So I was looking through my vintage craft book collection and ran across a 1970 Pack O’ Fun magazine. This magazine specializes in children’s crafts and while I have no children at home, I’m always happy to try and take a good idea and run with it. They had instructions on how to take a simple popsicle stick and turn it into a bracelet . Well, I’m certainly on board for that. The thought of being able to make wood pliable put all kinds of ideas in my head. But we’ll start with the project at hand which happened to be bracelets.

Last week Carly at Chic Steals posted her late summer Objects of Desire. I loved this from ASOS. Normally I wouldn’t DIY a necklace that could be purchased for less than $20, but I already had all of the materials and it only took a few minutes.
