More DIY Kits
Some of the paper craft kits from the cruise are now available in my DIY Etsy Shop, along with some new designs based on those we did on the cruise. If you want any kit that is not in the Etsy Shop now, please and I'll add it.
Spring time gives me a chance to design some new pretties, e.g., an Easter Egg lantern (same procedure as the Nautical Lantern):
and a Floral Trinket Box with Iris Folding (same procedure as the Itinerary Trinket Box):
By the way, if you want a finished product rather than a kit, please let me know and I'll make it for you (for a fee, usually $10-$20).

Now In Etsy Shop
The Coupon Code given out during the cruise is good through the end of April (because it's taking me so long to get this all together - Murphey's Law, you know - everything will take longer than expected).
Some of the jewelry kits for the craft projects from the recent Incan Empires Cruise are now in the DIY Etsy shop, along with other similar kits. More are on the way. The Coupon Code provided in class can be used on all kits in the shop, not just those from the cruise.
One advantage to ordering through the web site is you get more choices. E.g., you can choose gold tone or silver tone findings (clasps, ear ring styles, neck chains, jump rings - all the "hardware"), and you can choose between earring hooks or posts. You also have a bigger assortment of colors to choose from.
Some of the kits have been modified. E.g., the clamp and clasp on the suede barcelets is now a magnetic cord-end clasp easier to assemble than the clamp and clasp. It is the modified versions that are sold in the Etsy shop.
New kits have been added, e.g., a necklace that coordinates with the Bling Earrings
