Well it was supposed to be a cowl, but the pattern I used was extremely off. The thing looked like a darn neck brace! It was super ugly.

So, I figured i'd improvise and make it into a purse.
I had a zipper laying around and even though it's  grey it still works

So I've been wanting to make one of these scarfs.
I got a tutorial for the actual popcorn stitch for the popcorn part but my problem is I have no clue how the bottom part is done.. HELP!??

Needing a little help.
I am currently crocheting a strawberry cowl cake (scarf) and I wanted the edging as well as around in the middle of the cowl to look like frosting.

If you think you have an idea to how this frosting in the photo i'm providing would crochet up, please let me know. I'm familiar with stitches but not so much looking and guessing. I think it's either single/double crochet combined? Any help would be AWESOME. Thank you..

 
My first scarflette.
I'm so happy.. i thought I'd share and see what all of you think!

I am getting married on June 6th of this year..
I don't have a lot of time to spare, so I'm kind of stalled on invitations.

We really don't want them made by a company so, we are hand making them. The only problem is that, we have to make over 300......... (yes, we have a lot of friends.)

Our colors are Maroon and Black (with white accents..)
I was wondering if anyone had any cute, fast and decent looking invitation styles that would be fairly easy to make...... links, photos, anything. I have a bit of help, considering I have 11 bridesmaids!


Thank you,
Norma.

Here are two more of my pieces i've made recently.
I'm in the process of making different things, now.
Suggestions? Comments?


Blueberry Cupcake Cameo Necklace w/Swarovski Crystals & Glass Beads


Strawberry Cameo Bracelet w/Glass Beads
(some of the beads came out - I didn't have any super glue at the time!!)

Finally getting back into the polymer clay jewelry making.
Let me know what you think! These are three I made this afternoon..

I've been looking at this girl's jewelry for quite a while now. It's quite a pretty penny so, I'd like to make my own. I know the crystals are swarvoski & she claims the pieces are made of "Lucite".. where could I get some of that or what else could I make these out of? I've tried DVD cases but, they came out horrible...

You know on the top of the cupcake - Icing for instance.. Are there any tutes out with pictures clarifying how to get that shape? Because, it just ain't working for me :/

I went to wal-mart tonight and bought some extra fine glitter to put in my polymer clay pieces I'm about to make. I was wondering if anyone knew exactly how I'm supposed to come across applying the glitter..? Do I put glitter on after baking and then put a glaze/top coat on or mix the glitter into the clay? If anyone has any clue to what I'm talking about, please send a reply. I'm getting on here first thing in the morning to see what you all have come up with as solutions. Well, goodnight! & Thanks.
