Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree!

I found this gorgeous 6ft flocked Christmas tree while browsing on Amazon and fell in love. It was the perfect addition to my bedroom. One of my favorite seasons to decorate for is Christmas. I would have a tree in every room if I could. I have a larger tree and wanted to set it up where by bunny girl Annie has her little hay room. She brought up a stink so I opted this year for the Amazon tree as my main tree. Its skinny and tall and perfect. Also very lightweight and the best part easy to put together. You can store it later in the box which isn't very big at all. I love this tree. Its currently on sale too with a discount code. All you need to do is quickly stack the pieces, fluff the branches, decorate. I added a strand of batter lights which I also purchased on Amazon. I may be addicted to Amazon lol

To decorate I used an assortment of ornaments, floral picks, bows and some plastic snowflakes. I think it turned out quite cute the white tree collar is also an amazon find. The tree and collar are linked below. I love this collar it comes in a small box and it clicks together in pieces. In Love!!

6ft tall flocked artificial Christmas tree with 477 snow branches.

26.8' round wicker pattern. Made with high durable plastic just

There it is my pretty tree this year.
Here are some additional up close photos of the tree.

Make Glass Stud Earrings With Me

A step by step guide on how I make my glass cabachon earrings.

STEP ONE:

I created a template of my favorite prints in Photoshop. Each image is 12mm in diameter. I then print them out using my home printer. I use high quality 4x6 glossy photo paper. I love the clean crisp images that I get with my printer and this paper.

STEP TWO:

Now we make the cabochons. I purchase 12mm glass domes on Etsy. I then use my clear glue and put a drop onto each image. I then take the glass dome and apply it on top with some pressure and to wiggle it around to get out any air bubbles. This makes for a clear crisp cabochon for my earrings.

STEP THREE:

Now it's time to cut the images out. After the cabcohons have dried 24 hours. I then cut out the section of the cabochons I am making. Take your scissors and cut around the domes to make the pieces for your earrings. You'll be cutting through some of the glue.

STEP FOUR:

Time to grab an emery board. I get mine at my local dollar store. Take your emery board and file lightly around each piece to remove the excess glue and get a clean edge around your domes. Careful not to scratch the surface and ruin your cabochons.

STEP FIVE:

Time to make your earrings. Using some E6000 glue I put a small dab onto the backs of the cabochons and then I put them into my 12mm stainless steel bezels. Let dry for 24 hours and now you have some pretty silver glass stud earrings.

PROJECT COMPLETED

Yay our earrings are ready to wear or gift to someone special. If you love these earrings and want to purchase them you can find them both in my Etsy shop and my website as well. I will link them below. Hope you loved this little tutorial I put together for you. Its fun to see a project go from start to finish!

Love My Crafting Desk

After searching and searching for the perfect craft desk....I found it!! I wanted something that would fit between my two cupboards and fill the gap between the cupboards as much as possible. I was also looking for something that would sit centered below one of my favorite art pieces. After going from store to store shopping and searching online, I found it. I stumbled upon it from Amazon. I am Amazon obsessed but who isn't? It was a bit tricky to put together but I figured it out. I opted to leave out the keyboard pull out tray. The purpose of this desk was for crafting at. Lately I have been using it to take photos of my jewelry.  I love all the storage this desk has for my crafting needs. Three drawers with a lock drawer to keep my nieces out of my drawing supplies haha!! I also love how there were two open shelves to expose my decorative storage boxes. The shelves are quite deep and can hold lots. The handles that came with the desk were plain silver ones which I replaced with some I found also on Amazon. I used the same ones as the ones I replaced on my cupboards. Your girl has some OCD and thrives on balance and symmetry. I am still on the lookout for a comfy low profile desk chair. By shopping my Amazon links below, not only will you score some awesome finds, but you'll also help me treat myself to a chocolate bar!

Under The Kitchen Sink Organization

Yay I finally got a chance to add some labels to my acrylic drawers. I went with these ones on Amazon. They are perfect for organizing all my kitchen essentials. They are just deep enough without interfering with my plumbing. The acrylic box beside for my cleaning products I just picked up at my local dollar store. I also picked up that little dish for my bristle sponge there as well.

A quick glimpse of how everything looks complete. I will post a bunch of links if your interested in picking anything up that you see in the photos.

I have a cubby for my kitchen sponges, all purpose IKEA sponges. I also have room for some magic erasers (I cut mine into cubes for fast touch ups) then a cubby for my cordless power scrubber attachments along with my scrub daddy.

A cubby for my cleaning and polishing cloths. Love my stainless steel container that I use to store my clorox & lysol cleaning cloths. My cordless power scrubber I can't live without. Then a cubby for my eco friendly scent free dishwasher pods.

 
And to finish everything off an over the door mini hanger for a towel after washing the dishes and needing to dry your hands right after. Hope you loved seeing how I organized under my kitchen sink. I will post some of my Amazon affiliated links for you below.

New Shop Name & New Items

Geeze it's been a hot minute since I last posted anything here. My latest news is a new shop name and new branding. It was definitely time for a shop name change. I decided to go with my first and middle name as a reflection of who makes and designs my jewelry... me :) I renamed my shop a few years ago and so happy with the new name change as well as the branding. I feel like my shop has come such a long way. I've been selling jewelry online now for almost 18 years and think I have come a long way. Here is a sampling of the latest springtime collection. Hope you love it ♥
