It's been a crafting weekend,,,
a little of this & that... oh and hubby bought me a new chest freezer...whoot, whoot, it's been a great weekend!

I made this bracelet and I used a magnetic closure. The wee lil sewing machine has crystal chips on it,, but I couldn't get it to show...

I saw a bracelet in a Victorian catalog,, but just felt it was a bit pricey..
so I collected vintage looking watches, (only the middle one works)... and assembled them.

I spotted this idea on pinterest... and needed 2 gifts for 2 of my glamping gal pals.. TaDa!,,
Hubby cut out the lil windows, and I glued on a sheet of clear plastic (from a sheet protector) and after adding the photo I glued on a pieces of felt then trims around the edges... and of course decorated it.
yep,, I have been crafty this weekend.

Jaime, barrow to your hearts content ... that's what I did. ;)
DH used a Drimel cutter to cut out the windows.
I would have glued on rhinestones but didn't have any in my stash so I used faux pearls. I also used mini roses.
Because I glue guned everything (decoration) on I wouldn't recommend leaving it hanging outside. I think I will make another one with out the Bling to hang outside my trailer.
