Feather bracelet

My favorite bracelet that I have made so far! You take whatever kind of bracelet material you want (I used yellow leather), wire, and whatever charm you want. find the very middle of the leather and attach the charm to the leather using the wire then you take it and wrap it.

Rings!

 Owl Rings I made for me and my sister. You take whatever charm you want and cut the loop part off the top (you will need pliers or something like that). Then you take an already made ring (you can buy them in packs of ten at Hobby Lobby) and either hot glue the charm on or you can sodur it on (unless you know what you are doing I wouldn't recommend soduring it). Enjoy :)
A charm ring I made out of a scrap piece of necklace chain and a charm piece.

Bracelet :)

Black rope ribbon, covered in light blue ribbon, with black lace roses. :) I used hot clue and some hand stitching to get it all to stay together. In this picture I hadn't put Tge clasps on yet but I used snap clasps.

I Love how it turned out.

Christmas party crafts!

Hershey bar Reindeer! They were so easy and fun to make. Use brown pipe cleaners for the antlers, googly shaky eyes (they come already sticky) some red Pom poms for the noses and some ribbon (whatever color you prefer) for the scarf. To get it to all stay on I used hot glue. :)

Little snowmen and reindeer doughnuts :)
Snowmen- Candy corn noses, and brown M&M's (cut into four pieces) for the eyes.
Reindeer- Red M&M noses, white icing for the eyes and pretzels for the antlers.

My DIY scarf

This is the scarf I made. It has 6 of my favorite quotes. :) all you need is a smooth scarf and a cloth paint pen. Writing on it may be a bit challenging, I used two heavy candles to hold the scarf flat so I could write on it without it moving on me. After you write what you want on it iron it so that when you wash it (hand wash only) the writing doesn't come out. Good luck and enjoy :)
