This week’s jewelry making product is a fairly basic one, but oh-so-useful. Making stretch bracelets is quite quick and satisfying, all the work is in choosing the beads. You can also use elastic to make rings, I’ll show you some time. No…
This week’s dragon started because I was wearing the necklace with Wyatt, dragon number 16 from way back in April, and I remembered that I had made more of those lentil beads, and not yet put them to use. Check out this post on Errol, dragon #1,…
