Last week's crafts

Two out of the three crafts I did last week got the reject vote from the judge in my home.  I like 2 of the 3 and am playing with the one I don't care for to make it something that I do like.  Here are pics of the 3 crafts and I'll let you be the judge.

 Ribbon Ring

 

 Fabric Coasters (the mod podge on them in this picture is still drying)

 

 Twine-wrapped frame

Go ahead, leave honest comments, I can take it, I promise :)

Next project

When I first saw these, I knew I had to make them.  I've got to check the basement to see if I have some elastic cording, but if I don't you know I'll be picking some up! I'm picturing making them for younger girls.  I'm thinking in pinks too.  And, you know these cute little buttons could be attached to felt instead of cloth, the cloth can be cut into a flower shape, instead of attaching them to a ring, put them on a hairbow or a headband, embellish a bag...oh goodness, the possibilities are endless!  Thank you Linda for your wonderful idea and tutorial!

 

Lisa Leonard Giveaway!

I've admired Lisa Leonard Designs for quite some time now.  She's got some fantastic jewelry and wonderful ideas.  I like the simplicity of the stamped metal, yet the touch of chic by adding on the occasional charm.  Lisa does custom work too, so you can pick sayings, names, whatever to go on your necklace. 

One of her latest is a give away

over at the Peated Poppy.  Go check it out and maybe you'll win a great new necklace...be sure to let me know if you do! :)
