24 Hour Crafting Shows 11/5/19…………Post your opinion!

Like many of you, I look forward to the 24 hour Craft Events. Sadly, this was my least favorite. It seemed there was no variety whatsoever and no need to tune in once you saw the first couple of shows. Back when there were items for scrapbooking and so many fun vendors and items. Hopeful for January’s show. Happy holidays to everyone.

Anna has been the Queen of paper rafting for a very long time so I suspect she is threatened by the serious competition from Sara. Hsn does need to keep it in check.
I love Anna’s look & style for some things but CC has such great variety and innovation that I’ve been buying more from them. Anna stays within her specific style but that is limiting and many people these days like a more modern upbeat look so I prefer CC products for the things I craft for them. I didn’t buy either this time because I just don’t have the time or stamina to do much and already have tons of product.
HSN needs CC, as a primary vendor, not just Anna, so I hope they can keep peace in the house.
On Crafts day, I do expect a good variety of products presented beside those two so I don’t need to look elsewhere. JMHO

Although Anna Griffin products are good there is way too much of the same thing and color tones. I bought the swivel and pop Christmas card set in August, I think. The embellishments are not that great compared to CC, and I got a whole load of mistletoe embellishments and little else. I prefer Hunky Dory products for Christmas. I only have two Anna Griffin products, the Halloween one which I love and this Christmas lot that I am not too crazy about. Why not have Graphic 45, Bo Bunny, Echo Park. There is a greater variety. Although I don’t do traditional scrapbooking, for those ladies that do and love it, there is also no variety. I agree, let the vendors demonstrate and show you how the products work with little interruption. That would be appreciated. Crafter’s Companion has their own website in the US and I order from them because I don’t want whole kits. I love their glue.

Yah, I agree with you all. I did not watch very much of it when I saw all the time slots Anna got. I also had a hard time watching Sara when Helen was the host. Helen kept talking over her and all I heard was two people talking at the same time the WHOLE hour. Was not a good experience. Sara didn’t seem as up as she normally is and I hope she lets them have it for that. She always seems to care about her customers and normally that comes across. This time there was just something off. I respect Sara so much for what she has done with her company in such a short time. She will do what she thinks is best and I would think if HSN and Anna are not treating her well, out they go! She can probably do better without them.

In my opinion Anna Griffin has been extremely rude today as always. She throws jabs at Sara. I am surprised that HSN allows her to be so rude. It is as if Anna is HSN’s spoiled little child. She behaves as if she is jealous of Sara. I realize there are those who are dedicated to Anna but she has a nasty attitude and personality. Maybe that is all she knows. There is no reason for Anna to behave in such a child like manner. I applaud Sara for being a humble,

Once again, some of the hosts don’t let the presenters talk. Helen Keaney just overtalked the We R Memory Keepers presenter and the presenter could hardly get a word in. How rude!
