We should get this out of the way: Craftfulness is not a “crafting book”. Rather, it is an investigation of the wisdom generations of men and women know to be true: that making things is a vital means of self-expression, self-realization, and self-help that sparks the mind, touches the soul, and rejuvenates the spirit. Integrating mindfulness, neuroscience, positive psychology, and creativity research, Rosemary Davidson and Arzu Tahsin explore how the simple act of making something from scratch impacts mental well-being.

Craft enthusiasts are no doubt already aware of the joys of making and the frustration when you must put aside your project and go back to your day job or to less enticing tasks around the house. But there is more to crafting than the simple enjoyment of a creative hobby. Drawing on the firsthand accounts from everyday crafters, Craftfulness considers the vital well-being effects to be gained from the simple expression of your creativity and investigates the soul cleansing and stress relieving benefits of making things by hand.
