Wow – this is so neat! I think my favorite crafting gadget is actually not so much for making crafts but for helping to see while making crafts – my Ott light. Using just the overhead light in my crafting room creates shadows making it hard to see things at certain angles but I can put my Ott light right over the area I’m working so make it so much easier to complete my crafts. I don’t know how I survived before I got it. 🙂
Wow the things I could do with a bias tape maker!!
My favorite craft tools are my hands…I did not know they could operate a sewing machine, make hairbows with a glue gun or learn to create in Photoshop. My favorite gadget is my sewing machine.
My current fav would be my new sewing machine. I’ve finally gotten to all the things that need fixing/altering that I’ve put off. I’ve also had fun creating new clothes for my little girls!~
My favorite gadget right now would be my glue gun! I am just starting my collection so maybe that’s why 🙂
