Hey, Everyone! I hope you are all enjoying a relaxing weekend! I thought I would hop on while the little man is napping to show you a necklace that I made with the help of my friend, Kristyn. Did you know that I make jewelry? I know. You would never know because I haven’t made anything in a very long time.
Anywho, Kristyn wanted a unique and personal gift for a friend’s birthday. She picked out all of the components and helped with the design. I think it is absolutely perfect. I love that it is casual but could easily be dressed up for an evening out, and I especially love how the pendants are tied together in the center with a bow. So sweet! What do you think? 🙂 Would you like to see some more jewels?
I hope to see you all back on Monday for EEK Weeks! I have to tell you Monday’s project is the best by far (to me anyways) and it’s a double feature…not one, but two fantastically fall projects! 🙂 Have a great rest of your weekend!
