Facet Jewelry Box!

So remember when I posted about the Facet Jewelry Box - a subscription where you can get a monthly project in the mail? Well, they're out! I received mine! They come in a very pretty teal box that you can not mistake! However, I can't show you a photo of my box because it has ended up in recycle. Oh well!  But here are some photos of the projects in my box!

You get two beginner projects and an instruction booklet.



In my box, I received an earring project, wrapped briolettes, and a necklace project, Pearl Cascade.  Your instruction booklet lists materials, tools, and clear instructions with photos!


The project baggies come with all materials needed to make the projects - you just need to supply your tools. They show you how to make everything.

Here are some up close photos of the projects from my box.


The back of your instruction book also provides you with a way to share your creations, and a coupon code to get 10% off a purchase at their web site!


Unfortunately, I haven't make the projects yet. I just haven't had the time between work and a few other life events that can't be helped. I'll let you know when I do.

All in all, I think these are great beginner projects that are easily made in a small amount of time (based on my first box). I don't know if they will have intermediate or advanced project lines, but I think it would be a great idea. If you like getting a surprise in the mail each month, this is a great thing to do! I know I love getting my beady mail!

The Tacky Earring Blog Hop

Diana Ptaszynski had a great idea, instead of a Tacky Christmas Sweater blog hop, a Tacky Holiday Earring blog hop! I was on it.  I had ideas right away.  I had so many I had to control myself.  You can buy these for $15 each, too!  Here we go! I found these awesome wreaths in the miniature Christmas section in Michaels, and they go perfectly with silver and copper colored plastic beads! These trees were found in Michaels, on an end-cap - I assume they are scrapbook or card making supplies, but make fantastic earrings.  The holes were a little small and far down, so I had to make LARGE loops.  Paired these with cute little gold colored jingle bells! And, finally, the ones I had in my head the moment she announced the blog hop.  Dr. Seuss sparkly puff balls with ribbons.  The only thing that would have made these better for me is if I could have found the red ribbons I really wanted to pair these with - don't get me wrong, the silver is cool and all, but in my head they w

Bead Soup Blog Party!

Welcome to the 3rd Bead Soup Blog Party! What is a Bead Soup Blog Party? Each beader was paired up with another jewelry designer and tasked with sending the following: ~ A focal ~ A special clasp (not just a lobster claw) ~ Some coordinating spacers or beads Using the focal and the clasp was mandatory, but we could use anything from our own stash to round out the rest, and choose to use the coordinating beads or not.
