For the longest time, I waited to buy a musical pendant from a store, until I realized (a few days ago) that I could make it myself! I used some soft wire I had lying around (clueless about its properties), shaped it with pliers and then flattened it with a hammer. Hooked it to an old chain with a jump ring and have been wearing it several days in a row. So pleased!! :)

(Re)Fresh Start
I've decided to restart this blog after a long hiatus. I hope to increase my crafting activities this year on...it's been a while. To kick things off, here are some photos of flowers I made using a tutorial from martha stewart's website: ultrasuede petals. I don't have any ultrasuede, so I've recycled one of those cloth-like bags that some shops use.


The 5-petal flowers will be left as individual pieces; the 4-petal ones will be stacked like in the photo above. I'm undecided on embellishments because they are cute even without them.
