brass blooms

Being lazy today... lunch and a matinee with the hubby makes for a fabulous Friday! I did manage to do something productive--I made these earrings to match my brass watch necklace I got when I broke my wrist.

CAPitalism

I've been slaving away scrubbing, drying, and drilling bottle caps. I made 45 pairs of earrings this weekend, with more on the way!

signed, sealed, delivered

My newest pendant, made from a vintage Czechoslovakian stamp (front) and the inside of a security envelope (back).

just what the doctor ordered

I made these fun, heart-shaped earrings out a Diet Dr. Pepper can. (I used the bottle lid to show size.)

when the spirit moves you

At the last minute, I decided to make some earrings to match this necklace. You have to love those spur-of-the-moment crafts, well, except for those 9:00-the-night-before-sewing-projects anyway.

topographical treasures

Want to remember a favorite hike? Memorialize the map in a necklace. Northwest of the potties above the heavy dark line is one of my favorite places along the Blue Ridge Parkway.

christmas in april

Spring gets the creative juices flowing. This necklace is made from a darling Christmas card owllistration. :)

the domino effect

The last bit of craftiness before school and work begin. I made this necklace out of a wooden domino, which came from a set I purchased at the thrift store. This is the ultimate repurposed, reused, recycled piece of jewelry.
