Our Gone Batty Design Kit was a haunting mix of cute, spooky and fun. Our holiday infused jewelry making kits are always a blast to put together. For this collection, we scared up a mix of fun charms and Gothic beads. Check out the finished jewelry designs from this kit and join us for Kit Day. Kit Day is a Soft Flex Company 'holiday' that occurs on the last Wednesday of each month. If you have not joined us for Kit Day before, inspiration is sure to fly from the belfry! Watch as we unbox our recent kit and reveal our newest curated collection of beading supplies!
Kit Day is here! The last Wednesday of each month seems to arrive so fast. Put it on your calendar. It will be here before you know it! Watch our live shows as we release our newest kits and unbox our previous kits. We reward our live viewers with a special giveaway chance. You can find replays of our kit reveal shows on our Facebook and YouTube pages.
Check out our Design Kits! Each kit is a themed collection of beading supplies. You never know where one of our kits will transport you! All of our kits are thoughtfully designed and curated. You are going to love the supplies inside! Our kits are limited in quantity and usually sell out before the end of the month. At the end of each month, we reveal our recent kit on the Soft Flex Facebook page and YouTube Page. Open your kit when you get it or wait for Soft Flex Company to reveal the contents and open yours along with us live!

Gone Batty Jewelry Making Kit Reveal
This cave hides a wonderful secret. Hanging from the crags and cracks in the ceiling is a cauldron of bats. These mammals hide in the unseen darkness. Their talons lock in a relaxed state and they hang upside down. Their tiny hearts pump with enough force to keep blood rushing, even in this unusual posture. Unlike other creatures of flight, these night wings have trouble achieving air from ground. They drop from a high perch to launch themselves into the sky. Even more curious, this animal of shadow flies with their hands. Their wings are actually thin membranes divided by fingers. Don't fear these stealthy aviators. They are not the undead vampires of lore. They are amazing denizens of darkness.

We gathered a small assortment of fun designs from our VIB Facebook group. There were so many wonderful ideas and jewelry pieces. You really need to join our group to see them all. A lot of our members also have stores online. If you see a design you love, make sure you let the designer know. They may sell you that design or at least let you know how they made it. We would love to see your work too, join us today!
VIB is a great place to visit. It is an online bead gathering. It is a place to chat and meet new friends. It is a great way to stay social. You can learn a new tip or technique daily. You can get inspired by the gorgeous jewelry designs other people in the community post. You can also get your own jewelry gently critiqued if you want pointers on how to make your designs really stand out. We love wallflowers and chatty designers alike. Lurk or showcase your talent. You are going to love our fun club.
If you would like to see more Halloween themed jewelry, go to our VIB group. In the 'Search this group' field (or magnifying glass icon on the upper right), type or paste this: #batty. This will search the themed designs we hash tagged.
