Pattiewack was hard at work filling up the glitter jar. It's a hard job, but someone's gotta do it!

And look! Our friend Mr. Tacky Glue had his own buttons made to hand out. A glue's gotta do what a glue's gotta do for self promotion!

Countdown to CHA! Sneaky peek!

Mancrafting with Tie Dye

Tie Dye Guys....


Mancrafting at the iLoveToCreate booth recently at the CHA 2010 Trade Show was in full swing, as you'll see in this video.

The silk scarves at the Make-It-Take-It table were a huge hit. I mean, who doesn't LOVE tie dye? Who doesn't LOVE silk? And who wouldn't want their guy to make a beautiful gift with their two bare hands ? (Okay, so they WERE covered in plastic gloves.)

Eddie was making a surprise for his girlfriend when she walked up, so there is a bit of dye drama going on....



The process is simple.... Take your 100% silk scarf that you can pick up at the craft store, and tie it in knots, or twist it, or rubber band it, fold it, or whatever you can think of to make a design. As you'll see in the video, we now have a new dyeing term call "zshooozing" by one of the dudes, as well as "massaging" the dye into the scarf! (love it :-)

So, check out your dye color options at iLoveToCreate and make a scarf that would be perfect for Valentines Day, or any day!
