Feelin' Crafty

WOW. I haven't posted in quite a while. I could lie and say the only reason is because I'm just SOOO busy ;), but I've also been lazy. And it doesn't hurt that I've been on vacation and haven't had internet at home!!! I'll post about my vacation to Pow Wow Fest later when I get my pictures ready, but for now I'll show you a few projects I'm currently working on.
My friend Brittany and I have recently started making jewelry! I found a tutorial online to make dreamcatcher necklaces. Brittany and I both love dreamcatchers, so this was the perfect thing to start out with. I'm really excited about how my first one turned out that I'm thinking of starting an Etsy store! I'm in the early stages of doing this, but when I have more info I will definetely let you know.
Another project I've been working on is the table pictured below. Britt and I found it by the dumpster outside my apartment building and decided to give it some love! We started out by painting it (which you can't really see in the picture) and then gluing beer caps on the top. We left it unfinished for a couple of weeks and I felt uneasy about the design on the top, so I decided to redo it. I've finished gluing the caps in place and today I am going to get some paint and paint the spaces that don't have caps. I'm really excited to see it finished!
Tonight a few friends and I are getting together and making earrings and who knows what else! Have a great Monday!
