I was feeling rather craft-deprived so I decided to cross-stitch some donuts while he worked on his bike. A Bear's game later and it was the perfect jumbo charm for a necklace! I stopped at Jo-Ann for findings, sealed the donuts with fabric mod podge annnd thennn...
It's so damn cute, I could eat it!Since I was on a jewelry kick, I had to finish another necklace I started months ago after Andrew's sister and I went to Intergem. If you don't know what that is, I feel sorry for you! I'm kidding. It's this amazing gem show where everything is ridiculously inexpensive. She and I bought A TON OF STUFF yet neither of us has actually made anything with our goodies ;x
I only spent like $30!These beads and bits are mostly from a local shop called beadniks. It's a pretty great store except everything is overpriced and they buy most of their inventory at gem shows like the one we went to. I refused to pay something like $12 per inch for gold chain to finish it off, so while at Jo-Ann I found the perfect faux chain RIBBON!
It's amazing & I love it.Finally something to add to SSS!! Which (evidently) I'm hardly participating in ;(
