Lost in Laundry

How cute is this "Mama Bird" nest necklace, with three little eggs for my three little birdies?!?

And, of course, I saw the tutorial for making this precious pendant on Pinterest. (I have never made jewelry unless you count braided friendship bracelets in sixth grade, but this was a quick, easy project.)

I made a necklace for my friend Danielle too. I'm quite sure when I give it to her the first thing she'll say is, "Oh! I saw this on Pinterest!" Pinterest, making it impossible to pretend as though you're creative all on your own without the aid of the internet!

I adore it.

Starr had this to say:: Yes! That's the one I made! I was kind of impressed with myself.

And the kids were home after school for this project, but I just stuck them in front of the TV. Jonathan is out of town so I can get away with that stuff. :); January 13, 2012 at 5:31 PM
valerie in TX had this to say:: Love this! I saw it on Ann VosKamp's blog - she was giving some away to go with her 1000 Gifts book and had the tutorial link. Yay! Glad to know it wasn't hard. I was thinking about making some for gifts but was sorta worried 'cause I'm waaay craft impaired. :)

Hahaha - cracking up about the TV comment! ;); January 14, 2012 at 12:52 AM
valerie in TX had this to say:: And, can I just say you look fabulous in that picture in your side bar? :) How long has that been up and I've just been oblivious?; January 14, 2012 at 12:54 AM
Starr had this to say:: Valerie - You can TOTALLY make this necklace. If you have trouble I will help you but I really, really, don't think you will. Got all the supplies at Wal-Mart for less than $10 bucks, and you could get 2, maybe 3 necklaces out of that.

Thx for the pic comment and for noticing! I just put those up tonight, along with links to different categories. I'm kinda tired of my blog look so I was tweaking while staying within the confines of my VERY limited blog design knowledge. :) Do you know Andy West from church? Alan and Amy's son? He took the pics. Here's a link to more pics he took of us. He was great! http://www.flickr.com/photos/28754132@N06/sets/72157628703134271/
