sew busy

So sorry for the lapse in posts! Its been such a busy week-this Saturday is the wedding of one of my oldest friends and I'm doing the 'coordinator/planner/boss you around' type of thing...I'm also altering her gown which of course takes a bit of time-I used to work in a bridal shop doing alterations so its something i'm familiar with-but its tedious stuff-and there is of course a teeensy bit of stress involved-however confident in my abilities I may be-I have to CUT into a super expensive dress...it always freaks me out a bit! Its fine though-all done and I didn't ruin it! lol
I did take a break from slaving away at the sewing machine (slight exaggeration;) to encourage my daughters ever growing narcissism(kidding-kidding) seriously though what 2 year old poses like its for the cover of Vouge...
she cracks me up:)

Another chance to win!

ruffled feathers

I made my own feather earrings last night and wanted to share how!

You'll need:
Pliers (the small ones intended for jewelry making)

Crimps, Jump-Rings, and Earring Hooks.

a length of chain

and feathers!

First choose and trim the tops of your feathers.
Fit them into the crimp thingy and using the pliers flatten it, securing the feathers firmly.

next attach a jump ring to the crimp.

add 2 to 3 lengths of chain (cut however long or short you want them) and the earring hook to the jump ring. close the jump-ring and flaunt your fabulous earrings!
