Desert Island Crafts – Part 6

gem drawer
This is my gem drawer.  I cannot have enough flat back gems and pearls.  Paperchase gems are the best value I have ever found at £2.75 for a pot of over 200.
cotton buds
My desk isn’t complete without cotton buds for tidying up blobs of glue and an assortment of mini pegs for keeping boxes together while the glue dries.
CARD STACK
This is my stock of white and silver card.  They are directly to my right when I sit at my desk so that I can select what I want easily.
I get all my white and cream card from The Papermill Shop online in a Megabox, usually in white or ivory linen.  I get through at least 4 boxes a year!
I cut all my own card blanks so that I can can get just the right size for my envelopes.

  4. I am also a fan of the papermill mega boxes - I love the fact you get money off for re-using the box.

    I was wondering where you got your envelopes from? I am always looking for decent quality square ones esp. in a range of colours?

Thank you for wanting to leave a comment. I HATE verification and apologise for the extra bother it causes, however, if I don't have it I get all sorts of dubious spam added and the comments would be bogged down utter ***p!

Occasionally I get comments on posts from several years ago, again, I have to apologise, copies of TEMPLATES etc. that I once offered are now NO LONGER AVAILABLE, when my last computer died, I lost everything and decided not to replace any them.
