Inspiration for Stary Night Bird Jewelry Set

Suggested by gasaii. Also inspired by the song “Skinny Love” by Bon Iver

Symbols:

The navy blue color/glitter: does it remind you of the stars? Well, the idea was to make it seem as if you where looking under the night sky and making a wish to the biggest star you see. Which was the 4 silver glitter pieces that look like an eye :)

The Rose: of course represents love, it’s shaped like a stencil to look like a constellation.

The Tear: not necessarily meaning pain, but a mix of emotions both good and bad.

The Bell: is the beginning and end of love

The Bird: represents hope.

How Neat is Your Craft Area?

Ya’ll know that saying that crafters are never tidy, while I think that applies to the picture. I use to move room to room and corner to corner around my house because I never had  enough space. It wasn’t until I got this table that I was able to find "the craft area" with enough space for me to get by. Although I’m not sure how I’m going to get bye when I officially start using a sewing machine :/

How I Make Flocking Powder

I always remember seeing this at Micheal’s but never knowing what I would do with it if I bought it. It wasn’t until I saw a tutorial on YouTube where it was used to make a fuzzy animal charm, that I saw the use for it. While it isn’t expensive to buy especially if you have coupons, an idea came to me on making my own, since all the craft stores I go to are a far away. Okay, so lets start.

What you need:

• Scissors


• Container or zip lock bag


• Chenille Stems (Craft Pipe Cleaners)

Step 1: Cut the the edges of the furry part of the pipe cleaner





Step 2: It can get messy so place it into your bag or container after your done cutting the first stem



Step 3: Repeat until you get the amount you want.

Step 4: Is to have fun with it, you can use it for your nails, special occasion cards and even polymer clay or anything you can think of.

Note: There are easier methods of doing this like using yarn, stain fabric or ribbon  but I had the pipe cleaners sitting in my room for a year and decided it was time to do something with it.

Is 3 Weeks Still to Late?

Hi everyone, about 3 weeks a go the cookie necklace that I made was chosen as a one of the favorite submissions to a group called Semi-Sweeties. XD I just found that out, so I thought it would be a interesting to share, because it made my day. Here is what my submission looks like…



I got quite a few comments on how realistic it looks. One person even calling me crazy, because I had told them I used real milk in a shot glass, to get the picture. I don’t know I thought it was a good idea :D. What do you think?

Anyway, there are also some other awesome picks which you can look at here.

Please let me know your thoughts, through a blog reply or comment on the blog. Thanks <3
