Work With Me

The Crafting Nook is a DIY and creative living blog built on trust, real-life experience, and hands-on creativity. Because of that, Iโ€™m very selective about the partnerships and collaborations I take on.

Letโ€™s Talk Collaboration

This page exists to clearly explain what I do, what Iโ€™m open to, and what I donโ€™t accept, so expectations are clear from the start.

What I Do

I create original, hands-on DIY and craft content focused on practical, purposeful projects made for real homes and real people.

This includes:
โ€“ Handmade decor and craft projects
โ€“ Creative organization ideas
โ€“ Sewing, jewelry, and craft-based DIYs
โ€“ Tutorials created, tested, and photographed by me

Everything published on The Crafting Nook reflects my own process, experience, and creative judgment.

Types of Collaborations I Consider

Iโ€™m open to thoughtful collaborations that align naturally with my content and values, including:

  • Brand partnerships featuring products I genuinely use or would realistically use
  • Sponsored projects where I design, create, and photograph the project myself
  • Long-term brand relationships rather than one-off promotions
  • Guest posts from legitimate bloggers whose work and values align with The Crafting Nook
  • Press samples for consideration (no guarantee of coverage)

Guest posts are considered on a limited basis and only when they come from real, established bloggers. The ability to verify authorship, originality, and an active website or body of work is required.

What I Donโ€™t Accept

To protect my audience and the integrity of this site, I do not accept:

  • Link insertions or paid links
  • Pre-written or templated sponsored content
  • Guest posts created solely for backlinks or SEO purposes
  • Sponsored posts, regardless of the sender, that donโ€™t align with my content or values
  • Promotions that feel forced, misleading, or unrelated to what I share here

Requests that fall into these categories will not receive a response.

Content Standards and Expectations

All content published on The Crafting Nook must meet the same standards, whether itโ€™s written by me or contributed by another creator.

This means:
โ€“ Original content written specifically for this site
โ€“ Clear authorship and verifiable experience
โ€“ A natural fit for my audience
โ€“ No promotional linking or SEO-driven intent

I do not publish content created primarily for search engines, backlinks, or quick promotion.

Media Kit and Contact

If youโ€™re a brand or blogger interested in working together and believe weโ€™re a good fit, youโ€™re welcome to reach out through the contact page.

Please include:
โ€“ A short introduction
โ€“ A link to your website or portfolio
โ€“ Details about your proposal and why it aligns with The Crafting Nook

A media kit is available upon request.

A Final Note

I value transparency, respect, and meaningful collaboration. Taking the time to understand how I work is the first step toward a successful partnership.
