Default Why is pearl ex so expensive? I need michaels coupons!

I went in to get pearl ex to play with after readying great ideas from this website and couldn't believe how spendy those gems are. I will just have to wait.
And a brayer was $11.00, goodness it can't be that much to make, LOL.

Pearl Ex is an extremely fine shimmery powder, the quality is top notch. I can't speak for Michael's prices. Stampin Up (totally biased, I know) sells Pearl Ex in assortments of 6 for 11.50. Granted, the containers are smaller, but a little Pearl Ex goes a LONG way. Maybe that will jive better with your budget.

The brayer is cheaper at Michael's than with SU, though...

Get yours with a Mike's coupon. I bought mine years ago with a coupon and think I paid about $12 for 12 colors.

I say help your local demo on the pearl-ex purchase... especially since the price is about the same. And SU has sweet little jars that are very nice, and great color combos.

.... as far as the brayer... go to Micheals.
