It’s my birthday!!!!!! Well, yesterday was, but let’s overlook that minor detail. And, because it’s my birthday, I made you a present.
I spent well over 40 hours working on this 1300+ hashtag cheatsheet for handmade careers for you. I hope you love it. 
- Bath/Beauty/Soap Making
- Calligraphy/Handlettering/Stationery
- Ceramics/Pottery
- Doll/Toy Designer
- Embroidery
- Jewelry Designer
- Knitting/Crochet
- Sewing/Textiles
- Surface Design
- Woodworking
I’ve also covered the following categories:
- Maker/Handmade
- Business/Marketing/Selling
- Crafts/Crafted
- Etsy
This cheatsheet lists a bunch of hashtags in each category and the hashtags are listed in order of usage. Each hashtag has the number of uses (at the time I created it) next to it so that you can decide which you should use based on your number followers, likes and comments.

Thank you for this! I didn’t realize that hashtags in a separate comment were frowned upon – will change this asap!
YOU ARE an angel April !
Thank YOU so much for this cheatsheet for jewelry designers.
♥♥♥
Thank you so much, April! And I hope you had a very happy birthday xxx
Amazing article April, it was informative and helpful article.thanks do keep on waking us about the new things.
I hope you had a lovely birthday, and this cheat sheet is amazing especially for someone like me who has yet to embrace Twitter hashtags. I receive and send Tweets but I have not used hashtags. As always you clarify things and provide substantive information to your followers.
Your health continues to be on my prayer list, and I pray that the treatment you receive is helping tremendously.
Bless you and your loving husband.
tremendously written. I appreciate a person who knows their way around words.
