Crafts and Crafting Supplies

Crafts are activities and objects created by skilled individuals using their hands or simple tools, focusing on both decorative and functional purposes. The term encompasses a broad range of disciplines, such as pottery, weaving, and woodworking, with the individual artisanship and cultural or religious significance often being paramount to the work. Historically, crafts were the primary means of production, distinguishing mass-made goods from individually produced items.
