Beading Project : Earrings !

Hands up those who simply love earrings ?

I supposed you can then identify with me the feeling of seeing earrings, even at those night market selling at RM10 for 3.

I personally love earrings so much that I've decided to pick up some beading skills so i could DIY it myself. Cheaper and prettier! * winks* 

If you're like me and would love to DIY your own earrings too, here's some simple start-up ideas for you. I made all these within less than half an hour - hence, it's really quite an effortless job to be done. 

Here's basically what you need :- 

p/s: Thanks Agnes for the personalized handkerchief. I'm still using it for my beadings! ; ) 

Look at the following picture on steps to DIY an earring. I think the photos are pretty self-explanatory.

Here are some of the DIY earrings I've made just a moment ago and you know what, it definitely does not cost more than RM3 per pair (what i mean to say is : definitely cheaper than RM10 for 3 pairs). Heh. 

Enjoy girls!~

Handmade Cards!

We've finally graduated from Disciple Course after 10 months digging deep into the bible together ! My fellow coursemates have been a great inspiration to me on this journey of faith. I've grown to love each and everyone of them.Thank you all! 

For this very reason, I've handmade some congratulatory/thank you cards with personal message to each and everyone of them. 

Here's how I did it :- 

1. Draw a tree with branches as above on a plain color paper (folded into two for personal message) 

2. I cut out the love prints from some present papers and pasted it underneath the tree - representing the foundation of the tree that bear love - love itself 

3. Cut out some love shapes 

4. Create a 3-D effect by using the double sided foam tape. 

5. Stick them onto the branches. Include some personal message on it (front and inside)

6. Ta da ! Here's the completed batch of handmade craft cards for them ! :)  

Easy! 

It took less than 10 minutes to make one of these. 

If ever you run out of ideas for some DIY-cards, these might save your day!

Elegant Vintage Floral Leafy Pendant

Yesterday i went to restock some of the jewellery accessories. It's been awhile since i last did any beadings, except earrings to give out for our first-time customers. I simply couldn't resist the pendants that are absolutely gorgeous ! 

However, due to budget constraints, I only managed to buy these. 

I was sooooo tempted to go back to the shop and buy more! If it wasn't for my mom's stare, I would! :P 

with some of the combination of my own beads collection, here's what i've DIY-ed out of it ; ) 

A pretty simple do-it-yourself pendant necklace. Let your creativity runs!

Meantime, I'll go and try out some other designs ! *excited*
