My Favorite Tools
In order to craft, I have to have tools. Sometimes I use the same tool over and over for years, and other times I go through tool after tool. I have several tools that I use daily, and others not as frequently. I have several that I hoard!! I want to share with you the tools I love the most!! I stock up on my most needed and my favorite tools!! Some times I have found it better to invest in more expensive tools that will last a long time rather than use cheaper tools that need to be replaced frequently.
Taking care of your tools will save you money in the long run from continually replacing them!! I recorded a Live Video that highlighted some of my favorite tools and how I take care of them!! I listed links to find as many of these items as I could find!! Just click the work video in the next line to watch the video. I will come back and add to this list when I find more tools that we all need!!!

Silhouette Cameo
I love my Silhouette Cameo – I have used two of the original Cameos and now use my Cameo 2 with my Cameo 3 as my back up. Since I rely on my Silhouette machine to operate my business, I always keep a back up machine. That way, if my machine dies (I use mine almost daily) than I am not forced to replace it at full price and I don’t have to wait to go get one or until one ships to me!
