Links are affiliate links. Purchasing through these links sends a few cents my way. I know nothing about your purchases. It's the same as buying normally through Amazon, I just receive compensation for advertising their product - as is only right! Most of my affiliate links also benefit my charity of choice - Chimera Arts Maker Space and our jewelry studio there. So, it's a win-win. Help keep our studio alive and me making free videos and content! Thank you so much!!!!!!!! Nancy
