making rings...

this year at our church Christmas brunch, we are handing out favors to the ladies who come.  only, they have to make it themselves, before they can take it home.  :)  using felt from old sweaters, some floss, and awesome pottery buttons by katie, all it takes is a bit of stitching and E6000 glue.


i loved them so much, there may be a small business in my future making these to sell!


there literally are hundreds of options with the different felt, buttons, and floss colors available.

my very own green and oatmeal ring

and of course, i had to have one in the gray family

jewelry fun...

last night mommy got alone time to go make jewelry.  it all turned out quite cute thanks to some great wire twisting and advice from melissa.

i also bought a necklace already made with a lampwork bead--hand-blown by an artist and fit around this vintage key.  too cute.
