Jewelry making

I started getting into jewelry making and beading last year. I got a kit from my mother-in-law for Christmas, and quickly learned how to use wire cutters like a semi pro. I would find designs that inspired me online and put my spin on them, and when I wasn't sure how to copy it I went to youtube.com and learned from the professionals. Here are some of the jewelry I have made this year:

 I made this one ^^ for a friend's daughter

 This is a St. Patrick's Day anklet for a friend ^^

 These two above were for friend's daughters as well

 This one is still mine ;)

 I gave this bracelet to a friend

 I made this bracelet for my sweet aunt, who loves lady bugs!

 I still have this bracelet

 This is a bracelet with a locket that I made for my sister

I made a few of these, each with different charms. I am thinking about giving them out as Christmas gifts!

So that is as crafty as I have gotten so far. I intend on finishing up my home made hot cocoa mix tomorrow, and posting about that. Then it is on to name plates for my kids, Christmas ornaments, a personalized wipes carrier, and eventually I intend on taking a sewing class and sewing hats, totes, and clothes! Here we go! :)
