Don't forget to bring a treat or appetizer to share! 

I won't be supplying the materials this time, so you'll need to make sure you bring your own! The list of what you need is below - you can find everything at Joann & Hobby Lobby.

Please bring at least 1 piece of fabric with you. I thought we could all share, and that way we could make a few pairs of earrings in different colors (smaller prints are best, fyi) Also, my friend Logan is bringing some cute rose beads (colors vary). If you want to make some rose earrings (pictured below), bring a couple bucks to pay for the beads!

Hope to see you guys there!!

craft ideas for the coming months

Hey gals, 

So our next craft group will be on October 19th & the one after that will be on November 16th - both at 6:00 at my house (unless otherwise noted). We won't get together in December to do a craft since that month is so busy with parties and festive outings!

So, this post is to throw some ideas out there for October & November's crafts!

Let's figure out what we want to do!

Here are some of my ideas...if you have any that you want to do, send me a picture and I'll throw it up on here or leave a comment with a link to the picture!

 Burlap & nail head trim bulletin board. Easy & cheap.

 Fabric button earrings - might be fun to make these in November and give them as Christmas gifts! they're pretty cheap too!

 I've been wanting to make this advent calendar for awhile now! All you need is a frame, some scrapbook paper, wire, eye hooks, & clips.

 Jewelery Holder - the one pictured is one that I made. These are so easy! All you need is a frame from DI & the metal backing. I have the supplies to attach them. Maybe for October? 

Got any other ideas? Send them my way! Also, vote for your favorite on the side here

This was the inspiration...

And this is the result!

chevron stencil (bought at hobby lobby) 

and wood planks cut to size (i cut a 1x8x8 into 13" long pieces)
