Thoughts and creations from someone who is still very much under construction and in process on this road called life. "For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them." ~Ephesians 2:9-11

Homemade Christmas Gift
So I'm pretty excited about one of the gifts I get to give my sweet niece this Christmas. And it just so happens to be a homemade gift! Here it is - I can't wait to see her put this on and dance around in it!!

There is a gold glittery skirt underneath and then I took an elastic band, sewed it together to make a waistband. Next I cut strips of tulle (light pink and hot pink) and tied them onto the elastic waistband. Then I cut strips of ribbons and tied them on. Lastly, I got a big gerber daisy and cut the stem off and safety pinned it on.
I'll add a picture of Anna modeling this after Christmas.

Wolfpack Red
So, I decided after 3 years of being at NC State, I should probably own a RED necklace/earring set. Here is what I recently made - it's simple and plain, but that is for the most part what I enjoy. I've already been putting it to good use!

WHAT'S NEXT...I'd love to make something similar to this. I actually took a picture of this necklace when one of my friends showed up to a banquet wearing it. I really like it and would love to figure out how to make a similar one. I'll let you know if I figure that out...

Ribbons...
It's been a few months and I am excited to finally have some free time to work on creating some new jewelry pieces. I had some ribbon left over and decided to try to be creative with it to make necklaces. Here is what I came up with:



This one is a dark purple - I don't think the color shows up so great in the picture.
