9/27 Blast from the past 3

Remember shrinky dinks?  Those plastic sheets you could draw on, cut out, put into the oven to shrink, and then turn into charms?  Well, here's my fun party necklace made out of shrinky dinks!

9/24 Pillow Pouf

I've been wanting one of those round knitted pillow poufs or footrests, but they're so expensive and I felt like it should be easy to make.  So I checked for some patterns on etsy and grabbed my knitting needles.

Knitted Pouf!

being creative everyday

So I've been thinking about doing something like this for a while now, but haven't gotten around to actually doing it.  However, as my life gets busier, I feel the need to make sure I spend at least 30 minutes a day being creative.  Also, I seem to take lots of photos of things I make, but then never DO anything with it.  So here's to the possibility of making something everyday for the next month or so!  :)

my own version

I ordered the Project DIY subscription from M&J Trimming, but I couldn't wait to do this project.  So I went and got my own materials for this bracelet even before I got my first box.  I think it turned out really cute!

another take on the plastic tubing bracelets

9/12 Blast from the Past 2

RTW Japan:

Remember those glitter and water jelly bracelets we used to get as kids.  Well, while we were in Japan I picked up some really cool plastic tubing in some fun colors.  My plan was to make some fun bracelets, and here are the results!  I'm really happy with they way they turned out!  :) 

Etsy site

It has been on a long hiatus, but I have reopened my etsy site, and I will be slowly adding new pieces.  Other than my wooden and clay necklaces, I will have lots of other goodies in there!  Come check out my shop at:
