New Palm Reading Hands + Tiny Shrine Bookmark By Chrissy Colon + More


Happy Weekend Everyone! I'm really excited about the new Palmistry hands (and arms!) in the shop. Perfect for so many of your mystical projects! They work nicely for Halloween too. What does the future hold? Perhaps a purchase from Retro Cafe Art Gallery? (couldn't resist). More styles in the shop, so check them out!
 




Feature Inspiration By Chrissy Colon!  
Design Team member Chrissy Colon has a sweet project for you! See how she transformed a tiny house shrine into a lovely bookmark. It may be small, but it's still packed with lots of detail and some lovely lessons along the way. Great project Chrissy!
