Spoons Spoons spoons

I sooo have a love hate relationship with my new obsession spoon jewelry! I have been working for days trying to perfect the talent of metal stamping on spoons SO here we go!!!
       I got these stamp set from Joann's for like 15 dollars. I just took the spoon bent the top over added some wire to make the top look fancy and then the stamping took me tons of tries to get it right its very hard!!!! but I finally got it you have to hammer the stamp pretty hard to get it to show up.

 at the end you can add some cute charms. this says Live Free

 I also did this one where i cut the entire handle off and then hammered the whole spoon to make it flat so i could mod podge this awesome circus elephant

Hope you guys like! it was a lot of work!

T- shirt Scarf

SO I saw this the other day on YouTube (my addiction) I swear you can learn anything if you just YouTube it!  Anyways it looked really super easy!! You just need a shirt and scissors.
 I got my shirt from the dollar tree but you can use an old one that you don't care for anymore.
                              

okay so first just cut the top off right under the armpit. you could use the left over sleeves for fabric flowers to add on the scarf.

 okay then you just start cutting stripes don't cut all the way through on one side because you are going to use it to put all strands together.

 after you have cut all the stripes you just start stretching the strands

 then when u are done stretching you take the side that you didn't cut and start folding together.

 like this they all should just fit right together

 you also can braid a few or tie a few to give it your own design

 I also added some cut leather to bind it together and hide the folded piece

 then you are free to add your own fun taste! Like I added this sweet bow tie which I will teach you next time!!!

Be free and be who you are!!!!

Ello!!!! my fellow DYi'ers

Sooo I'm super excited! I saw this adorable Dyi wood bolt necklace from Mr Kate's web blog YouTube thing and I just had to try it soo here it goes

                                First you need to go out in the deep dark woods okay just kidding go out in the yard and pic up a couple tiny tree branch's. You will also need wire paint and chain

      you then cut the tree pieces and start painting any colors you want

                                                 then just let them dry usually dries really fast

  then when they are dry you just wrap jewelry wire around the branches you can either leave them plain or add some bolts and screws. after you have them all separately twisted you wrap them all together doing figure 8's then at the top you loop the chain through the wire

                                                          I made wire rings to match

                                                                     So Happy!!!

                                                       Hope you have as much fun as I did
