Tried it out Thursday- braided wrap bracelet
I made another wrap bracelet! This one is similar to this one at Henry Happened. Instead of two pieces of cord, I used three and the chain. I just held the chain with one of my pieces of cord as if it were one strand and braided. I put some coiled cord ends on each end and attached a clasp. I used about three feet of cord. You can see my beaded wrap cord bracelet HERE. Thanks for stopping by! I'll be linking up here:

Eye on Fashion: Nutcase ring DIY
a nutcase that fits my finger found in the garagego to your hardware store and try some nutcases as a ring until you find the one that fits(and yes people will look at you with a funny face thinking you're crazy) un semplice bullone da cui partire come anellopotete trovarne uno simile in ferramenta,provatene qualcuno fino a trovarne uno che vi va come anello (non fate caso a chi vi guarda con una faccia strana per quello che state facendo) i've added some mirrors over the surfacethen i've covered half of the thick border with big glitters,this way i'm able to wear the ring in two ways:with the "naked" surface or showing glitters ho aggiunto degli specchietti sulla superficie e poi decorato con dei glitter metà della superficie laterale in modo da poter scegliere se indossarlo mostrando la superficie "nuda" o quella con i glitter Since i really liked Maison Martin Margiela hardware jewelry i decided to make my own version of it.

Button Statment Rings | - StumbleUpon
It’s September and that means it’s time to add another statement piece to your collection…. obviously! I heart almost every piece Nicole Richie designs for House Of Harlow 1960, especially her oversized rings. As amazing as these rings are they’re also an easy DIY. My friend Jenni, from I Spy DIY, did a project a few months back where she transformed buttons into earrings. #SuperFab This got me thing…let’s transform buttons into statement rings! Buttons, buttons everywhere!! Materials: Buttons, Clippers, Glue, Rings With Flat Tops (available at the jewelry supply store) Use your clippers to remove the shank from the back of the button. Once you’ve made the back of the button flat, use an ample amount of glue to secure the ring to the back of the button. Here’s another hint: If you can’t find a flat ring base, Ring Pops are a fun alternative. Once the base has dried, glue on the button. I now thing I have enough new statement rings to get me through the month.

M.A.I.L. - Maille Artisans International League - Jens Pind Linkage 3 and variants - Definitions, differences and distinguishing characteristics - Submitted by Titus
This article is about a magnificent spiral weave called Jens Pind Linkage (JPL) and its variants. In the following chapters I will explain how regular JPL is constructed, and how the variants are related to the original chain. Also, I will introduce a relatively simple method to distinguish between different JPL variants. You don't necessarily have to be familiar with the weave(s), but knowing the basics helps a lot. At least a good thing to do before reading further is to take a look at some tutorials about JPL and perhaps make a small length of the chain. Then, on to the topic: JPL can be approached from different angles. However, there is a different approach by thinking that instead of spiraling rings, the chain is made of stacked rings (in a sort of Persian way). From now on, let's call the blue stack (1. 4. 7. ...) with the letter A. Now, what defines JPL as JPL, is the orientation of these stacks. Yes, the very first six rings are the most important rings when you are making JPL.

Fabric flower brooch
Back during the summer when I got interested in fabric and all those great flowers everyone was making, I tried my hand at a couple. I finally got around to deciding how I might use these flowers and added the pin backs this weekend so it could be a brooch. I made this one from the following you tube video: I cut my circles out with a scalloped Nestabilities scalloped circle die. I think it looks great on this jacket. I'll be linking up to Get Your Craft On and other great parties.
