Soft Flex Holiday Crafting Merry-Thon: 25 Days of DIY Jewelry & Décor Ideas

Join us for the Holiday Crafting Merry-Thon! This holiday season, we want to inspire you to make it merry! We love a creative challenge and took a page from are Joyful Beading challenge you all love so much. From December 1st to 25th we invite you to join us for some merry making.

In December, we are hosting 25 days of crafting and jewelry prompts. DIY jewelry & décor ideas designed to lift your mood, ignite your holiday spirit and share in our VIB Studio Community with other lovers of handmade beaded creations! 

If you are feeling a bit overwhelmed or just in a creative holiday slump, we hope this inspiration will fuel your imagination and passion. This is an amazing way to get into the holiday spirit. And a festive way to make homemade decorations and gifts for your loved ones! Not only that, but 10 random winners will be chosen in January and they will receive $25 dollars in store credit at Soft Flex Company.

To participate, simply follow the calendar and create the daily prompt. Upload the photo of your work (and add this hashtag to your design - #merrybeading) to our Soft Flex VIB Studio Facebook Group to enter.
