For my quarantined friends, and anyone for that matter. If you need some really good viewing, and if you need educational programming as well for you home schoolers, you can use the Crafts in America videos for the art portion of your child's education, but for all, the shows are just a wonderful time. Best viewed on a large screen, with good sound.

I have seen every single one of these PBS shows, over the last few years, and every single one knocks it out of the park.

You can also find their YouTube Channel and view the larger format than what's available on the website. I watched their latest show "Identity" this past weekend and loved it. Cheers!

 

 

I am not familiar with it, but will give it a go.  Not now though, sun is up!

Cal, I love watching these shows on a rainy day, with a hot cup of something, and feeling like the sofa is a good place to be for an hour.

One of the better craft type shows. Some real artistry there. In one segment about a jewelry box maker, she asked him how long it took to make one. His reply sure rang true. He said he doesn't want to know because knowing his hourly wage would be too upsetting. We all can empathize, right?

I record them . The one thing I think would make it better is a hour show with only one maker.

By the way, if you have streaming devices such as Roku or smart TV, you just watch the entire series on the PBS channel.
