It’s seen huge success in the US and now, Making It has come Down Under!

Unlike some other reality TV shows on our screens, this one sees contestants flex their crafty muscles, whether they’re amateurs or professionals, with challenges ranging from woodwork to pottery to sewing.

The winner will not only be crowned Master Maker but also pockets a tidy $100,000 prize money.

Whilst the American version stars Parks and Recreation stars Amy Poehler and Nick Offerman, Making It Australia is hosted by TV and radio personalities Susie Youssef and Harley Breen.

Judging the crafty hopefuls are Game of Thrones Production Designer Deborah Riley and paper creative Benja Harney.

But who are the Makers in the running? Keep scrolling to meet the Making It Australia contestants!
