The Charmed Class

Namaste Guys

We all love our charms! The possibilities for them are endless. Do you know how the tradition of using them on craft project started? In olden day people didn't have ready made stickers , die cuts or other pre-made embellies we have today!! So, they got creative and started to use what they have to embellish and add interest to their letters, diaries and journals!! These were the first beginnings of scrap-booking collecting letters and photos and tickets, and such in diaries!! People began to use broken jewelry and jewelry findings to adorn and embellish their pages!! And till date this practice has evolved where there are charms and findings created for the passionate Crafter!

Now on with my today's post and I am so super excited. I have had so many requests for tutorials that I had to comply and here it is!

Today is not just a post but a class!! Although you all are very creative and love your charms, but, this is a back to basic of how else to use your charms! So, you can get more from them and use them in not only your cards, scrapbooks and altered art, but in daily use things and make fun stuff for gifts ( Christmas is coming !! Hint! hint!)

Here it is my Charmed Class and if you have any requests and queries leave them for me in the comment!!
