My friend Jules likes sparkly things. So it can be easy for
me to make pieces of jewelry for her.
When we went to a craft store over the weekend I already had
in my head something I wanted to make for her. So I figured I would slyly ask
her opinion on beads so I would know what to get.
During our shopping, however, Jules found other beads she
liked. And she decided she wanted a bracelet. (I had a necklace in mind for
her, but I didn’t want to tell her that).
So, this morning ended up being all about Jules as I pulled
out my crafting tools. First I made the bracelet she requested. It didn’t take
much to make a bracelet from the chain of beads she found. She liked it pretty
much the way it was, it just needed to be sized and have a clasp attached to
it. I also had to work on the spacing of each dangling bead.
The necklace was inspired by something Jules found on
Pinterest a while back. The lariat necklace, made by Royal Gold Gifts, is sold
on Etsy. I want to make sure I give full credit to my inspiration. I studied the photo on Pinterest and Etsy and managed to make my own.
I periodically go to Pinterest for craft and handmade jewelry
ideas. You can check out my boards at www.Pinterest.com/AptCraft.
