{jewelry}

Sometimes I'm in a super crafty mood.... and to solve this, well, I do crafty things.

....like make jewerly.

These pieces were made from charms that I have been collecting from random places like funky little shops and charms that have been given to me by my lovely friends and family.

Over break I was feeling particularly crafty and I made three necklaces... 

and developed ideas for others that haven't yet been made. 

Supplies, supplies, supplies!!!
Not shown is my Liver of Sulfer station. Liver of Sulfur
is pretty much one of my favorite little known secrets to jewerly making.
It tarnishes silver jewerly (I use it for charm pieces and silver
chains) to give the jewerly a nice patina and then
you just polish to get the desired silverness for each individual piece.
Pretty nifty, huh?

 Not-so-Naughty Nautical:
(actually wearing this one as I type this!)

Milagros Inspired: 

French Inspired (obvs):
the coin is a Repulic of France Franc, very old school

My cupcake stand also doubles as a jewerly-making stand. 

So basically all I want to do for the rest of my life is make jewelry 

and other fun and crafty things. 

Can't I just do that? Please?
