My Other Craft...

Some of you know that card-making is a primary, yet not a sole hobby of mine. One of my other passions is making jewelry. I've gotten away from it over the past few months with this paper-crafting spree I've been on, but the itch is coming back. Probably due to the holiday season.

I can whip up a pair of cute earrings in ten minutes, so they make quick, easy gifts. Add a necklace and tack on another 20 minutes or so...depending on how ornate it is. This necklace took longer than 20 minutes to make because of all the different beads and the length, but I love the end result. I actually made this a while ago for one of my sisters. I never sent it (shame on me) so I thought I would share before shipping it off this year! I'm planning to make some more jewelry in the very near future for Christmas gifts...so stay tuned! Hopefully by then I'll have a better method of photographing my creations :] ...and possibly some cute, handmade boxes to store them in!
