How To Make A Daisy Chain
Now, I gotta say right off - I might be really stepping in it here: writing a tutorial on how to write a tutorial?! Who do I think I am? Well, I'm just someone who loves and appreciates a good craft tutorial and would like to see more of them in the world!
I've been involved in craft blogging for 3½ years now and have seen many, many tutorials in the blog world; also, since starting The Crafty Crow two months ago, I have been on a one-woman mission looking at children's craft tutorials and have seen 100's just in the last few months. Besides writing my own tutorials here at Bella Dia, I've had experience in contributing patterns and instructions to books and all this leads me to tell you - a good tutorial takes a lot of work and is hard to do! So this tutorial about how to write a tutorial is well, double jeopardy?! Mostly, I am trying to share what I look for in a tutorial and what I think makes a good tutorial. I sure don't want to sound like I'm the know all end all here - it's just my opinion and what I've learned from my last few years of doing this.
So here goes!
