With the exceptionally dreary weather and the realization that Christmas is less than 2 weeks away, I am completely stressed out. I have several project ideas in mind, but haven't figured out how to make the leap from the brain to the fingers... for example, I found some neat pineapple shaped buttons very similar to these on a cheesy kiddie aloha shirt. They would make really cute upcycled earrings. I have 6 buttons, so I may make a bracelet instead. I just have to figure out how to string them together.In fact, I've been really "stuck" on the upcycling idea lately. I think my next sewing project will be to upcycle my senior prom dress into a dress for the baby's first Christmas. Maybe I'll post some before and after pictures. :) Speaking of pictures, I have a few more items to list in the store, but haven't gotten decent lighting for at least a week. It really is critical to have natural lighting, no flash, no filter, and no editing other than cropping to properly display a piece of jewelry. Artificial lighting just doesn't look right when it comes to beading.
