This week's CRAFT Video Podcast features Cathy Callahan who shows you how to create vintage straw flowers from a loom. Cathy draws her inspiration from vintage crafts and I love how she brings these vintage straw flowers back to life with her own special touch. You can catch up with Cathy and get more vintage inspiration from her blog.

I bought one of her kits earlier this year and love the way she packages the vintage looms and straw. Visit her Etsy store to pick up a kit or other vintage supplies or crafty goods she makes.

Here's Cathy recently at Maker Faire Bay Area where she demoed how to work these vintage looms to make these beautiful flowers. More pictures here in my Flickr photos.
