My Newest Obsession ..

So we all know how much I love makeup and beauty products .. but recently my newest obsession has been Jewelry. I have always liked jewelry but was never really into it .. until recently. I mostly blame my grandmother, whose love for jewelry has spread onto my direction.


I like to find different pieces, things that are unique, conversation pieces so to say. So I decided that I would give it a shot at making my own jewelry. Now, I am not that most creative person in the world, and for some reason when it comes to things like knitting, or paiting, pottery, even artsy jewelry design I definitely do not have the knack..but my friend Nicole suggested I give it a shot.


I decided to start with something easy that I have been wanting for a long time .. a wrap bracelet..however I did not realize how easy this was going to be. Actually, I think picking out the theme and the bead colors was the hardest part since we were in a store that had every bead and shape and color imaginable. I decided to play it safe with black..


I purchased all my goodies, and ventured on home with Nicole to see if I could actually do this. 4 hours, a couple broken needles, and a grilled cheese sandwich later .. I came up with this .. I actually have to say I really like it .. and I will definitely be making more. This has sparked my creative side, and I think I am going to be taking classes to try to make other types of jewelry.

What do you think?
