Amazon Prime Day October 2024: Small Business and Crafty Deals and Steals

Amazon Prime Day 2024 officially starts Tuesday, October 8 and continues through October 9 - but there are already some early access deals! Just like we've done the last EIGHT years, we'll be following the the Silhouette craft and small business deals both on and off Amazon closely!

Amazon provided me a sneak peak of what's going to be an Amazon Prime Day deal and while I am bound to silence until the deals go live, I can tell you - there's a TON of good stuff. In fact more than 200k products will be on sale over the next two days! 

In the meantime, I'm sharing some pointers and things to be on the lookout for and tips on making sure you don't miss a deal.

DIY Wallpaper Peel and Stick: Print at Home with Roland BN-20A

Found another reason to love my Roland BN-20A...DIY Peel and Stick Wallpaper! 

I wouldn't suggest this for large areas, due to how long it takes to print, but for a nook or a smaller area this is the perfect way to print your own wallpaper on removable vinyl. Using the Wallflair adhesive vinyl makes the wallpaper peel and stick so there's no damage to the walls AND it's super easy to apply! 

Silhouette School Craft Room and Home Office Tour

When you do what I do running a craft education business -  creating content, testing products, review products, and providing education on equipment - you tend to have a lot of "stuff."  In my case, stuff is printers, machines, heat presses...just stuff. 

I get questions almost every time I do a Facebook Live about pretty much anything visible in the camera shot. So today I figured I'd take you an office and craft room tour and provide a little behind the scene look at how my dream space came to be. 

Everything is linked so you can grab whatever it is you're wondering about!
