IN THE CRAFT CLOSET

We have received a number of requests from our customers for craft equipment. In an effort to comply with these requests, we are now offering some of the "Boye Needle Company" products at a reduced price to supply you with these needs. The more products you purchase from us at our reasonable cost, the lower we can price our books and pamphlets. So, even though our prices are lower than retail, we can reserve some of the money you spend on these items and put it towards the higher cost of braille or large print books. This way, you can save on products and your books. Think of this when ordering gifts.
