Are there going to be any craft days on QVC this year?

@krtjazzman What makes you think there is any possibility? QVC hasn't been into crafts for years

@Kachina624, QVC2 did some craft shows a few months back so that is probably why @krtjazzman is asking.

Truthfully, even though I am a crafter, the high shipping and handling makes me not care if QVC has any more shows or not.

Carolyn Gracie did a couple of craft shows several years ago. They were pretty bad; she obviously didn't know what she was doing. They must have been a big flop because they went away and didn't return.

Once upon a time they did an excellent job with their crafts and I bought a lot of really cool things. But they never gave shipping breaks unless you were buying 2 of the exact same item (back then when they still did that sort of thing). I would put 4 things in my cart and realize I was going to spend $20 just on shipping so I would empty my cart and make myself stick to just one item, two at the most. When they stopped the craft shows, so many called for them to do them again so they have made a few feeble attempts in the past few years. The shows were very lame and I think they probably did flop! I felt like they wanted to be able to tell their customers, see, we tried! As for me, I will do my craft shopping elsewhere. So far, what little I've seen them bring in has not been impressive in my eyes.

It's been years since QVC had a craft day. I remember them. I was tempted to try that (cant remember her name) painters techniques. She painted flowers a lot. I also remember them having collectors day, with Fenton, boyds bears, hummels, cuckoo clocks and more. Doesn't hsn do craft days? Evine?

HSN has wonderful craft shows and they have them fairly often. Almost one day a month is mostly craft, although maybe not quite every month. I believe March is a big craft month so there's likely to be a whole day devoted to crafts. They seem to have most of the best crafters (especially Anna Griffin!). Not sure who QVC would attract at this point. Maybe if QVC offered some crafty programs that were not paper crafting.....drawing, painting, quilting, sewing, etc.

Speaking of crafting I saw that Donna dewberry is back online on YouTube streaming new shows. And they are up-to-date. And she's asking for people to become teachers that she's short of teachers. So go check them out if you're interested. I know I am that's what I do I paint. I thought I'd let people now.
