8 Trending Maker Hashtags You Must Follow (and Use!)

Social media can be so much fun! Especially when you take part in the community by making friends and participating in fun events. Some of these events take place by using a specific hashtag that you can follow and contribute to. Many are temporary, meaning that they are used for a short period of time, and others are ongoing. Here are ten of my favourite Instagram hashtags that are specifically for Makers!
Debrosse_nyc invites you to create a leaf, crochet or knit, and gram it using her brand new hashtag inspired by the changing season. She will be reposting her favourites to her stories all month long, and on top of that she will be picking a grand prize winner to receive a seasons worth of PSLs (pumpkin spice lattes, for my less basic friends *hahaha*)! This is a great repost event, because not only can you fill your Instagram feed with those cozy Autumn vibes, but the project is quick and easy to complete. Choose your leaf pattern, or make one of your own and get ready to celebrate Fall! This hashtag has 23 posts under it’s belt so far.

This hashtag is HILARIOUS. Mainly because I can’t get my leg that high, and I would look ridiculous doing it.

Take a look through the feed for some casual inspiration and appropriate stance! This hashtag has 13 posts.
