Hi, We Are Glad You Are Here
A La Cart Projects started as a personal blog in 2019 when our founder, a graphic designer by trade, wanted a place to document weekend craft experiments. What began as a way to remember which glue worked on which surface turned into a resource used by thousands of makers looking for straightforward project guides.
Our Philosophy
We believe crafting should be approachable. You should not need a dedicated studio, an expensive Cricut, or a perfectly curated Instagram feed to enjoy making things. A kitchen table, a few basic tools, and a free afternoon are enough.
Every project we publish meets three criteria:
- Completable in a single session (or a relaxed weekend)
- Uses supplies available at chain craft stores or online
- Produces a result you would actually want to keep or give
What We Cover
Paper crafts, simple woodworking, fiber arts, upcycling, resin work, candle making, and seasonal projects. We rotate themes monthly and occasionally collaborate with Etsy sellers to break down how they produce their bestselling items.
Selling on Etsy?
Several of our project tutorials include notes about production scaling and pricing. If a project works well as a one-off gift, we will tell you. If it has real potential as an Etsy product, we will walk through materials cost, time per unit, and listing strategy.
Get in Touch
We read every email and reply within 48 hours. Whether you have a question about a project, a suggestion for a future tutorial, or just want to share something you made, we would love to hear from you.
