The Fairy tube I use in this
tutorial, I bought at BJ Heaven site. She gave me the
permission to use these tubes in my tutorials. Do you like them
and want them? You can buy on her site, they're really
cheap. You can get them for less than 5 dollar for a hole set of
tubes.
 Even though I did buy these tubes, the
copyrights remain with BJ and you cannot share, sell or
distribute the Fairy or the Ornament I made using the
tube.
