Crafting with Feminism
Crafting with Feminism: 25 Girl-Powered Projects to Smash the Patriarchy | Bonnie Burton
15 posts | 6 read | 27 to read
This is what a feminist crafter looks like! Wear your ideology on your sleeve by creating feminist merit badges (like started an all-girl band or rocked roller derby). Prove that the political is personal with DIY power panties (No means no). Craft great feminist hero finger puppets (Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Frida Kahlo) or googly-eyed tampon buddies. Fun sidebars provide background on (s)heroes of the feminist movement.

Pick with reservations. I'm most likely not going to make any of these (with the possible exception of Buffy and Uhura prayer candles because awesome), but some were cute. And I really liked Felicia Day's intro, and the extra stuff included throughout like the feminist playlist, movie, and book recommendations. It's not fantastic as a craft book, but it is a fun novelty.

HannaPolkadots Oooh, I want a Buffy one! 😍 8y
BekahB That Buffy prayer candle is fantastic! 💕 8y
AmyLarge Buffy candle, most awesome. 8y

How did we spend our Monday #crafternoon this week? Creating a variation of the Strong Female Character Prayer Candles in @bonniegrrl's CRAFTING WITH FEMINISM. Mod Podge, you incredible sidekick. We couldn't have done it without you.

•Am I good at general crafty things? No.
•Do I have the patience for crafting? NOPE.
•Number of Pinterest crafts I've successfully completed: 😂😂😂😂😂 zero.
•Do I have the time for more crafting beyond cross stitch? No.
•Will I ever have use for most of the items in this book? Probably not.

But dangit there's a RBG finger puppet or something on the cover so now I need it. 🙎🏻

Jamesmelvinmitchell @BookishFeminist you crack me up. I can't build anything or do a single car repair we are kind of in the same boat. 8y
BookishFeminist @Jamesmelvinmitchell It's awful every time I try to make something so it does sound like we're in the same boat. Solidarity. 😂 8y
GirlNamedJesse I think I just found the source for my new teen craft program! 😂 8y
BookishFeminist @GirlNamedJesse YES! It would be perfect for that! If you make any of them please post them- i'd love to see 😊 8y
DivineDiana Love this! And very curious about the projects! 🤔 8y
BookishFeminist @DivineDiana Ditto! I want to take a look and see what's in it. Guess we'll have to wait until October 😀 8y
ramyasbookshelf This sounds like a great book! I love arts and crafts.. curious to see what a feminist twist will do to the projects! Oct 16 is a long wait now :( haha! I have no patience when it comes to books. 8y
BookishFeminist @ramyasbookshelf I don't have patience with them either - I panic if I can't get it on Netgalley these days 😂 God forbid I have to preorder something! I'm excited to see what projects this will have too- will post updates 👍🏼 8y
haileybean Oh my god. Take my money 8y
Posemn Hahahah! And the "finger puppet" looks like Ruth Bader Ginsburg - everyone needs at least one of these in their life. Why wouldn't you be drawn in??!! I look forward to future posts .... with pictures. 8y
Megabooks I need to do "leg hair don't care". ???? 8y
Kitta This is incredible @BooksGirlsCats 8y
Donnasmiles Ha! Read this yesterday and for some reason it made me post it here: "It is not the critic who counts. ... The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by the dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly ... who, at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly; so his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory or defeat." Roosevelt YOU can craft! 8y
JPeterson Oh! You can start a feminist craft club in the DC area, complete with wine! I mean, really, a time to drink wine and talk about how much we would love to actually start one of the crafts (then never do..) 8y
Gezemice Lol! Love it! 8y
sparklemotion I need to check this out. I love doing crafts. 8y
BethFishReads Oh this one is on its way to me. Can't wait! 8y
