Upcycled Beads

My aunt gave me this old shirt of hers. I immediately knew I was going to reuse the beads that adorn it. There is still so much beads sewn on but I got tired of removing them.

 
These make great little bead caps.

These are prefect for attaching cabochons. I was been able to make this necklace with them.

So far I've also made a pair of dangles, and a pair of studs. I have enough beads to make one more pair of earrings. I love the southwestern boho feel they have. You can find them in my shop.

Before and After Jewelry Display/Storage

I started cleaning out my closet today and am pretty happy so far with the progress. My walk in closet is also my current crafting area, mostly because It keeps the mess contained and hidden. It's my messy little secret, also I can just close the doors and not worry about the little one getting into my stuff. I've organized the clothes and shoes but still have many boxes to sort through. I also organized part of my crafting area. Here is the before and after of bought and handmade jewelry collection. It's kinda make shift and the storage/displays are things I've acquired over the years.

Before


Just a big embarrassing mess.


After

That's a lot better.


I bought these frames 3 years ago from Target to use as wedding favors but went another route. My mother ended up using most of them for her wedding last year. These are some of the left overs.




I forget where I got these displays from. See the jewelry here.



A tarnished metal tray that I plan on painting and later using in the main bathroom.



Candle stick holder to temporarily hold some bracelets.



I bought this cork board from Wal-Mart yesterday and wrapped it with a cute fabric I had laying around from Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft. Then I stuck some push pins and wrapped wire around them to hang everything. Simple, quick, temporary, solution.

Today's Nap Time Projects

So today while my son took his mid afternoon nap I was able to make two pairs of earrings, take pics of them, and add one to my etsy. Now I just have to add the other.




Last night I was able to upload this pretty cool Gothic set and make and upload these earrings that are perfect for spring and summer.

Coming Soon!

I have developed a bad habit of starting projects and not finishing. In these cases I have some sort of excuse, I have ran out of certain supplies. Anyway, check out what I'm working on. 
I know... a lot of red and black.
