Trash to Treasure: My new weakness

So about a week ago, I found this tutorial/t2t idea, and I had to try it.

This is from PapernStitch and I thought it was the cutest necklace ever! So I had to go and make one myself, of course. I don't have a pic or I'd put it up. But I found some gold paint I already had, bought little plastic sea turtles from Dollar Tree, and gold chain and screw hook/eye things in the tool section at Walmart. So by the time I got done, the whole thing cost about $1.50, but it's something I'll actually wear, and it can be totally customized, because you can do anything with some paint and an empty chain!

Thanks PapernStitch for a great tutorial! It made me smile, and I like stuff that makes me smile. :] Hopefully next write, I'll share some pics of some amazing craft studios! I wish I had my own!!!!

Rewind

Ok, I'm gonna try this again. I already have two blogs on this site, now my third, but I absolutely love reading so many craft blogs, and getting tips and finding new things to try out and make and hopefully some day I can sell all this stuff I make. So any help I can get from any of you would be absolutely amazing! I think for now, I'm gonna try to write every day and post something that inspires me and my creative mind. Ok, so lets see how long this lasts....
