Craft #9: I sewed buttons today!

Okay, so I realize this is a little late, but I forgot to post before going downtown tonight. Sorry! Also, no pictures yet because I'm very slightly too intoxicated to bother with the camera. But. Today I got my package from a craft swap I participated in through craftster.com. The package contained a wrap skirt that I had to sew the buttons on my self to make fit. And I sewed the hell out of those buttons. So anyway, I'll post that picture tomorrow probably. Have a lovely night!

Craft #8: turtle earrings

Not too much to say tonight...I just got back into town after another day of driving, so I really need to go get some food in me. These are turtle earrings! Enjoy!

Craft #7: bird necklace



Happy one week of crafting! Pretty simple craft tonight - just took a gunmetal chain, worked a few Swarovskis in, and adorned it with a bird charm I've had lying around. This project is going to be an excellent stash buster, if nothing else!

Craft #6: ghost earrings

I need to stop taking pictures in my basement...the lighting here is terrible. Anyway, I've had these ghost beads laying around since the summer, but haven't been able to figure out what to do with them. Well, the pressure of today's craft got my creative juices flowing and here it is! (Have I mentioned Halloween is my favorite holiday?)

Craft #5: peace sign earrings


Pretty simple craft today. I drove home from school today, so I've been in the car for most of the day and am pretty much wiped. As for the picture itself, I know the flash sucks for these types of things, but this was the picture that got closest to the actual color of the earrings. The peace signs are some beads I picked up at the awesome bead store in Vestal (MAT's Beads). Also, I'm about to post yesterday's craft pictures, so go back and take a look! (You won't regret it, I promise)

Craft #4: bracelet for a friend


No picture today (yet!). My craft today was to make a bracelet as a graduation present for a friend. Since said friend isn't getting the present until tomorrow, I don't want to post a picture yet in the off chance that she reads this. However, I will post a picture tomorrow after she gets it!


EDIT:


Here it is! I made this bracelet for a good friend of mine for graduation. It's based on a bracelet I designed for myself to wear for my brother's Bar Mitzvah (I'll post a picture of that later, perhaps). All the beads are Swarovski crystals, so it sparkles in any light.

Craft #3: sushi roe necklace




Story: This is just one of a few charms I made today, but this is the only one that made it into a finished project so far. We'll see what the fates hold for the other ones!

By the way, many of the projects you see here will eventually make it up to my Etsy page. Check back periodically for new additions!
