    Free Crafts, Craft Projects and Patterns to Make Easy Homemade Gifts

    You will notice a new site design with many of the new craft projects added to AllFreeCrafts this week. The layout is fast-loading, and you can easily add your comments to each project.
    So far this season, our Hummingbird Food Recipe has attracted 380 comments, with readers helping each other tackle the problem of ants, wasps, bees ... and, once (gulp), even a bear, coming to sample the hummingbird nectar. Injured and lost hummingbirds have also been helped by our readers, which is gratifying for all of us.nib (1K)
