: Clarissa
Tutorial : ClarissaLevel : Beginner to Intermediate Clarissa is a fictional character and the protagonist of the Mortal Instruments series by Cassandra Clare. Equipments- Czech twin seed beads- Czech fired polished round 4mm- 11/0 seed beads- Clasp & Jump rings- Beading needle size 12 (or 10, I can't remember. lol)- SoNo or Nymo or fireline or your favorite thread. I made this bracelet using the free twin beads, sent to Thailand directly from Czech Republic. EDIT: The free campaign is over now. With bead stitch, I prefer SoNo over Nymo. I got this beautiful clasp from Valerie. Cut the thread around 100 cm. Pass your needle to the first 11/0 seed bead to form a ring. Add one 11/0 seed bead, one 4mm fire polished, and one 11/0 seed bead. Repeat step 3 around the ring. We will continue with another layer. String one twin bead, one 11/0 seed bead, one twin bead, one 11/0 seed bead and one twin bead. Add one 11/0 seed bead (red arrow). Sew to the next twin bead. Repeat step 8 and 9.
How to Make a Paper Orchid
My favorite ways to use this paper orchid are on top of a gift and to clip into your hair for a tropical event. But I am guessing that you all have at least another dozen great ideas for using this ever blooming bit of bliss. Maybe napkin rings or added to a tropical centerpiece?

Colleen Jordan’s Magical Wearable Planters Boys With Banjos
Feb 17th Url: Recently, I divulged my obsession/New Years goal of making terrariums out of found objects and jewelery containing petite plants. While searching Etsy, I stumbled upon A Wearable Planter — the shop of artist Colleen Jordan that features, as the tagline says, “jewelry for green thumbs.” The Atlanta-stationed designer creates the tiny planters out of 3D acrylic plastic using modeling software, and forms them into darling vases for your neck, ears, bicycle, and lapel.

there was still no power. Another cold front is moving through and it's now a balmy 23 degrees outside. I sometimes wonder if the rest of these United States has any idea how big of a disaster this is.
