**NEW SMALL SIZE E6000 GLUE**

Due to popular requests we now carry the little tiny e-6000 glue tubes. Suitable for small jobs, saves wastage. Of course the large tubes are still available!

A must for any jewellry or button making. A long time favorite and extremely hard to find. E6000 adheres to more surfaces, waterproof, flexible and is stronger than super glue. Perfect to secure buttons,cabochons, to adhere rhinestones to decorative items, wood, metal, glass, fibreglass, ceramics etc. Use in a well ventilated area.This cement does not dry instantly, before the glue sets you have 5 minutes to make adjusments. For maximum strength bond, allow 24-72 hours for complete curing.This is the smallest tube you can buy 5.32ml (.18fl oz) Suitable for small projects. Also comes in the Large tube if you have large jobs. Note: Due to airline safety regulations, this item will not be shipped out of Australia

****NEW CUFF STYLE BRACELETS****

These bracelets are an EXCLUSIVE find !!!!! Cuff style, fits all adults size wrists as it stretches over the wrist when putting it on. These fabulous, silver toned bracelet blanks are a fantastic new find.... They have a nice, wide 25mm base to attach your flat back buttons (28mm +) or cabochons, flowers etc to. These fabulous, silver toned bracelet blanks are $10.00 each or available in Bulk 10 pack for $70

Use your imagination!!

What a great christmas gift idea!!

FABRIC CIRCLE DIE CUTTING MACHINE

I get asked all the time how we cut so many fabric circles for our buttons. People think that is the most tedious and time-consuming part of button making.

Well, the answer is, for any button that needs print placement in the middle of the button, the fabric needs to be hand cut after tracing around our fabric templates using the inner circle to line up the print...there is no easier way.......and the fabulous Patricia does an awesome job hand cutting each fabric circles we sell!!

The good news however, is when we cut spots, stripes, floral patterns or any fabric that does not need specific prints in the middle of the button, we use a die cutting machine that cuts 6 layers of fabric at a time!! Yes!! Very handy and quick to use.

The die has 4 different size circles on it so cuts all from once piece and because it can cut layers of fabric that means 24 circles in one hit!! The size of the circles correspond with our buttons perfectly..25, 37, 50 and 62mm diameter.

If you would like to purchase one of these machines with the die, they retail for $210.00 together (plus postage)

(please note this machine can be used with other scrapbooking dies so is not just limited to fabric circles)

VERY LIMITED STOCK ONLY, FIRST IN, BEST DRESSED...

Please contact Kerrie if you are interested.
