Just want to wish every MOM a very Happy Mother's Day! May your day be filled with lots of joy, lots of laughter and the love of family. Now I am a mom as well but I will be spending Mother's Day with my mom, sisters, brothers, brother-in-laws, nieces, nephews, dad and my son. We will also be celebrating one of my sisters' birthday on that day (belated). One of my cousins will also celebrate her

My favourite card making tool is the ultimate crafter's companion. This tool has many features which makes crafting easier. I bought one last year and I have not regretted it as I use it in every way. Besides making my own cards I create my own envelopes to go with my designer handmade cards and so far my customers cannot tell the difference. I can now emboss not only my cards but my envelopes

Sometimes you have lots of odds and ends like nails, screws, buttons, hooks etc and dont know how or where to store them. If you have a storage box with small compartments then thats great but if you dont have one...why not store them in small ziplock or tape sealer bags. You can easily label these bags and store them in a drawer or a box dedicated for miscellaneous items.  This way you can

I love to create works of beauty which is what I call my collection of handmade greeting cards. For 2011 I have designed some new ones to celebrate different occasions- the birth of a new baby, a grand achievement, a wedding, an anniversary, birthdays and valentine's day. These are one of a kind cards which you and the receiver of these cards which surely appreciate, love and have as a keepsake.

I stumbled upon this idea for designing a handmade card placing the card's message on a bookmark which is detachable but leaves the card intact. You see I normally print the personalised message on paper, cut it out and glue with gluestick. This process can be painstaking at times getting the paper cut to the correct size as I often add a right hand border (with coloured cardstock) to the

Its June, the month for weddings and of course bridal showers. Looking for a different theme for a bridal shower why not try a tea party especially if the bride collects tea accessories or loves teas. What will definitely liven it up will be a tea tasting session and you can incorporate a game whereby the guests are asked to correctly identify the taste or maybe one or two ingredients of 3

I came upon some really dazzling gift paper in my 'surfing' today and I thought it looked really cool. I went on this site http://www.vacumet.com/vacumet-metallized-paper/gift-label/ Ooh I mean the words "sparkle,  shimmer, reflection" was spot on as the description of this gift wrapping paper. I can see myself using it for christmas. It would look really 'snazzy' under the christmas tree

Do you have a friend, a neighbour, a family member who loves giving gifts and takes pleasure in wrapping them all? Are you looking for something simple but unique that will create a presence in the minds of your customers? Did you know that gift wrapping supplies make great gifts too and can also be used for storing items.

I have been trying to keep up to date on information on gift wrapping and I came across an article on gift wrapping supplies basics and I thought it would be useful for you to read at http://www.containerstore.com/tip/view/wrapaccess At home I always have a couple of wrapping supplies handy for my business presentations as well as for gifts because I supply floral and gift shops in Trinidad and

Should I wrap in paper, cellophane or just put it in a gift bag? Would it be easier to wrap in a box because of its shape? Does it make sense to worry about how it is wrapped?  They are just going to throw the wrapping away or just tear open the wrapping paper. I am sure these are just some of the thoughts and/or questions going through your head when gift giving has to be done. Its already

Working a business from home has been a challenge for me. For 19 years, I had a permanent job and worked in an office- not quite as I worked mostly out on the field- with irregular hours, high pay with hardly time for family. In making the shift, I did not anticipate some of the challenges I would face. I do not have a home office but I designated a space in my bedroom for a small table as
