Craft Day!

Hey All,

Last week, no I can offically say the week before last I went over to a friend's house for a craft day.  She pulled out her beads and was showing me how to make earrings.  Let me tell you it's not as easy as it looks!  Trying to make a little loop looks easy enough when someone else is doing it.  Yeah Right!  Oh and lets not forget all those little gadgets you have to use I kept picking up the wrong ones to use.  I told her I need to mark them to tell them apart.  The fun part was deciding which beads to use and if you wanted to use wires or hoops.

Here is a pair for the princess.  I hope they won't be too heavy in her ears.  She likes long and dangling and they are just that. 
This pair is going to one of the nieces.  I thought mixing up and putting a little of this color and that color so she could wear them with many outfits.
Another pair for the princess.  I know she will like these with those little mirrors... sparkle. 
This is for another niece.  A pair of blue to go either with jeans or a dress.
And this pair for the teen niece.  I love these!  You can either wear them all dressed up or with a pair of jeans.  I want to make more of these in different colors. 









I had a lot of fun making these with Lynette's help.  I think we talked more than we did anything else.  The time flew by and it seemed like we had just started and almost 4 hours had went by.  I'm going to go over this week and we are going to make some more.  I can't wait!  I can already tell this is going to be another addicting craft and I'm going to have to stock up on some supplies. 

Thank You Lynette for a great crafting day!

Take Care :)

PS... I linked this up with Have A Handmade Christmas over on Proverbs 31 Living.  Abbi did this last year and it was a lot of fun and I got a lot of great ideas from what everyone had posted.
