New Magnetic Micro Threaders

I just realized that Puffin and Co. has new micro needle threaders which will thread most beading needle eyes. This link shows the cute regular magnetic threaders and then the tiny ones below. There are lots of their products on this page, though, in case you want to browse more of what they offer.
