These are some really quick projects I made one night for a welcome event raffle for the Native students on campus. Maybe I should have put more time into the keychain!
This is that Sculpey dough you can bake in your oven. I made these crafty little things for my sisters in Madison. Alpha Pi Omega is a Native American sorority, and we've been on UW-Madison campus since 2001. :)
Christmas time means craft time. I thought it would be soo much fun to make a gingerbread village. These were the first two houses I completed, for the last three I was majorly DONE with gingerbread, frosting, and candy!
Here is a picture of the first (and only so far) jingle dress I ever made. It was for my boyfriend's niece, and I think she already grew out of it. So maybe dress number two is on it's way?
This is a double sided medallion I made for a friend. He wanted a bear paw and a thunderbird. I don't know if it's tough enough for him... he's in the Army!
The third pair of earrings I made. I wore them myself until my boyfriend's Aunt really wanted them and kept asking about them- so of course I gave them to her!
This is a headband I completed as part of a set. I have yet to finish the hairties and the choker with drop. So much work left, and not enough of the colors I need. Anyway, this was my first real project.
I am very fond of beading graduation caps. This was my boyfriend's cousin's cap for her high school graduation. I used a peyote stitch for his cap- and quickly learned my lesson... okay maybe slowly... :) Here I used a lazy stitch- it came out pretty nice considering I always wait last minute. Procrastinator? Yeah.
These are the second pair of earrings I made, and they were for my good friend to celebrate her college graduation. I saw her wear them once, and I was so happy! A little rough, but I'm learning...
I just thought it'd be nice to post some of the things I've worked on in the past. I am currently working on some projects and I feel like I really need to be inspired. Feel free to comment, question, etc.
