So it appears that I haven't posted in a while. Although I love blogging, and I still do blog on myriad websites and blogs, this one has been far too neglected for far too long. If you would like to start following me, I decided to consolidate my 23 things blog, and this kind of blog, as well as other kinds of things I frequently think about here: http://larithelibrarian.blogspot.com/
This way, I am no longer struggling to keep multiple blogs up to date. I will pretty much post mostly at the above URL from now on...
For some reason, I decided to start building jewelry. This is the first necklace I have started making. I am concerned because I feel like I have no idea as to what I am doing. I would like to take some sort of jewelry making class, because I feel like I have two right hands (I'm left handed) when I'm attempting to do any of this stuff.
I went treasure hunting in Denton, but as a friend pointed out, going to junk stores has become sort of a "chic" thing to do. This makes me sad because that probably explains why all that "junk" is so darn expensive.
The chains and charms you see in the picture, I have all acquired from Michaels. I'm sad that I resorted to buying the charms from Michaels, as I want to make my own. But I sort of gave up and decided I wanted to build something right away.
So anyways, we were walking out in front of Target the other day, and Scott found this on the ground. I think it looks so cool. It reminds me of some sort of Atlantean civilization. So I'm definitely going to make something out of it. Because it's so brittle, I need to dip it in some sort of resin first.
Well, I'm excited to see if I can get the hang of this and make all sorts of pretty stuff real soon!
(By the way, if anyone I know is reading this, if you have any jewelry or metal "junk" lying around, I'll take it!)
