Braided Bangles

This is another post I saw on Pinterest that I thought would be easy to execute, so I gave it a try and it turned out pretty well. The only thing I noticed is that some colors are softer than others and stretch out a little more than you may want. The process is super simple, just make equal sized little snakes out of clay and braid them until its is long enough to fit around your wrist. Then just push the two sides together and you have yourself a braided bangle. The swirled bracelet was made in a similar fashion. Roll out two snakes and then roll them together and join the ends the same way. Bake it according to the brands directions and its ready to wear.
 Here are all the bracelets I made, and below are just a couple of the bracelets by themselves.

New Phone Case

Back when I had a blackberry I had the same boring blue cover on it for the two years that I had it. About six months before I was due for an upgrade I revamped that case, and really like how it turned out.I have since upgraded, but it was still fun to do and pretty easy.



Here's a quick video on the process, I used E6000 for the rhinestones and regular elmers glue for the glitter.

Introduction

I started this blog a while ago to document the things I tried from Pinterest as well as any other crafty things I did. I don't have any step by step pictures, so for now I'll leave you with some pictures of the polymer clay animals I made.
