Hey Y'all! : )

I've been busy moving back in to college and haven't been able to tend to my blog yet. Sorry about that! As soon as things calm down and I am on a normal schedule I will post new stuff! Also, I will only be checking my email hilaryso2e@gmail.com every once in a while because I can't access it from campus. So if you need me or want to place an order email me at hilarypierce@clearwater.edu. Thanks!

People Magazine Bracelet

This bracelet is made from the most annoying part of the magazine. The subscription card that is always falling out and driving me crazy. Haha! I decided to put it to use instead of throwing it away. This bracelet is hot pink, light blue, & black and has an awesome story behind it!

Blue & Green Bracelet

Newspaper Bracelet with Bow

Bracelet made with paper beads

I made this bracelet to match the necklace.

My First Necklace

This took me a few hours and it has almost 50 handmade beads!

The "Sandra Bullock Breakup Bracelet"

This is a bracelet I made for my mom. I made it out of a magazine article about Sandra Bullock leaving Jesse James. I know it's kind of sad. Haha. But I wanted it to be just black and white with letters so I chose that article. The name is pretty catchy too.

New Things Coming!!

A few days ago I made my first necklace!! It took a few hours because I made almost all of the beads by hand (I have the paper cuts to prove it). I'm about halfway through my second necklace now! Hopefully I will be posting pictures soon!!
