Day 3: Come See Color With Me - Sneak Peeks!

Roadies, we are back to show you some new stuff from Maya Road! Today we are going to concentrate on some of our fabulous Trims and Trinkets in lots of fun colors! Are you ready? Remember to leave a comment on your favorite today for a chance at a $25 prize pack of new MR goodies!

Let's start with our Tulle Trims - this time in Slushie Blue and Lemon Yellow:

And if you didn't catch what you can do with our tulle, check out one of our latest video tutorials on making a beautiful flower with it!

And next, we have some of our most delish trim ever - our Vintage Rhinestone Trim - every single jewel is handset and each jewel is finished in an iridescent shimmer . We have our Amber, Emerald and Iridescent Diamond colors. Just a little tiny bit of the trim makes the most fabulous accent. The jewels are set in a beautiful metal setting that you can easily twist to cut apart or use some strong clippers:

And you know our fabulous Small Organza Roses Trim that we have had in our line for a while? We are going smaller by adding some Mini Organza Roses Trim:

If you can imagine these sweet flowers are 40% smaller than our Small Organza Roses Trim. That means you get even more tiny roses per yard (about 70 small roses/ yard). And you can change the colors by inking, misting or painting them. How cool is that?

Next we have some Frayed Edge Pleated Trim. We left the edges unfinished for a natural look but the colors are beautiful for beautiful flower making in Khaki, Denim and Faded Cherry:

And of course we added some new colors of Zipper Trim. We have had over 50,000 views on our Zipper Trim Brooch Tutorial and these colors would make the perfect Spring Zipper Flowers in Leaf Green, Sunshine Yellow and Bubblegum Pink:

Next we also have some Soft Vintage Scallop Trim in Cream and Mauve - these are lovely on their own or stitch them in a circle and add some bling to make your own fabulous flowers:

And we also cannot forget our Antique Pearl Center Flower Trim. This amazing trim is almost 2.5" wide and each flower is accented with pearls and a rhinestone. Each yard of the trim will give you ~16 flowers per yard. Cut each flower off the tulle backing and use! We will be selling these trims by the roll and half yard packages to the stores.

Still with us? Because we cannot forget our Trinket Pins - this time we are bringing you 3 different sets - Buttons, Dark Brown Vintage Pearl and Pearl Butterflies:

And we will wrap it all up with some cool Blossoms and Flowers from Maya Road. Check out first these Felt Pearl Poisies in Cream, Pink and Brown:

Next what about some Vintage Denim Roses (that do match the Frayed Edge Pleat Trim):

And what about some Vintage Sequins Blossoms - in Milk and Bubblegum or Cream and Smoke:

And some of our most favorite new flowers - our new Vintage Edge Mums. Each of these flowers are close to 3" in diameter. You can alter them with Maya Mists, inks and more.

And we cannot have all these pretty flowers and trims with some leaves to go with them. How about some Leaf Beads:

And we also have lovely Fabric Leaves that are the perfect accents:

And here are some projects from our design team to inspire:

We have a $25 MR CHA-W release prize pack ready to give away.

Maya Road CHA-W Sneak Peek Week Starts Now!

Roadies, are you ready for Sneak Peek Week? We are so excited to share everything with you. To start we wanted to share with you some stickers we had made for the show:

We will be passing them out to all Roadies who stop by our booth at the CHA-W tradehow. If you are there be sure to ask for one! The Roadies that take a photo of themselves with the sticker on during CHA and post to our Maya Road Facebook Page, we are going to have a fun set of giveaways with that! We will share more about that next week!

Let's get started with our peeks!

First off, we are so excited to bring you Maya Road's new Twine Cording in 6 delish colors:

This twine cording is a bit different than what is out there in the market. The cording is a bit thicker in diameter than baker's twine. It has a nice presence when used alone or tied as an accent piece. The best part? You get over 100 yards for a retail price of about $5.99 in the US!

Here is a peek of what it looks like on some of our larger wooden spools:

Next we want to follow that up with some of our fun Linen Burlap Line. You can buy Treasure Bags, Roses and even Trim. The material is a fine linen material that is perfect for altering and more!

Next we have our new Wooden items. We love that you can leave the wood as is, alter them with paints, Maya Mists or Inks!

We love our new Vintage Sewing Spools (these guys are about 1.5" tall and 1.2" wide) and our Vintage Chunky Spools (these are about0.6" tall and 0.5" wide):

And remember these Spool Sentiment Stamps?

They are perfectly sized to fit on the top of the Vintage Sewing Spools. How cool is that?

Next we have our Vintage Mini Wood Butterflies and also our Vintage Wood Birds:

And some cute and fun Vintage Wood Boy and Vintage Wood Girl Rabbits:

And finally, we have added some of the cutest Vintage Tiny Rulers around. Each of these are about 2.0" x 0.6".

As part of our Metal Collection, we also have some hangers that are the perfect accents for pages. Check out these Love Hangers and Dress Form ones:

That is our peek for today. See anything you love?

Check out how our design team used these products in cool ways:

We have a $25 MR CHA-W release prize pack ready to give away. Leave us a comment and tell us what your favorite from today's peek is. Each day is a new chance to leave a comment on that day's peek. All winners will be picked on February 8th, 2012 and posted here. Good luck.
