In a world where problems seem to get increasingly more complicated every year, fair trade is refreshingly simple. A fair price is paid for a day’s work in a safe environment. Think about that. It shouldn’t be a label that needs to be applied to packaging. And it shouldn’t have to be given a day of its own every May to ensure that people take notice. It should just be how the world works.

Take a look at the vintage-inspired products that sold at an annual vintage Christmas craft show, including repurposed vintage jewelry.

Perfect for hanging above the mantel or on your front door, this cinnamon himmeli garland project uses a few things in your pantry for a festive holiday DIY

Nigezza Creates aka Gez, Independent Stampin' Up® Demonstrator Thank you for joining me today for the 11th Project Share of the year with Jill AKA Paper Daisy Crafting. Every other Wednesday I will choose 3 projects from my crafty mate Jill and share them with you. I really hope you go and visit her blog and watch her videos on YouTube. I have picked 3 amazing projects to share with you, I am sure you will love them too :-) Just in case you are new to my blog let me introduce Jill she is on the left of this photo (I am on the right). She has a lovely Blog which I am sure you will want to check out once you see the projects I have chosen to show you. Project 1 Jill made this card for a fancy fold challenge. I really like this card because it is so bright and summery, which is odd for me because I do not normally go for yellow! I also love the sentiment topper on this card, the way the stitched circle sits inside the scallop circle is so effective. Click here for the original blog post :-) Project 2 I bought some tictacs ages ago to do this and have never got around to it ....love these that Jill has made and I am sure her customers will have liked them as well. This DSP makes them look so pretty, such a versatile pack. Click here for the original blog post :-) Project 3 This last card is a sneak peek at the new catalogue. This was an On Stage Make and Take ...I've not done mine yet! The birds have been coloured using the blends and Jill has done this so well that it looks so realistic. Don't think my effort will look so good! Click here to go to the original post :-) I hope you enjoyed the 3 projects I chose and I hope you will go and check out Jill's Blog, she also has video tutorials for each of these projects as well.
