Black Friday Deal: eCraft Die Cutting Machine by Craftwell

by 1 Comment

We are starting our Black Friday Deals early just for our favorite readers! If you were looking for something special to add to your Christmas list this year, look no further! The eCraft by Craftwell is a die cutting machine that can cut not only paper but also fabric and even chipboard. With their special design software, you can create your own shapes and projects with just a few clicks. And if you want to purchase designs and go, the eCraft has cartridges as small as a camera memory card for that, so great for storing in small spaces.

Our friends at CutRateCrafts have a present for you, a special price on this brand new machine that is our lowest price of the season! We are offering the machine at $70 below the list price. You’ll get the eCraft Electronic Cutting System, the Fundamentals 1 Image Card, Two Black pens for the tracing feature, Five Blades, Paper Tray, Roller Attachment, The eCraftshop Design Software, and a USB Cable to connect the machine to your computer.


This brand new machine is the only electronic die cutting machine on the market that doesn’t require a mat, which means less consumables and a better value all around. If you want a machine that will help you mass produce gift bags for the holidays or invitations for a party, this machine offers a paper tray which will allow you to load paper, set the amount you want to cut, and then walk away. Perfect for people who want to create many of the same design.

Here are a few projects to show you just what this amazing machine can create:

Paper Star Luminaries
Snazzy Earrings
Festive Fall Frame
Hanging Recipe Holder
Wooden Photo Plaque
Sweetheart Box

 

And if you haven’t seen how simple this machine is to use, let Emily from Craftwell show you:

Yarn Mania at Bernat

by 1 Comment

I was a guest feature at Spinrite’s Yarn Mania that is held once a year. Yarn Mania is a really tame expression in comparison to the shoppers loading up Garbage Bags of yarn in the huge tent outside of the Factory Outlet in Listowel Ontario Canada. The Factory Outlet is within steps of the actual manufacturing of Bernat, Lily, and Patons Yarn Products.

Bernat's Yearly Factory Outlet Clearance.
Spinrite, makers of Bernat & Patons, clears out yarn in mass once a year in Listowel Ontario Canada. It’s a feeding frenzy of yarn sales.

I’ve never been before but I heard it’s absolute yarn chaos. The tent is hopping mad as people stuff their bags. Some people stuff up to 10 Garbage Bags or more of yarn and are making several trips to the Car. Don’t worry though, they left their husbands behind as that is great use for two extra bags of yarn in the passenger seat!

 
The weather started off really great and then as the day progressed turned as the skies opened up and torrential rain fell. Thank goodness everything was protected by the tent. As we packed up our things, Diva Dan was drenched right to the bone. It hasn’t rained in our region for nearly 6 weeks and so this is very much welcome!
 
This was so much fun, I can’t wait for next year! The laughs, the sharing, and deals make for a wonderful day!
