june/07 - crocheted necklaces and vinyl wristlets

crocheted necklaces

it's for sarah, and she's allergic to metal, which made it WAAY more complicated to make. instead of my usual "crochet a strand 10 or 15 feet long then put jumprings through", i had to crochet each strand seperately, and i couldn't add the charms later, so i had to try to position them properly. and then i drilled two holes in the star to make a button for the closure. it turned out SO well though, i'm completely in love with it. very very mermaid like! (for her i<3 you package, secret till the weekend)

previous necklaces i've made are posted here - http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=149526.msg1480309#msg1480309

and i made these in the past week to give all the mod girls in portland.
they can be worn as wristlets, or snapped around one of the handles on our mod squad totebags. the blue's a super close match to the silkscreening on it.

the skull and scissors are vinyl applique, and the names are all sewn on with multiple lines of stitching.












they'll be filled with some goodies - canadian candy, etc. fun fun.
