	I have been crafting since I was about 10 years old or so, and never really stopped. During the time I ran a webshop in craft supplies ~~from 2016 until 2020~~, I learned even more about new products and how to use them. Afterward, I realized that the most fun part for me was keeping up with new products, testing them out, figuring out how to get the most out of them, and putting all of that information on my webshop for my customers (and visitors).

			Now that my webshop has closed (due to a lack of free time, since I ran the shop as a side business next to my full-time job), my free time will again go to this lovely hobby. And to this project, Craft-Wiki: a website that aims to list the most commonly used products, materials, terminology, … in the ever-expanding paper crafting world.

	The ~~information that is found on~~ this website is ~~taken from~~ the products ~~themselves~~, ~~the websites of the manufacturers~~, or ~~the personal experience~~ of ~~trusted sources~~ (or ~~myself~~)~~. None~~ of the ~~content is written using AI~~.		== Products and brands ==
			The goal of this website is to have an overview of the different types of products that are out there, how to use them, how to combine them with other products, what brands or specific products are of good quality and give good results, etc. I will only list products if I know (by using them myself or by having seen them used by a trusted source) they are of good quality and they are different enough to distinguish them from other products from the same category. Brands that can only be bought through one vendor or through independent consultants will not be listed.

I try to stay as objective as possible, but if the information about your products is not correct or not complete, or you want to have your product listed on the website (no guarantees), you can reach out by sending an email to me at '''hello [at] craft-wiki.com'''.

You are, however, free to send products my way for me to test so I can add them to the website if I feel they're good and/or unique enough.
