Bizsugyár A sok magányos fülbevaló és medál után eldöntettem, hogy készítek egy szettet, amely színét és formáját tekintve vidám és különleges. Igyekeztem némi hasonlóságot vinni a fülibe és a medálba, ám nem szerettem volna egyformára hajlítani őket, mert akkor méretüket tekintve már túl sok lett volna a jóból. Így hasonlítanak is meg nem is. A medál elkészítése nem annyira egyszerű, mint amilyennek látszik, az ötlet megszületését követően több prototípust is gyártottam, mire megszületett a tökéletes darab. A füli és a medál együtt is hordható, illetve külön is – amennyiben túl sok együtt-, de szerintem még belefér az együtt kategóriába is.

{DIY} How to make your own Eye Pins - Typical House Cat by mskristiina on April 6, 2012 I’ve been on the hunt for a good source for long eye pins. I’ve heard from a couple of you who aren’t able to find them long enough to wear the rings in my tutorial on anything but your tiny pinky finger. Luckily, I attended a beading class last Saturday with my sister at The Beaded Puma* and learned how to make eye pins myself. Honestly, it is so easy. You will need the regular beading tools: Needle-nose pliersRound-nose pliersWire cuttersWirePaper scrapSome sort of writing utensil First, you need to decide the size you want. Then mark a little further up to mark the circumference of the eye you are making, cut it off at the end. Once you have that done, cut a piece of wire as long as your guide. Next, holding it in your left hand, take your needle-nose pliers in your right hand and bend the top towards you where your dot was on your guide. Next, take your round-nose pliers and hold the tip next to the bent portion of the wire to measure it. Voila! xx ks

Tutorial: Shabby Chic Dangly Earring Display This fun little shabby chic earring stand, made from an altered picture frame, is a great way to hang and display all your beautiful, dangling earrings. I had the idea for this project after we talked about my love affair with dangly earrings and how to display them. I don’t know about you, but I just love seeing them all hanging in a row! :) The next day I made this earring frame, and it was so quick, easy, and inexpensive to put together, I knew I had to share it with you! :) I spent a grand total of $5.34 on this project. Cost: Less than $10 Time: 30 mins Supplies: picture frame, 12′ of picture wire, acrylic paint & brush, staple gun (or nails/tacks, etc) I started out with a black 8×10 picture frame from Walmart, $3. Since the frame wasn’t real wood, I was a little concerned with how it would turn out once I painted it. But as you can see from the above images, this little inexpensive frame did great! Next, I took a piece of wire and laid it across the back of the frame.
How to: Greek Isle Necklace Project N630Designer: Julie Bean The mixing of gold, silver, and copper makes it so this necklace can be worn with everything. Elegant enough for evening yet fresh and breezy enough for daytime, you will love adding this necklace to your collection. Tip: this makes for a 20 inch necklace. If you would like it longer, simply make your bead strands longer (you have plenty of seed beads in the mix to do this). If you wish it to be shorter, cut down your chain lengths before attaching them. Tip: Check package quantities for each component. All designs © Beadaholique Inc.
