in April so I would love some crafty ideas!!!
See http://organicmania.com/green-moms-carnival/. for more information as to our upcoming topics and members. The more the merrier! Condo Blues is one of us and has a great DIYer blog!
I myself post about green building, green living, gardening, recycling and reuse.
I need to check out your list! I wish there was 8 days in a week.
BTW, Mallory has a nice blog too. I have checked out her site as well.
Just to clarify all women and men can post at the Green Moms Carnival. You don’t have to be a mom. We call all women mothers of the Earth regardless if they have kids. Of course, men are Dads of the Earth. We are all caretakers of the Earth.
Oh, how cool! Thanks for clarifying…I really dig that outlook.
