Long before the birth of the Bedazzler, the crafting world has been drawing folx in with the allure of making things with their own hands. Nothing beats the feeling of accomplishment that comes from making it yourself. Pride of workmanship and seeing your project come to life brings a true satisfaction. The joy that a handmade gift brings to the recipient is well worth the many hours invested. To be honest, we would be doing it anyway for the sheer joy of the act. Crafters talk about their craft of choice with a passion that is often missed in this world.

Every question has an answer. Every problem has a solution. Every soul knows the direction of its path. This empowering and all encompassing knowledge lives in the collective "inner mind" realms of the universal unconscious. This realm of knowledge is accessible to anyone at anytime.
