Crafty fun.

A pretty purple bracelet with a charm. All the beads used are recycled from old jewelery.

A pretty necklace, again all beads used are recycled! My Mom is bringing me more jewelery to recycle. She's also bringing me lots of fabric next week when she comes for Thanksgiving!

I love hearts! Here's a really cute pair of earrings! These were super easy to make! :)


My favorite set so far! I love the fish beads...Turned out really cute I think. It was so easy to make...Recycling jewelry is a lot of fun!

Get Crafty!

There are 38 days until Christmas!

Pop can tabs...

I made this pop can tab choker with ribbon, pop can tabs, beads and a heart charm. My Mom had gotten a pop can tab bracelet in California when she visited my brother. She figured out how to make bracelets, I however could not get it! I watched her and my niece make bracelets and still couldn't figured it out...Then I did figure it out and created this choker. The beads and charm complete the look. I think it turned out really cute!! :)

Crafty dreams...

Had a dream that I made simple throw pillows for my nieces for Christmas...So I printed out simple directions to sew throw pillows. :)

I watched the movie Julie/Julia was inspired to try new crafty things like sewing! I will be posting my pillow making adventure! :)

Time to get crafty!!

I had a lot of beaded bracelets my Mom had made several years back. Some very cool beads she has! I hadn't really worn them that often, so instead of giving them away I recycled them into new pieces! I wasn't really digging the pop can tab bracelets. I'm looking for different ways to craft with them.

I know some look long, they could be anklets. I have a small wrist, but all can be adjusted to fit most every one. I can't wait to get some more supplies!


Some earrings too! Super easy to make and fun too! The gold pair with the wood beads was from the kit I had picked up at Walmart. That was the last pair out of eight!!



Thinking that I shall keep looking for crafty things to make! Happy crafting!!

Pop can tabs...

My mom got the cutest bracelet in California made out of pop can tabs...It's really cute!!

I am collecting pop can tabs to make those bracelets and other really cool stuff! I can't wait to get started, guess what this years Christmas gifts will be! :)

Beaded bracelet and earrings

I made these for my Mom for her birthday.

Need tools...

I thought my hubby would have the tools I needed to make the earrings I got...However, all I could find was a small wire cutter...I need a round nose pliers and a needle nose pliers. I'm gonna have to get a kit this weekend if possible!!

Maybe I can get a new birthday stamp too!
