Target Feather Earring Ripoff

I saw earrings like this at Target today for $7.99 and I couldn't bring myself to spend that soooo I made my own.

I had some cheap 80's style thick white hoops and some of my dad's fly tying feathers I "borrowed" to put feathers in my hair....and everyone I know who will let me put one in.

So easy peasy I hot glued feathers all the way around the hoop...and layered them so they looked better and voila - free earrings as opposed to $8.

Sparkly Earrings

I bought a necklace for $3 at a craft fair. It was missing a few gems and still had the price tag on it...for $48! I took it apart Added a pearl on a short headpin onto the bottom "eye" Put on the earring piece Voila!

Stretchy Random Bead Bracelets

I used Stretch Magic Cord and a coworker gave me 2 big bags of random beads so I separated some out by colors I thought would look nice together. To finish them I put a small crimp bead on, knotted the elastic a few times, added a dot of super glue, slid the crimp bead over the knot and and clamped it shut.
