Hello and we're so happy you're joining us for A Crafty Soiree!
Before we get to the party, one of my all time favorite places, The Twinery, is giving away a Sampler Pack to one of you gorgeous peeps! Is it possible for twine to be delicious? These colors make my mouth water.
The Sampler Pack includes 120 yards total of eco-luxe, plush 100% cotton twine in 8 colors (15 yards of each color shown): Maraschino, Mandarin, Lemondrop, Peapod, Caribbean, Lilac, Pink Sorbet & Cappuccino. Here are a couple of simple tags I whipped up with my twine:
Here's the deal– visit The Twinery shop and c'mon back here and tell me what you'd use your new twine for if you won. While you're at it, enter these giveaways too!

I think I would use the twine as you did–for gift cards and as decorative accents on handmade cards and things for a cool touch of something extra.

I am having a love hate relationship with beautiful twine like this lately. I love it so much, and I hate that I don’t have any! I think I would first use it to decorate some frames that I want to hang on my walls! Then use it on some cards! Thanks for the chance to win!
Rita says
I love twine for so much thing, like tags and wrapping gift. So I would love to win!
Christy says
OK….I wasn’t entering b/c I know I won, like, the best gift ever from your blog! BUT….with your invite….I can’t resist this one! I heart these ties. I actually went to buy more at the craft store, and they were out!! I didn’t even know they came in multiple colors! I’m saving this site’s link for sure. As for what I’d do with it….first…I’d need to sleep with it under my pillow, and then I’d probably go order 10 more bundles of each color so I wouldn’t run out if I did use it…and then….gift wrap, cookie ties, gift tags….endless possibilities. :O)
cindy says
At the moment my favorite craft to make are banners, lots and lots of them. I use twine to weave the letters together and for the bows. :D
Steph says
I would use it to wrap gifts or to adorn a handmade card.
