I was a busy girl this weekend...

this.makes.me.happy

Last week, I was having one of those slow.... "I can't wait until Friday" kind of week.  My boyfriend was going out of town, I had tons to do at the shop, the new puppy needed tons of attention etc etc... I went to check my mail and this came...

This totally made my day! Thanks Elyse...As you may know, Elyse was our TOMs winner last month and she handmade this super adorable, creative, and loving card :) I never expected this! I have it hanging up in my shop because it makes me smile ;)

Just wanted to share.

seed.beads.galore

I've been in the crafty mood lately...obvi. As I was playing around in my work room I came across this basket full of seed beads! My mind started rolling on all the possibilities... and the project began. I sort of just made it up as I went along :) If your interested in DIY (doing it yourself), here are a few things you will need:

1. seed beads (any colors you want)

2. a small metal bar, that I attached to small jump rings to (I actually used an earring post for making earrings and just curled up the little loops on each end to hold the jump rings)

3. regular ole' clear fishing line

4. small jewelry making tools 

5. chain and/or leather to make the "necklace" part

and the fun began...

I ran out of chain so I used leather (below) to finish...
