I don't think I've posted many of my crafts here on my blog or at least not for a while. So I thought I would share some of the crafts I've done and give you instructions on how you can do them too.
I love making Dream Catchers and did you know you can make them to fit any holiday? I made the the one above for Halloween and it was easy. I just used black and white feathers, black suede and a small skull and RIP button easily found at any crafts store. You can find the full instructions on how to make your own Dream Catcher in my article here.
A while back I showed you some of the jewelry beading kits to get you started making your own jewelry. So after doing a few of those I bought some semi precious stones and other things I needed to make a necklace and made this one.
Using ribbon to make a pretty necklace is just as easy. I have the full instructions on how to make this necklace in this article I wrote here.
I made these earrings back in 2010 and still have them and love them. I made them using Japanese beads and sterling silver ear threads and sterling silver spacer. They were incredibly easy to make. I bought the ear thread chain separately and just attached spacer beads and a head pin to the Japanese bead and attached it to the ear thread.
Have you done any crafts lately?
I wish. I seem to spend all my time writing or doing promo type stuff :)
ReplyDeleteLove the earrings and the dreamcatcher.
I am not crafty at all. In fact, I am a klutz when attempting to be crafty :)
ReplyDeleteUnless you want something that looks like it was done by a 2 year old, nope not crafty lol
ReplyDeleteYou sure keep busy!
ReplyDeleteEarnings are fun to make. I like the way yours came out.
ReplyDeleteHa, not at all. But I clean up after the Mrs. and our little daughter after they create. I count that as my contribution.

Oh how pretty! I made a pair of earrings lately but that's about it. I did just buy some very pretty beads so hopefully they'll turn into something soon. Love those earrings!
ReplyDeleteThose are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI tend to start projects...not necessarily finish them, lol. Most of the time they involve crocheting but since I got a knitting book to review, I have tried to make a scarf...it is pretty curly at the edges but my hubby says he'll wear it anyway, lol.
