Crafting Brands I Like

 

When I am making crafts, there are certain brands that I like...

• Faux leather from The Polka Dotted Peach.  They have so many different colors and textures such as embossed, glitter, Western patterns, even red, white, and blue faux leather.

• Keepsake Calico cotton from JoAnn Fabrics.

• Prismacolor pencils and markers which I order from Blick Art Materials because they heavily discount their items because they sell many of their items in bulk.

• Cardstock from 12x12 Cardstock shop.  They have it all!  Foil, glitter, smooth, textured, in every color and pattern you can think of.

• Pops of Color from Scrapbook.com.    There are similar products elsewhere, but Pops of Color are sold exclusively at Scrapbook.com, and they do just that... add an enamel pop of color like the dots on this card.
  
  
  
• Soft Minky fabric (also from JoAnn Fabrics).  There is not much that is softer thank this fabric, and it comes with "dots" or plain.
  
  
  
• MFDSJ Key Fob Hardware sold at Amazon.  This hardware is very sturdy and a good quality product.
  
  
  
• The Team Shop, also at JoAnn Fabrics.  If they don't have your professional football, baseball, basketball (etc.) team in stock at your local store, chances are you can get it online.
  
  
  
• Picture frames from Michaels.  They have a great selection in  several different prices ranges, and in my experience, they are made well.
  
  
  
• Digital Art from Creative Fabrica. They literally have millions of graphics, fonts, and designs, including pages and pages of freebies!
  
  
  
• Menkey earring hardware that is sold on Amazon.  I prefer the Sterling Silver hardware that comes with silicone backs.
  
  
  
• Fonts to use in graphics (in addition to Creative Fabrica) from So Fontsy.  Silly name, but a huge selection of fonts to use in your crafting.
  
  
  
• I prefer to get my cash back from Rakuten.  Most of the shops I've mentioned, obviously not Amazon, but the other retail shops both online and brick and mortar offer cash back when you use the Rakuten app which costs absolutely nothing.  I buy the same products I will normally buy, but now I get cash back for it.  It adds up, too.  I got my biggest check last year in February.  It was over $100, and seriously, I bought nothing extra to get it, and it cost me nothing to sign up.  In fact, they give you a sign-up bonus after you make a purchase or two.  I still don't understand why people don't use it!
