Why do you think QVC did away with this?

 

We used to have so much fun on those days!

I'm not much of a crafter, but I did enjoy the shows. They do have days on HSN, but that almost seems like all paper crafting. To go with this topic, look at HGTV and what happened to all those great crafing shows. Now it's all  about home refurbishing/flipping and not much else. I'd much rather see the old shows, too.

I think because there were not enough crafters for both QVC and HSN.  They chose to let HSN have crafting rather than split those customers.

QVC won't stock or continue items unless it's economically feasible.  In other words, they weren't making enough money to justify the airtime.

I like to do crats but the trouble is, there isn't anyone who appreciates them.  Certainly not the younger genrations.  I didn''t do all the sort of crafts but the few I did I had fun doing them.

If you do a search for Crafts on QVC, there are at least 5 pages of items being offered.

 

I love the HSN craft shows....especially with Anna Griffin.  Their shows are primarily paper crafts, but they do sometimes offer other items.  Sewing machines, for example.

Maybe it's time to start again just for yourself.  I've always done

 

crafts, collages, ATCs, no more cards or scrapbooks, but I love the small scrapbooks I made that I bought from QVC

 

  I have so much paper and doodads, rubber stamps

I still search for rubber stamps on line. 

 

If you enjoyed it, try again.   Look at some sites online for inspiration.

I make things but they aren't structured crafts. I like watching the craft shows but I don't really buy. I am tired of the same ole same ole anna griffin. Her things all look the same. I would consider getting a die cutter but I need more instruction than what I see on TV. I think it would be fun to make paper houses.

Crafts became very expensive and very messy to me a long time ago.  Mom loved it, but I never had the love of it that she did.
