About the Site :

We wanted to provide a central location where you could come to find a variety of teen friendly crafts. DIYing brings such joy to our lives and we wanted to enable teens to expose their inner craftiness as well! And that is how Craft Teen was born!

How We Met : 

Court and Tanner are both enthusiastic teenage craft bloggers  and became friends threw messaging online. Due to their similar interests and compatible personalities they grew close. They met in person at Winter CHA 2013. After they returned home they decided to create this blog and here we are today! 

About Tanner : 

At 14 years old, Tanner Bell can say he’s done a little of everything when it comes to the craft industry. Tanner got his start in March 2010. After getting his very first Cricut expression, he decided to create simple craft tutorials. He was for sure different in the online crafting community with his young age, personality, and knowledge. He continued to create craft videos and have fun with it. He then saw a niche that needed to be filled in the stamp industry, Dogs, specifically yorkies since he has 9 yorkies of his own. He found a manufacture that would create the stamps, and he would package and distribute them. He did this all on his own for about two years. He knew that there was something bigger then creating stamps. He then decided to end his company. Tanner focused on what he loved most, videos. By then, Tanner had build a brand and following. After six months of thinking and finding what was next for the young teen, he decided to partner with a friend which he had met through his stamp company and became friends with. Tanner and Courtney launched A Little Craft In Your Day in late March of 2013. Their focus was going to be DIY Crafts hitting the Teen demographic. Companies are always wanting to reach the “Next Generation” which makes them someone every company wants to work with. Tanner’s goal is to not only grow his own brand, but to become a spokesperson for a brand/company. He believes with his outgoing personality that companies could benefit from him as their spokesperson.

About Courtney : 

My name is Courtney Chambers, and I love to craft. I love transforming boring things into fabulous creations. Ever since I was a little girl I loved to get crafty! My kindergarten teacher actually sent me to a therapist, because all I did was color at recess. The therapist simply said, “Well, all I can tell you is she really likes to color!” I still do love a good coloring book and crayons, however my crafting style has matured a little since then, thank goodness! Nowadays I enjoy creating DIY projects, such as decor for my room and handmade jewelry. I am so grateful to blog along side my best friend, Tanner Bell. Together we own A Little Craft In Your Day, a website where we share DIY projects for teens and strive to inspire people of all ages to incorporate a little crafting into their day, everyday! I am also a sophomore in highschool, I love spending time with my family and friends, and one day I hope to be a great adoptive mother!

I would love to connect with you! Friend me on Facebook, Follow me on Twitter, and Subscribe to my YouTube Channel!
