Crafts on TV

I have owned a heat gun for many years, and one thing I do not understand is why more people do not own them as a tool for their crafts. A heat gun has let me able to create the most amazing cards and posters for my friends and family. I had been to many home shows to find a craft heat gun without much success. However, after watching the home craft shows on the television I noticed one heat gun they used and looked it up online. It was listed for sale by some small online retailer so I contacted them to make sure they still sold it. After that was confirmed, it was bought and sent my way within minutes and arrived on my door step in rural Kansas within two or three days. Now that I have it, I cannot think of how I managed without the heat gun.

Excited to Get a New Sewing Machine

Roger Brock's blogMy old sewing machine is dying. It has a hard time right now. It doesn’t like to stay at one speed and it bogs down really easy. It is very frustrating. I look at my stitches and it looks like my 12 year old daughter did them. Well that is not fair even she does a better job than that. So I am in the market for a new machine. I mostly do mending on my machine but given a nicer machine I would like to do some more crafts and some quilting. I started asking some friends about their machines but theirs were mostly hand me downs like mine or given to them as wedding gifts. So I started to do some research online and found alot of sewing machine reviews. It was very helpful and gave a list of features that each model had. It also had customer reviews that told the pro and cons of the many models, most helpful. I am ready to get my sewing machine.

If you make it a point to give a card made of paper, you will be providing your loved ones with a touch of nostalgia for the days when Internet wasn’t still invented.
