Papers, Papers, Papers….all over the show we see the greatest paper products
used for scrapbooking, paper crafts, home design or however else you desire to
use them which leads to one of the themes of this show…."anything goes, just try
it!" The leading craft companies are pushing consumers to have no fear and
to have the courage to create something, even if it fails because the mistakes
will help you make something better the next time.
From bright colors to pastels to altered artforms, papers are the star of
this show with new designs and endless possibilities for you…..check them out at
retail.
More to come…..
