You know what they say about what happened in Vegas, well what happened at the Craft and Hobby Association Trade Show gets to be shared and remembered.  I met so many nice people who are passionate about their crafts, got to try new products and most importantly spread the word that paper beads are not just for kids anymore.  Images speak louder than words right?

Don’t you think this is nice to have for your shop or your home?  I would like to make this in recycled card board and upcycled embellishments what do you think?

What a cool way to make use of egg cartons, I have a stack of them just waiting to be made into something.  These are made out of colorful wire from a company called Twisteez wire, for more ideas visit their website twisteezwire.com.
