Pattern Info

Pattern info for this project can be found here:

Instructions

I demonstrate how to make these on video on my blog at: http://carolynscanvas.blogspot.com/2011/06/making-quick-quirky-accessories.html

Category: Jewelry

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women

Style: Funky, Mod, Casual, Hipster, Cute


Materials

bandanna or fabric, pony beads, cotton balls

What was your inspiration?

love bandannas, love beads, love kicky quick things to do, love things that are different

What are you most proud of?

I found it is easier to use cotton balls for the stuffing than regular stuffing or batting that I have used in making these in the past and they are uniform in size.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

I was pleased with the secondary pattern that came about in the necklace with the larger cotton beads. Be mindful of your fabric pattern and see what different looks you can come up with and have fun.

thank you, about hubby-the poor thing-we will be married 55 years on 2/2/12 and he has tried diligently for all those years to kind of escape. Now he is retired and not well and is trapped 24-7. Paybacks! appreciate, it is very hard for him.
