30+ Craft Kit Ideas For Boys

This boys crafts gift guide is all about craft kits that are aimed at boys. I am all for non-gender specific toys, clothing and products BUT I still want my boy to enjoy crafting and if that means finding him craft kits without pink packaging or unicorns and princesses then that is what I will do. Creativity far outweighs my stopping him from crafting. Obviously he has a choice to pick pink boxes and barbie crafts if he wants and he does not. However, his sister doesn’t want pink boxes either and can’t stand painting pink unicorns or little mermaids.

So this is what this list is all about, please do not message me about how everyone can purchase from this list, cause I know they can, you know they can, but this list is for those people who need to have gender-specific packaging. This is a gift guide list for them, because finding creative crafty gifts for boys is really really hard.

You can see all of the top picks that I have hand-selected here at this Gift Guide List. Make sure you check back often as I am adding more and more products as they are recommended to me or become available.

I just can’t resist sharing a few more Halloween cross stitch patterns when they are as cute and quick to stitch as these!

This boo cross stitch from Luzatolye was the first little Halloween cross stitch pattern to catch my eye. I love the pumpkin Os! At just 23 by 8 stitches and using four colors, you can stitch it up in no time. On 14 count fabric it measures 1.6 by.5 inches, or about 4 by 1.27 cm.

Another cutie from the same designer is this jack o’lantern with a witch hat. Another four-color project, this one is 14 by 18 stitches, which is an inch by just a little more than an inch, or around 3 cm square, worked on 14 count fabric.

If you like your minis a little bit bigger, this jack o’lantern with leaves is from White Protea Art and measures 47 by 28 stitches. That comes out to 3.4 by 2 inches, or 8.5 by 5.1 cm, when stitches on 14 count fabric. It uses nine colors.

Or there’s also this little cutie from that same designer. I love the little leaf on top of the pumpkin. At 33 by 36 stitches, it comes out to 2.4 by 2.6 inches, or 6 by 6.5 cm, when stitched on 14 count fabric. I think it uses around eight colors.

Template Love Create also has two mini jack o’lantern cross stitch patterns that I like (I swear I didn’t plan to do two from each of the same designers, it’s just the whimsy of an Etsy search!). There’s one that is more round and one that’s oblong, which I like because it’s different from most of the pumpkin patterns you see. The pattern listings say both are six colors (though they look like four to me) and 28 by 28 stitches, but I don’t think that can be true. Either way they both fit in a 3 inch hoop and would be a super cute little addition to your Halloween decor.
