A few months ago I found a pair of old earrings in a junk shop for $2. The peacock blue crystals are so pretty. I took the earrings off the backs and made a beaded hairpiece out of one of them. This is the first time I've ever made this particular style. Usually I do either round or oval shape. I was pleased with how it came out.
Rainbow beads in a mini bottle. I had to use a head pin to make them stack evenly, and put the head pin into the cork bottom.
Another rock with a paint dot tree.
And a triple moon rock.
Fall tree
And a heart. I also made a paisley but it didn't come out that good.
I found the pattern online somewhere and it made me laugh so I made it into a card to send to Axe.
And speaking of cards, my bff Marsha's birthday was this month so I did a beach themed card using an old fashioned linen postcard reproduction with a poem about walking by the seashore. I added shells, beach glass and some pearl beads to it.

Finally, this was another pattern from the internet so I did it into a book mark. I changed the black R and diamonds to the house colour of copper. Then I stitched it to some stiff felt so that it keeps the shape and hides the stitches.
