…compilation of tutorials
I presented a pop tab bracelet already, now I’ve found more things made from pop tabs: a top for the evening, another pop tab bracelet and a purse made from interwoven pop tabs and a tote made from crochet joined pop tabs.
I’m speechless ;-)

Some time ago I made a Herringbone or Ndebele necklace.
I find it beautiful, it is wonderfully sleeky and simply elegant.
And I found the bead weaving itself downright relaxing.
To make sure that the necklace doesn’t look boring I simply made a little Peyote bead like for my paper beads bracelet, pulled it over the necklace and worked little bead fringes on the bead like for the pages 9 & 10 of my artist book – looots ;-)
Well, I like it ;-)

If you have necklaces you can always do with something to hang them up, as e.g. the mini dress-form jewelry stand.
That’s something you can use the wonderful bust for.
But it is also something very special if you want to sell jewelry.
Incidentally I think that you can craft it a little smaller if you need a gift wrap or sales wrapping for your necklace.
If the bust is made as greeting card the necklace can directly be send with it!?
If you make such a bust I’d really appreciate a comment with a link (as I’m glad about every comment ;-))

I wanted to present the gummy bear bracelet for a long time already and now I managed to do it ;-)
However I didn’t make it yet because I still want to lose weight and I’m afraid that they could ‘disappear’ before I can varnish them ;-))
But it works similarly to the gummi candy lamp that I haven’t made yet for the same reason ;-))

Well, fall is coming.
The leaves look still beautiful outside, but soon they will be gone and then you can fall back on your own – if you like even evergreen – leaves.
There’s something to be said for that ;-))
By the way I imagine them also nice as pin.
Made e.g. with some stash yarn matching your purse.

I found the jewelry with the self-made turquoise already a long time ago and was thrilled!
Once I tried myself making my own turquoises from Fimo but it didn’t quite work.
Somewhen I will try it again… ;-)

When I saw the little beaded wooden spools I directly wanted to go for making them myself!
Luckily I didn’t have any wooden spools at home at the moment ;-))
But you can easily ‘weave’ the little Peyote beads from my paper beads bracelet (without any wooden spools ;-)) around the wooden spools.

Must be quite heavy, such a rock key chain, mustn’t it?
It mustn’t! ;-))
It is fake stone and made from foam and spraypainted ;-)
I don’t quite understand how it works and why it isn’t dented, but at the moment I can’t make it because I still need my mattress at night ;-))
And by the way it should be possible to make them from paper maché, shouldn’t it?
And wearing it around your neck should look, great, too ;-)

I find those beads soo beautiful and can easily imagine them in other colour combinations!
One day…
Sigh.
;-)
Recently we wrapped recycled gift tags, now washers.
And why not, most of us have enough stash yarn at any rate it looks cute ;-)
