I'm participating in Finished for Friday at Lit & Laundry this week. I am a sporadic participant, as I am a great procrastinator!
I've complete several projects this week, even with assisting my parents in watching the grandkids.I wasn't getting any custom orders for the initial cards I was showing on etsy, so I made up some with the most common first-name letters for women.I'm slowly getting them listed, and have already sold a couple.They come in coordinating sets of 2 in a cello bag, making them great stocking stuffers.I also made a few pairs of these Christmas angel earrings. I like the mix of silver and colors, and they are larger than my other angel earrings. For me, personally, these are the ones I would wear.I thought these were a cute idea. They are Christmas Wish bracelets, which can be tied on well before Christmas, with the wearer making a wish, and not taken off until Christmas Day. Or, the long strings can be cut off and the bracelet can be taken on and off with a knot and loop closure. I'm selling them for only 1.50, but they take longer and are more challenging to make than you'd imagine. A few Christmas stretch bracelets, some funky, some more elegant. The one above I call Candy Pillows, and below is Christmas Geometry.They range in price from $6.00-$8.00 depending on the cost of the materials. Some of these fancy beads cost more than $1.00 a piece! Above is Christmas Treats and below Space Age Peppermints.Check out those red beads that look like the planet Saturn with its rings!I also have a few that are smaller for a child's wrist, like this one I call Sweets for the Sweet.
Now I have a job for those of you visiting this week. I am participating in a Secret Santa Swap and plan to send one of these 4 bracelets to my swap-ee. Please vote in the poll on the right for which YOU would most enjoy. I can't decide which I like best, so I figure I'll go with a group vote. Thanks in advance for your help!

Thanks for joining in! You've been busy. The Christmas treats bracelet is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteI love Space Age peppermints but Christmas geometry is cute too. These are really cool. They would look cool with some dangly charms too. I am all about the jingling.
