Steampunk Jewelry




 
It's been quite some time since I posted  "something I made!"  I spend a lot of time with the grand kids and don't have the time to pull out my materials to create or else I'm too pooped to craft!!!!
I really love to make jewelry. Here are some necklaces and a bracelet that I completed using old watch parts and charms. I really like the Steampunk look. I think I'll work on some earrings next. Anxious as to how they will turn out!!!

Valentine Shadow Boxes


This is my first post and I'm really excited!!  I'm a newbie when it comes to blogging.

 I thought it would be a good time to start a blog since I wanted to make some Valentine goodies for my family. I started with the shadow boxes, one for my daughter, Julie, and my daughter-in-law Andrea. I love buttons and wanted to use them in my project. It was really easy. Along with the buttons I used scrapbook paper and my Cricut Machine In no time I had a completed project that I knew my girls would like and enjoy.


NEXT   THE GRANDCHILDREN!!!!!



I hope all three were happy to get their cards in the mail. Lucy, Jack, and Amelia are my precious grand kids. What in the world would I do without them????? They keep me busy. I already have Lucy "making" projects. One day I will post some of her creations. Amelia and Jack are too small yet to get into the creating business. Some day........
