A little creativity...

I know I haven't been here for quite some time, but I still have done a little creating. Actually I've done a lot, most of which I can't show you because it's in the form of our school yearbook. This is the 3rd year I've done the yearbook for our elementary school. It's a lot of work & that's basically why I haven't been here for the past few weeks.
I started making jewelry 5 years ago right, before I had my last baby! I actually started at a perfect time because I had just gotten all the supplies & then a few weeks later (at 7.5 months pregnant) I ended up in the hospital for a week with pneumonia. It was a horrible week (the week right before Christmas to top it off!). After the first round of antibiotics I felt 90% better, but they wouldn't let me leave! My kids couldn't come see me, which I think ended up being harder on me than it was on them. So I had my hubby bring my jewelry supplies (amongst many other things to work on) and I made lots of jewelry that week.
These first 4 bracelets (the two above & just below) I made yesterday for my niece's new baby (I'm going to her shower tomorrow~the baby isn't here yet).

These last 2 I made for a friend's little 3 yr. old girl!

1) It can probably never be said often enough but THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for all the work you do on the yearbook! I have no idea what I COULD do to help, but let me know if there is anything.

2) Those are adorable. Are you selling any of them?

I can make these to sell. You can choose the colors you want!
I charge $8 for baby bracelets, $10 for older girls & $15 for adult sizes (using the cats eye & swarovski crystal beads). The cat's eye's are the white, pink (in the bottom picture) and the lt. purple~~they come in many other colors. The swarovski crystals are my favorite, they are the pink ones in the 2nd picture & the clear in the 5th picture. You can choose other beads, but the prices will be higher.

If you're interested email me at chelscraps (at) yahoo (.) com.

I probably would like to buy 1 or 2, they would have to be made slightly larger - for my big boned wrist. I'll let you know which ones I would like later - I like Blue and green (not in the same bracelet thou) - Do you have green beads? What about making one with the color of beads similiar to birthstones - like a Mothers Bracelet. I would want one with Darin, Evan, Ruth and Mine all on it. If that would be possiable. I like the colors off the Mystical Birthstone Chart - January-Green Emerald, July-Red Ruby, October-Lavender Jasper, November-White Pearl.

here is the site I got the stones from - let me know if that would work
