Just a little crafting . . .

Yesterday (in between the 'lemon meringue pie' saga!) I managed just a little bit of crafting, well more experimenting really! I had a brief encounter with 'jewelery making' using tweed, a very long time ago. The other morning I awoke with a similar idea in my head (Yes, the 'Idreamoftweed' blog URL is in fact true - eeeeks!!)

I only managed a little piece of similar work, but might pick it up later today as a fun, relaxing project. I've photographed the pendant style pieces on top of my newly acquired business cards which came with their own free 'silver' card holder - very 'James Bond' looking, hehe! You might be able to see a slight reflection of blond(ish!) hair in the pic - my new choppy bob 'hair-do'! A change is as good as . . .

Happy Valentine's! (my youngest has been given a reprieve (after the 'pie incident) as I received a cute homemade card from him - he knows the way to my heart, hehe!!)

Aha! Pendants! Love the eyelet at the top. Looks very professional.

Think these will remain at the experimental stage for a while - just a little fun at the mo! :D

I'm liking the look of the pendants. I had a similar idea with felt and embroidery and eyelets at one point but ran out of momentum....
