Second Versions

I was able to some more of a few of my favorite projects.

First I made a few more sentimental glass ornaments for a friend for Christmas. Similar to the one I made here. I made one with her and her hubby's wedding invitation and one with their daughters birth announcement. I forgot to take pictures but they came out cute, I promise! The only thing I did differently on the birth announcement one was I was able to put the strip with the baby's name across the front. I really liked that detail.


The other thing I made another one of is my interchangeable iPhone case. It kind of looks like fish scales. I love it! You guys can see the original post here and see what the secret is.

Glass Ornament



I saw this on Pinterest and decided to make it for a wedding I went to in November. I just cut the invitation into strips using my scrapbooking paper cutter. I was deliberate about my cuts making sure that i got the words on the strips. Then I curled the long strips around a pencil and the short strips around a q-tip. Then i slipped them into the glass bulb that i had pulled the top hanging part out of temporarily. Once I liked the way it looked i put the hanging part back in and ran sone ribbon through it to hang from. Simple and pretty. I chose not to put a charm on it like the one i have pinner. This is an easy and non-intrusive way it give the happy couple a hand made gift.
