In many ways, Martha Stewart, lifestyle mogul extraordinaire, is the original maker.

Over the course of her career, Stewart, who appeared on the cover of Wired’s 2007 “How To” issue, has empowered millions of people to be creative in their own homes.

“We’ve made a business out of DIY,” Stewart told the Wired Business Conference. “We turn dreamers into doers.”

There is virtually no area of the media outside the reach of Stewart’s company, Martha Stewart Omnimedia, from print and digital publishing, to broadcasting, to branded merchandise.

In fact, Stewart said, she’s been accused of spreading herself too thin. She doesn’t buy it.
