I know I might be able to find the answer to this question by carefully reading the definition of these words but maybe you can give me a hand with it. What exactly is the difference between the words 'handiwork' and 'handicraft'?

Many thanks,
Torsten

Handicraft relates to traditional 'craft' type activities.

Handiwork is more general and can relate to a wider number of activities.
