Down Sunshine Lane has added a lot of new magnets to their online store. I think the sock monkeys will be particularly popular but there is something for every taste. I like the colorful sand dollar and the crab, Little Red Riding Hood, and the castle plus the Fairest of Them All mirror. The hand drawn wooden needle minders from Michelle Palmer are lovely, by the way.
http://downsunshinelane.com/magnets.htm
Color Complements is starting to dye a new thread--a very narrow flat ribbon. It's actually a tubular chainette of rayon viscose about the width of Neon Rays but it is smaller than Flair and can't have another thread snaked through the middle. I don't know about beads, though....

Geri of Pippin Studio has posted five photographs of the new small angel, snowman and Santa canvases from Pippin on Facebook. She says there are a dozen of them, but I'm unclear if there are twelve total or twelve Santas, twelve angels, etc. There are four wonderful small beach critter pieces, too. They are called Chomp (for the shark), Peek (for the seal), Snap (the crab) and Squawk (the seagull).

Leigh Designs has a new Ashland Sky bag style -- the "Stick Sack." It's a good place to put those stretcher bars, large scissors and other big items you want to carry without damage. They come in nine colors (second link below) and are 14.5 inches long by 6 inches wide. Plenty of room for your stretcher bar collection, or even your knitting needles.
