~Friendship~

Today I got a package from a friend back home.  I had sent her a scarf and some bookmarks I made for her bday, and some other little things for exmas. 

Well, she said that I should be getting something soon.

Today I got it.  Great gifts from a great friend!

She made me a hat.  I'm not sure how she made it, so when I call her later I'll have to ask her.  Let's just say this:  She made my scarf look like nothing!  Great Job, Holly!

She even got me a watch! Thank you!

Thanks, Holly!

~Kenzie and her Earrings!~

YAY!!!  Kenzie FINALLY decided to take out her earring studs and put in dangling earrings.  I have been trying to convince her to take them out and put some other earrings in, but she never would.  Well, I told her I would make her a pair of earrings if she would just take out her studs and wear them.  Well, finally I convinced her to take them out and now she has two extra pair of earrings (that I made for her) to wear.  She said her ears feel better and she is way more comfortable about changing them out now.

WAY TO GO, KENZIE!

Modeling the new danglies...

Today the supplies that Kenzie and I ordered off of Oriental Trading arrived.

Kenzie needed some new craft supplies and I needed to get some much needed supplies to start on the bottlecap jewelry stuff Mom and Dad got me for Christmas.

As soon as they arrived Kenzie and I told Zack "Sorry, but we don't want to play the Wii any more." And we got right to work...

Kenzie was having fun stringing some beads together and adding on buttons and other stuff to make some necklaces.

She had all her supplies spread out all over one of our two tables. 

This was my work-space.  One-half of a table.

Here were my supplies.  Pliers, jumpring opener, jumprings, earring charms, and earring hooks.

Here were my charms.  Owls and Skull Keys.  Two totally different things, but two things that I thought looked neat.

Completed.  I made a Christian cross pair, the owl and skull key pairs, and I even made Kenzie a pair of button earrings.  (She never takes her earrings out, but she said she would try it now that I made her some and she has a pair to switch out.  We'll see...)
