Leather & Gold Feather Earrings // DIY

Today we're making leather feather earrings. That's right. Leather feather earrings. Try saying that three times fast.

Leather feather leather feather leather feather.

These earrings were inspired by this pin on pinterest, but I couldn't find the original site that they came from. 

And if you aren't super crafty or you don't have the supplies, you're in luck! I made quite a few extra pairs and listed them in my ETSY SHOP.

Glittery Studded Studs // DIY

I'm so excited for this 3-day weekend! It is definitely much needed.

Today we're making these super cute studded stud earrings!

I have given a few pairs of these away through giveaways on other blogs. I'm thinking of doing a giveaway of a pair when I hit 100 followers, what do you think?

 For some I used a dark grey glitter and for others I used pink.

For listings of other jewelry that I make, be sure to check out my Etsy shop!

Zipper Bracelet // DIY // Repurpose October

I'm afraid of fire. 

Kinda funny that I'm a Chemistry major and, well, we have Bunsen burners.

Anyways, what does my fear of fire have to do with crafts? You'll need a lighter or a candle or matches or a blowtorch (pick your poison) for this one!

And it takes literally five minutes.

We're finally down to the last week of REPURPOSE OCTOBER! How sad! Of course, I will always be posting new DIYs each week (that is, after all, the purpose of this blog!) but I have really enjoyed trying to be extra creative and repurpose things!

Don't forget to keep sending in your repurposed crafts for a feature post of my favorites at the end of the month!

I have seen this done a few other places before, but I can't seem to pinpoint the original creator. If that is you, feel free to send me an e-mail and I'll post a link to your site for credit!

Gold Triangle Earrings // DIY

Happy Sunday!

If you missed last week's Number Pillow DIY, I highly recommend you go check it out!

Today I have an incredibly simple project for you all, which you're going to love!

Check out these cute gold triangle earrings!

I found these cute gold triangles at Michael's in the jewelry clearance. Although the concept of this project is quite simple, it just goes to show that simple, cheap crafts can look just as good as the fancy ones!

Mustache Necklace // DIY

I got really excited yesterday. 

Why, you ask? Because I was on the blog Swenson Love! I did a button swap with Jess for the month of July and yesterday she did a group post about all of her swappers. It was a really sweet little feature and I love her blog. You can check out her sponsor swap post here. Thanks, Jess! It was fun swapping with you!

I have now started accepting sponsors myself through a sponsor swap! Check out the new sponsor page to learn more.

Since last week's Nook/Kindle Cover DIY tutorial was so long, I have something a bit shorter for you this week!

This is a super easy project to do. Even if you can't find the exact materials to make this, you can still apply the idea to other jewelry making supplies that you can find. 

Today we are making a mustache necklace!

I'm pretty sure my mom would hate this style, but mustaches are one of the quirky nerdy trends right now. When I found this silver mustache at Hobby lobby, I knew it would be a super cute, super easy project.

Red Statement Necklace

It's Friday! I have to get all of my homework done today because tomorrow is the Relay for Life!! I'm on the planning committee so we have to be there at 8 am tomorrow morning (ugh!) but it'll all be worth it for such a great event for an even greater cause. 

This week's blog post is more for inspiration to get you crafting than a specific DIY since I don't have as much time as usual.

UPDATE: This item is now available in my Etsy shop, but hurry! There is only one available.

Like this red necklace? I made it! (I know, I know. Big surprise).

I saw these beads at Michael's (on sale, of course) and knew they would make the perfect statement necklace. It's chunky without being too bulky!
