Eyeglass Chains - New Catagory in My Artfire Studio


I have added a new catagory to my Artfire Studio -  Eyeglass Chains.  They are about 28" long with black elastic holders on each end for a tight grip.  I used Czech Glass seed beads with many different glass bead  and silver tone bead accents.  I have also made a Halloween item with black and orange seed beads with orange Lampwork bead accents.  I plan to make a few more holiday inspired eyeglass chains to add a little fun to your wardrobe.

Craft Tip of the Week - Cardmaking

Like most crafters, I have lots of different ideas rolling around in my head at one time.  That definitely goes for cardmaking.  I could be thinking about birthday, Christmas and Halloween all at the same time.  When I have lots of different ideas, I use a clear plastic sheet protector for each card.  I put the card and any embellishments in the individual sleeve and have all my ideas for that card in one place.  I can leave and come back to each one knowing all of my items are in one place.  The sheet protectors, which are 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" are also a good way to store and ship the card when it's done.
