More bracelets :)


I went to Michael's and Hobby Lobby on Saturday and got a few things. Some of those new Paper Studio paper pads at Hobby Lobby are really cool! Some have more sheets than others...the ones I got I think have 24 sheets and on sale came out to $4. Which I think is pretty good. Although I guess if you got single sheets when papers are 5 for $1, you'd probably be able to get more sheets. Anyway, I got two pads that had really pretty bright colored papers. There were some really nice ones with distress-y looking papers or papers with like fluer de lis and stuff like that, but I figured I really have more than enough of those kinds of papers. I don't seem to have a good selection of bright papers so that's what I got. I also got a few bags of beads for my new "hobby" :) But they didn't really have too many to choose from. At least not ones that I really liked. Michael's on the other hand, had TONS of beads...such pretty beads..so many different kinds and colors and shapes. I didn't look nearly as much as I wanted to because Mikey was kind of fussy, so I just grabbed a few strands that caught my eye (btw, M's had their beads on sale too). I was able to find some gorgeous turquoise beads. I was REALLY wanting to find some to mix with some silver beads...I thought they'd look really cool together..and they did! I want to go back when beads are on sale again and when I have more time to look and choose. Miguel says my bracelets are really pretty and that if I wanted him to, he would try to sell them for me at his job...I think that's really sweet of him :) Maybe I will...we'll see. Anyway, I made these bracelets Saturday night. My favorite bracelet is the one pictured second. I don't know if I want to sell that one...it's so pretty!! lol Anyway, it's late and I'm tired. Everyone is sleeping except for me, so good night and TFL :)
