Put Your Stamp On It: 12 Great Projects

 

In the world of crafting, there are a few rock stars... and rubber stamps would definitely be on the short list, along with washi tape and Sharpies.

Creative, versatile, and easy enough for a toddler to use, stamps are one of the simplest ways to adorn anything from textiles to ceramics, even cookies.

Chances are you have a craft store nearby that sells basic rubber stamps, but if you're ready to expand your collection there are plenty of online sources that provide easy access to a wide range.

A few of our favorites:

Wit + Whistle

Impress Rubber Stamps

Yellow Owl Workshop

And of course, Etsy.  There are so many shops that sell stamps in every imaginable style and shape.  Some of our top picks:  Citoyennes, The Small Object, Happy Rainy Day and Talk to the Sun.
