My Vintage Craft Finds
~Cynthia Brown
I love finding old beads, buttons, charms, fabric etc. in
craft shops, antique/flea markets and thrift stores. Today was a good day. I
found tones of vintage fabrics and other craft items that will keep me galvanized
for a while.
Equally exciting was my exhausting research on these
items. Take a look!

Rearch:
The General Mills toy division was spun-off as Kenner Parker
Toys Inc. (1985), which was then purchased by the Tonka Corporation (1987),
which was purchased by Hasbro (1991). But Vicky Edwards Gehrt in a 1995 Chicago
Tribune piece wrote that Craft Master ended up with International
Assemblix, now called Craft House.
(Craft House is currently run by Chartpak, Inc.,
and doesn’t use the Craft Master name, but rather the Original Paint-By-Number®
slogan.)
Craft House name and slogan be your own designer on package,
