Crafting for Fun and Money!

• Craft instructions must be written by you and the photos must be taken by you. You are giving us permission to publish them on ThriftyFun.com.

• Craft projects must have clear directions, including a list of materials needed and step by step instructions. As a general rule, craft descriptions should be 200 words or more in length. However, some crafts are quite simple and could have fairly short descriptions. As long as the directions are thorough, they can be considered for eligibility.

• Clear step by step photos should accompany any submission. At least one photo of the finished craft and two or more photos of the craft in process are required, additional photos are a big plus.

• The craft must not already be published on our website. If you aren't sure, feel free to ask and we will double check. Click here to contact us with any questions.

• $15 is paid on all published craft projects. Requested holiday crafts are paid at $20, assuming the craft was received in time to be published for the specific holiday.

Terms and Conditions

• You need to provide a PayPal email address or postal mail address for us to send payment.

• Non-US Residents: If you live outside the US or Canada, we cannot deliver your payment unless you have a Paypal account.

• You must submit the crafts using the page below, not on one of our contest pages. Contest submissions will be entered into one of our weekly contests and will not receive direct payment.

• We can't accept submissions from people that are under 15 years old. Please have your parents submit them for you.

• Payment will be made within 30 days of publication of the craft. We will notify you when your crafts are published via email. Once you receive that notification, you can expect a payment within 30 days. If you give us a PayPal email address, you will likely get it much faster. If we publish more than one of your crafts, we may combine payments into one check or PayPal payment.

• Craft instructions must be written by you and the photos must be taken by you. You are giving us permission to publish them on ThriftyFun.com.

• We reserve the right to not publish every craft that is submitted, either because of our budget constraints or the quality of the submission. You will get $15 only if the craft is published as a part of this program. If your craft is not selected for publication, you may resubmit it as a contest entry.
