**10 Hilarious Excuses to Craft Instead of Cleaning the House**
Let’s face it: cleaning the house can always wait, but crafting inspiration? That strikes when it strikes! Here are ten laugh-out-loud excuses you can use to prioritize your DIY scrapbooking or card-making sessions over chores. (Your secret is safe with us!)

### 1. **“I can’t vacuum; the floor doubles as my craft supply staging area!”**
That glitter isn’t a mess—it’s a design in progress. You can’t rush art, and you certainly can’t vacuum it up!
---
### 2. **“Dust adds texture to my scrapbook pages.”**
Dust bunnies aren’t enemies—they’re natural embellishments. Who needs store-bought dimension when you’ve got “organic” effects?
---
### 3. **“The dishes can wait—this scrapbook layout is a once-in-a-lifetime masterpiece.”**
Dinner plates or design perfection? The choice is obvious. (Hint: It’s not the dishes.)
---
### 4. **“I’m saving energy by not overworking the mop.”**
Think of it as eco-friendly crafting. Plus, you’re conserving your energy for the really important stuff: photo placement.
---
### 5. **“Cleaning would ruin my perfect chaos.”**
Everything you need is *exactly* where you left it. Why mess with the system?
---
### 6. **“I need to assemble this new card kit right now or the universe might implode.”**
It’s not procrastination if it’s a crafting emergency, right?
---
### 7. **“Crafting is cheaper than therapy, so technically, I’m saving money.”**
A messy house might cause stress, but crafting relieves it. You’re just making a healthy life choice here.
---
### 8. **“I read that cleaning chemicals can damage crafting supplies.”**
Better safe than sorry! You can’t risk ruining your precious cardstock or photos, after all.
---
### 9. **“The house will still be dirty tomorrow, but inspiration might not wait!”**
Chores are patient. Your creative spark isn’t. You’re simply striking while the iron’s hot.
---
### 10. **“It’s National Scrapbook Appreciation Day!”**
