I made one of these for my sister last Christmas and thought they would be fun to try different colors and textures with.
They are magnetic menu boards. On the strips of paper in the " favs" folder, you write your most used/ favorite meals. Then you place them under the magnet designating which day you will have that meal. There is a sticky note pad under the flower that you can write down grocery needs for your meals that week.   $ 20

Oh my...this one was interesting to make. Each chain is slightly shorter than the first, making it a cascading look. The layers are comprised of multiple chain elements as well as large white beads and small black beads. My favorite part is the flower focal.  $30

Sold

I wrapped these hoops with wine colored bicones and crystal bicones. Classy and fun. $5

These are fun dangle earrings. I used blue and green bicones with small silver beads. They sort of remind me of the Eifel tower. $5

This is also one of my favorites. I love the size of the beads...the fanciful butterfly focal...the dark teal and copper colors. Fun, Fun, Fun! $ 10

Gifts For Teachers

We have a tradition of making gifts for the kids teachers at the end of each year. The girls decided to make bracelets this year. These are all made with seed beads and some with larger glass beads. They are strung on eye pins and hooked together with a lobster clasp. They can be easily duplicated in any color.

$5-$10

( depending on beads)

This is one of my favorites! It is a two strand necklace made up of large green twist beads, medium round pink crystals and small pink bicones. With the silver metal round connectors there is a fun combination of textures. A delicate silver chain connects the beads to a silver lobster clasp.

This was a tricky one to make. I strung round pink crystals in silver wire and then wraped the wire around a silver jump ring. Then I strung long purple tube beads on silver eye pins and connected them all together. It gave me something to do after the kids went to bed.

Okay....so after a long and busy summer, I have finally gotten back on the horse. I sat down and made a couple of new necklaces. Hopefully with kids back in school, I can find more time to make fun things. Hope you like them!
