Advent Tins Calendar by InspiredMeCrafts.com

My project pick this week is from www.inspiremecrafts.com. If you have been saving all those small tins, here is a great project - an Advent Calendar. Although this design is made from circle tins from the dollar store, I'm thinking it would be cool to make it from mint tins too! Love it! >>Heidi

Our feature interview this week is with the woman who started it all in the craft industry - Aleene Jackson. Before there was ever an inkling of Michaels Arts and Crafts stores, or before Wal-Mart, K-Mart or Ben Franklin stores knew that there was a difference between hobbies and crafts, Aleene Jackson was laying the foundation for what is today known as the $31 billion dollar craft industry. In 1967, Aleene launched the Aleene's Craftmakers Caravan which was the pivitol point in the birth of the craft industry. Check out our Aleene Jackson Craft Museum to see photos and history about this event. On this episode of Inspired at Home Radio, Aleene answers your questions!

She says she is never bored as every day brings a fun and different creative challenge. Flower Soft is a unique embellishment for many crafts and hobbies that has created quite a buzz with crafters in the US and world-wide. Noreen travels the globe to demonstrate and enjoys seeing the crafters' faces when they see how easy and fun Flower Soft is to use!

I would imagine not too many people know what bee pollen really is. Most of us have heard of it and know it is good for us but not what it is. Bee on Flower It is pollen collected by the bees. It takes at least 50 trips worth of pollen to bring 1 gram of pollen back to the hive. Bee keepers actually place scrapers in the hive entrance to remove pollen from the bees on their entrance back into the hive. Bee pollen is used medicinally for energy, stress relief, as a general body tonic, to enhance your immune system and for physical and mental performance. Because it is rich in protein, vitamins and minerals, bee pollen stimulates the metabolism and promotes healthy growth. Bees give us other products such as royal jelly which is food that is fed to queen bees, propolis which is a resinous substance collected from trees and used to block fungi, bacteria and viruses in the hive and of course, honey which is also really, really good for you!. There is a caution for people who have pollen allergies may be allergic to bee pollen. Next time you are out in the garden take a moment to appreciate the bees who work so hard for other bees and for us! >>Candace

My pick this week is the book New Menopausal Years, The Wise Woman Way: Alternative Approaches for Women 30-90 by Susun Weed. This is a fabulous book about menopause. I highly recommend it because it gives so much information about anything you would find in your menopausal journey. It is a great resource for dealing with hot flashes, weight gain, attitude and so much more! >>Candace

My pick for the final few is from The New Image Group. I LOVE their printed felt. With great designs from whimsical ladybugs or bright neon prints, there are lots of great prints to choose from. How about creating your own safari adventure with this 6-Pack Animal Skins Assortment. It's a fresh take on felt!>>Tiffany
