Inspirational Cards


I am having trouble typing at this moment! I am so pleased and excited about the new line of inspirational cards. There are cards for Birthdays, Belated Birthdays, Get Well, Sympathy, Friendship, Thank you's and then cards for Encouragement, Praying For You, Thinking of You, For Kids, Love, Your Special and more. They are absolutely adorable and there are sayings in them that express exactly what is on your mind. All of these are just .99 cents. They are located in the Inspirational Room along with another spinner rack full of boxed cards, and inspirational journals.

I can't even pick one journal that is my favorite, because I absolutely love them all!
The boxed cards feature VeggieTales, Marjoein Bastin, Whiskers and Paws to name a few. Truly I just can not express how excited I am about this line. I really believe that you will want some for yourself and then for gifts as well.

"Advice from...."


Author Ilan Shamir's whole idea with the Advice from Nature line is for people to discover their own nature, set it free, and to live in harmony. That is why he has designed these really special postcards designed to give you a positive feeling and a smile.

These postcards are great the way they are, or you can customize them with your own photos or drawing. There are 4 new ones we have this year; Advice from the Earth, Advice from Moon, Advice from the Campfire, and Advice from the Loon. Adding these to our collection means that we have 22 postcards to choose from. All of them are made from recycled paper and over 60,000 trees have already been planted to replace the paper that is used to make the products.

I want them all!!!

Snap-N-Wraps!

They are not trading cards, but they are the hottest thing on the west coast and making their way here fast! They are called Snap-N-Wraps. They are rubber bracelet bands that come in neon colors. The ones we have right now are assorted animals: Farm, Zoo, and Sea. Wear them as bracelets and then watch them snap back into their animal shape. It really works!! They are great fun to collect and trade.

Jewelry Fashion Room

I am so excited!
We have beautiful new rings in. They are very trendy and great colors, something to match any outfit. They will fit any finger size, and the price is perfect. Along those same lines we have rhinestone stretchy bracelets. Extremely elegant and they also come in a large array of colors.

If this isn't enough to satisfy your shopping desires, we also have sunglasses! We are having difficulty keeping them in stock. Actually, that may be a little exaggerated. We do have plenty in stock, but we have been reordering them. They are max. 400 UV protection and super cute.

Never a dull moment at Crafts Direct, so on your next visit, make sure and check out the jewelry fashion room. It is close to the exit next to the pashminas.

Inspirational Ornaments


Simple pleasures! That seems like a great way to describe these new ornaments in the inspirational room. There are hearts and stars in fun colors with one simple word on them. These ornaments have a ribbon hanger with a bead and a charm with one word on the charm. Very fun and uplifting.

Mini*mergency



It is so astounding! This is a tiny silver bag with 15 tiny necessities that should help get you through those little "emergencies." This kit comes with things like hair spray to earring backs. Dental floss to sewing kits. It all fits into a compact silver travel purse that can fit into your purse.

It would make a great gift for graduations, bride and bridesmaids, evenings out, or just to have in your vehicle "Just in Case"!

You will be amazed at the ease there is in finding the item you need and packing it in the travel purse. Check it out!
