Craft Cruises

| 3 Comments

A friend of mine is talking about going on a cruise sans the husband who would have to be dragged by the hair on his head. Though she has friends she could go with instead, she is seriously thinking of going alone because she basically wants to do what she wants to do when she wants to do it and thinks she’ll be held back if she has to account to someone else. I got on-line in hopes f finding her some theme cruises to go on, and found Craft Cruises, which looks pretty darn cool:

Cruising with a purpose is all about collecting experiences and making lifelong friends. If you have found yourself resisting cruising then you may want to think again.

Misconceptions about cruising have kept many from trying it. The most satisfied of all Craft Cruise participants are the ones who resisted. The onboard classes, the pampering, the friendships, the overall feeling of togetherness, and the exclusive opportunities to meet other like-minded people in ports around the world have led to expectations being exceeded and the cruise experience being repeated over and over again.

They have cruises available for knitting, crochet, beading, scrapbooking, and one called the Christmas Craft Market, which looks more like a shopping trip than a hands-on craft cruise, but the rest tout classes and lectures on the craft topic of choice. I’m not much of a traveler, but if I were to go on a cruise some day, this is the sort of thing that would appeal to me. Otherwise, I’d be at the buffets stuffing my face all day I have no doubt.

Have you ever been on one of these or a similar cruise? I’m curious to hear about real experiences on one of these.

Welcome to the Crafty Princess Diaries, my weblog and site where I get to blab about my passion for crafts, primarily jewelry making, and my crafting career. My name is Tammy Powley, and I decided to call my blog the Crafty Princess Diaries because of this very dorky picture I have of myself and because my husband often refers to me as “the princess and the pea,” which is just another way to say that I tend to be particular sometimes. Along with this weblog, I have a number of jewelry making books published.
