An eclipse and the Hilltop Street Fair!

One of the things we do here at Amala Beads Worldwide is solving problems.  I couldn't find a nice twine for a shell necklace project so I made my own!  I found a couple of tutorials on YouTube about making twine with cedar bark and, as I don't want to strip the bark off the cedar tree in our back garden I used raffia instead.

I'm working on a video that will show you the steps so you can make your own twine - I'll post it in the very near future.
