I had so much fun participating in Thing a Day that I wanted to keep something similar going. I think committing to make something every day is a fun challenge for a month, but a bit much to continue long-term. I wanted to do something similar but more like once a week. A lot of my friends from Philly Etsy/Handmade Philly were interested in doing something too, so I started a new group blog called Philly Makes! It is a project for artists, crafters, designers, and makers of all sorts who live in the Philadelphia area. Participants commit to create and post one thing per week. A “thing” can be just about anything you might make- a piece of art, a scarf, a bicycle, a website, your dinner, whatever! It can even be a work in progress that you’d like to share and get feedback on! Want to join? Send me an email with your name, website if you have one, and a brief description of what you make!
