Crochet Necklace Done.


I followed the instructions on the Crochet Necklace Video I shared a couple of posts back. I used 24 gauge silver colored wire and some shell and glass beads. It took me about a half hour to make while I watched TV. If you try this project and your crochet stitches don't look perfect, don't worry! It will all look fine after you braid the three strands.

Beaded Crochet Necklace

I have made this necklace and it is easy and stunning! I actually made it without knowing about this how-to video first, but the how-to video is so great I had to share.

Stuff to do with Paper

I have way more paper than I ever plan to use... until now! I found a wonderful paper art site called Folding Trees. Folding trees is a site where you can find inspiration and instructions on some of the most creative paper crafts I have seen in a while. Some of the newest ideas they have are a Valentine's bunting (banner) project from Maya*Made, valentines candy bar wrapper project from Schlosser Designs and free printable class valentines from Bunny Cakes. If you need inspiration or just a good excuse to procrastinate, make sure to visit Folding Trees. I plan on adding this one to my blogroll and Google reader!
