::Current Crush Thursdays::My Rotary Tool::

Okay, so normally, I would be here telling you about my latest love in the fashion world or something like that, but I have to get something off my chest... I am, at heart, a tom-boy. I know, I know, "but Alli, you like CLOTHES! And you design jewelry!!" You're right, but growing up being a daddy's girl, I always wanted to hang out with my dad, so I gained a love of tools and cars (you will likely see a car post up here one day soon, for reals). And this week, I'm gonna talk about my absolute favorite tool in my collection, my rotary tool...

This is not my actual rotary tool, but you get the idea...

Why am I telling you all this? Because I'm a crafter and I feel that every crafter should have a rotary tool... Dead serious on this one. Look at all those awesome bits that come with this thing!!! There's a few for cutting, a few for sanding and a few for polishing and MANY, MANY more. If you like to craft, I highly recommend one of these. They make small sanding projects a breeze (no seriously, it's saved my hands on numerous occasions). Now I have you interested in power tools, huh?? Well, for those of you saying "I do a ton of sanding, but it's all large," here's my bonus crush of the week, my power sander!

Again, not my exact one...

PS, added bonus: you look like a BAMF. My boyfriend LOVES that I know how to use power tools.

    1. It's the best! I make jewelry and it makes polishing my jewelry a breeze and it's super easy to sand the inside of a ring... imagine trying to sand the inside of a ring by hand... know that it's 10x worse than what you're imagining... :)
      Thanks for stopping by!
