Advanced Crocheting?! I think not!

Mandy on Mandipity did an entire series on how to crochet. I tried, and failed most. She did post this one though, about how to make a flower. I tried. It came out mediocre. You could tell what it was, but it was nothing to write home about. I also crocheted a basic circle. Same result. So now I had these two mediocre crocheted things with NOTHING to do with. So, I made a bracelet/corsage thingie.

I glued the circle on top of the flower, then glued a crystal button on top.

Simple elastic (used to make skirts and what not) used to make the wrist band

Whala!

Nothing Says Class Like Pearls

The other day out of impulse I bought a strand of pearl beads. I have no idea bc I've never even liked pearls but for some reason I just wanted a bracelet. Then I WAS FEATURED (YAYYYYYYY) on Hoo's Got Talent. I was looking through her blog post at her other featurees and saw this: Ribbon Necklace and Bracelet

I decided it was adorable and went that route with my pearls.

I only did the bracelet like the picture because with the smaller beads I used it was a real pain in the you know what to get every ribbon curl to be the same size. Plus I didn't have the right needle. Therefore, I kept the necklace simple. 

I wore the bracelet, the necklace, a purple shirt, and this purple headband. I looked very classy! HAHA.
