DIY
I found these large vintage rhinestone earrings on Ebay for under $5, but I'm 100% sure my local thrift shops have a nice little collection and yours would too. I bet you could also find some in your Grandma's jewelry box, if she'll part with them! Since they're clip-ons, and clip-ons never seem to say clipped on to my little lobes, I thought I'd upcycle them in a number of ways to show you just how versatile they are as well as adding that extra something to brighten up a plain object, giving it a really unique vintage flair. * Beading Pliers * Wire cutters * Hot glue gun First things first... let's remove the earring backs. * Using your pliers, bend the clip on metal piece up, and using your wire cutters, snip them off at the base.

Pearl Stud Collar
Today’s DIY is a little different than usual, as I’m collaborating with Kiley and Caitlin . They are each styling their own pearl collar tops today on their blogs. This certainly isn’t the first (or last) collar DIY that you’ll see, but I love this project because (if you ask me,) the pearl studs I used were pretty awesome. As a crafts nerd, I geek out a little when I find a new supply I love, and these fit the bill.

Thank you for teaching us about love, and patience, and sacrifice. Thank you for being a constant example of our Heavenly Father, and gently guiding us through all of life's ups and downs.

DIY Braided Bead Bracelet
It’s been awhile since our last bracelet DIY . I don’t know about you, but our wrists have been begging for another colorful addition for months now. So after playing with some materials that were already on hand, we’ve created a tutorial for a braided bead bracelet, which is a not so distant cousin of the hex nut and wrap bracelet .I was debating over a couple of Re-Styles this week, but because of a few parties, the glitter heels won out in the end. Welcome everyone to my Project Re-Style Monday. I have only 5 more Re-Styles left to reach the the one year mark. I can hardly believe that a whole year has passed.
