Check out these wool felt crowns I made for a couple of my friends for Valentines Day. So fun to make these. You can put detail into the decorations or do something simple. I bought the wool felt in red, cream, green and ochre. Need to cut out some more.
The two little crowns have different beading around the bottom and different hearts but otherwise they are the same.
This one is larger and it is mine! There is pink tinsel around the bottom below the white ruffle and pink flowers. I have been saving the vintage rhinestone heart pin for one of these beauties.
These are crocheted bracelets. My friend Jeanne made some and I thought they were so cool. I did change up the closure on mine. She had crocheted a loop to slip back over a bead. Since I am new to crochet I had to figure something else out. Saw a video on youtube for a crocheted multi strand necklace. It was strung this way and used the bead cones to bring it all together with a closure. It worked for me!
These are really quick to make since your just using the chain stitch of crochet. Just have to thread all the beads on before you start.
Finished this scarf. The yarn was different for me to knit with. Never used anything like it. After I got the hang of it (knitted between the balls) it was fun. Used one skein of yarn. Although I think if I do it again I will either make it skinnier (so it will be longer) or use another skein of yarn.
Here in Rowlett we got five inches of snow last night. It is so beautiful! This has been a crazy weather week in Texas for sure. Ice started on Monday night and had to stay home for two days. Finally got to get out and go to work yesterday. Things were still messy though on the roads and our parking lot at work was like an ice rink. Today we have snow!
This is out behind my house by the lake.
All bundled up!
I caught some birds taking off from the lake. Part of the lake is frozen near the shore.

Duke running through the snow. It was so funny to watch him. He was excited about being outside and things being so different than usual when he's out. I finally had to take his sweater off him because it was wet. When we came in the house the fur on his belly was matted with snow. I had to wet him to get it off. Just drying him with a towel was not working.

My baby covered in snow!
The lake frozen at the edge. 
These little cuties came from the scraps of the wool crown I posted the other day. When I cut the peaks on the crown I had these pieces left over. So I cut them into hearts. My friend Jeanne told us this idea when she showed us how to do the crowns. Works out great!
I sewed on buttons, rhinestones, seed beads, pearls and seam binding ribbon to finish them off.
The boy in this round pendant I mounted him up so he looks dimensional inside the resin. 
I made nest earrings and the other nest I will make into a pendant with a dangle below. That is why the wire has been left long. I wasn't sure what I wanted to do with the whole thing in the beginning.
Two of these are not filled yet. The one with the four eyelets I might make into a bracelet.
These have German glass glitter, pearls and charms inside. There is also a few star beads in the wish one.
I really liked making the nests. It was not hard at all.
This butterfly necklace I gave to a friend. She loves butterflies.
This one was a gift to my niece for her birthday.
