craft to me is anything that you create or alter with your own hands

For me a craft is something you do to occupy your time. Cross stitching using a kit would be an example of a craft.

Art is something you create because you need to and it ususally conveys emotion or captures a moment in time.

Craft: "Ah cute."
Art: "Wow! *stands there looking at it for a while* That is deep, man."
