We here at the Handmade Circle Team  are some Busy Bee's!  We have a lot of exciting things going on right now, here are some of the great things buzzing around Handmade Circle!


 First up we have 3 team members who have Birthday's this month:
Shannon Rose from - A Moment In Paradise
Jayne Willis from - Twiggy & Opal
Delphine Wilson from - Dels Yarn Basket


 Something Spooky is coming next week to Handmade Circle, it's still brewing in the cauldron, but keep watching our Handmade Circle Fan Page for more details, so make sure you like our page.  I promise that you won't be Tricked!

We had a Wacky Wednesday Event on our group page this week, I requested each team member post one wacky fact about themselves that we did not know.  I promised I wouldn't reveal all the answers, but I will say I definitely learned some things about my team!  Seriously this is a great and fun way to get know your team better and we all really enjoyed it. 

We also have a Question Of The Week, and this week's question was:  
YOU ARE STRANDED ON AN ISLAND, WHAT ARE TWO TOOLS FROM YOUR HANDMADE SHOP THAT YOU WOULD WANT TO HAVE IN YOUR POCKET, AND WHY?
Here are some of the great answers!

meggiebabe - Big Needle and exact-o knife, for sure! I could use the big needle to sew together foliage, and the exact-o knife to cute different shapes and sizes of whatever it may be that I need! 
KatKeRosCorner - One of my scrunchies to keep my hair out of my face and one of my bookmarks to keep my place in all the books that keeps washing ashore.
DelsYarnBasket - One of my face/wash cloths, to keep my self some what clean, while stranded.
ChelstersCreationsWire cutters to cut branches and micro torch to start a fire!
gristmilldesigns - I would take my shiniest beads and lay them out in sand to spell ''help!'' Hopefully a plane would see them reflecting light...
I would also take my sharpest beading tool so I could open a coconut for survival!
ifrogcrafts -   My drill & wire. Figure i could at least create sculptures. Ooh! And maybe a raft. lol 
ClassyJewelryShop -  A pair of rosary pliers to make fish hooks and my torch striker for fire. 
TwiggyandOpal -  my rotary cutter for chopping my coconuts. 
my fabric scrap bin...i could weave a blanket for the cold nights! 
CreativeWorksOfArt -  My LIKE and FOLLOW buttons, so I can be heard! 
BethanyBryant - My oil pastels and a huge sketchbook to capture all of the scenery! :) Hopefully the pastels wouldn't melt!
AND MY FAVORITE:
GoGreenWithRed -  Rotary cutter to cut up coconuts and brush to make shelter... and fabric scraps to cleanse thy self of P.U.
There was many more great answers, Handmade Circle is certainly a resourceful team!

In addition to our fun stuff, the whole team has been busy as bees creating new items for their shops!  Look at some of these great things!
