 Hey guys, how are you today? So I want to bring you a review product or thing today that's a little unusual for us here in my creative year Doing mixed-me art You're gonna be like what the heck I've been doing a lot of sewing lately And if you all follow me on social media, you already know that and I have a bunch of sewing tools that are like gathering dust and rust and Yeah, so anyway some I am recently discovering and these are one of them these little beauties are Called Wonder Clips. They're not expensive. You can get them at the fabric department in any fabric store And of course you can find them on Amazon. I'll put a link in the description below they are intended for putting layers of fabric together instead of using pins and Especially when you're doing some things like I've been doing lately where you're putting zippers on. I don't have a zipper handy Let's see. Let's pretend Let's pretend this is a zipper. So you would put your fabric face up. I Would put my zipper on line it up with the edge. I Would put my lining fabric on and in the old days you would pin this and then take it to the machine and sew it and The way I've been doing it lately the outer fabric is usually Got some interfacing so in the old days you would run a bunch of pins along the edge and it's kind of a pain in the neck and You know you'd have to like do this and It's kind of bumpy today We have Wonder Clips. Wonder Clips are fabulous because you can just It's so much faster so much easier. I love them so much better And I'm less likely to poke myself and make myself bleed They're wonderful, and then you take them off as as you're sewing like you would with a pin And then when you're done everything sewn together, they're wonderful, but you know what they don't just work on fabric So what if you're working on a mixed media project? I just grabbed this piece of the scrap paper. I've got a bunch of journaling to do today This is my Dina Wakeley journal And what if you're working on a page and you're trying to figure out what kind of elements you want to go on there or Things are drying. I like to like dry fit things and I like to arrange things and I like the idea of Using the Wonder Clips to hold it together while I'm looking at it and trying to figure out where things go. I Love them. They're my new favorite thing. I Really find them easier to use than the little tiny These are great and I have a bunch of these I like these better the other clip that I like But it's bigger. I wouldn't use it in our journal But if you're doing something with multi layers like maybe you're gluing a bunch of bulky layers together on a journal cover, or maybe you're getting ready to bind Some signatures into a journal or glue them in and you need to like clamp everything together These are called spring clips and these are from Harbor Freight and I got six of them for a dollar this weekend So they're pretty pretty inexpensive and overall I like both of them better than these so clips Spring clips and Wonder Clips. I'm gonna link both of them in the description below Look outside the box if all you have is these these will work But the next time you're at the hardware store or the next time you're at the fabric store Take a look and see what they have because I think they might have something you might like better That's it for today. Don't forget to like share and subscribe And if you're not a member of my creative year, but you'd like to be the links in the description below Also above all go out and have a great day Do something nice for yourself because you deserve it and I'll see you later. Bye guys
