Tell Your Friends: Social Market for a Mirrix 2016
Do you like to blog? Are you interested in social media? Do you want a Mirrix Loom or a Spencer Power Treadle? Would you be willing to do the former in exchange for the latter? Or maybe you have a friend who would?
Time is running out to apply for Social Market for a Mirrix 2016!
Haven’t heard of this program? Since 2010 we have been giving looms and supplies to people in exchange for blog and social media posts about their experiences with the loom.
Never woven before? That’s great! Expert? That’s fine! We are interested in applications from artists/crafters of every level.
