Chic Maker DIY Jewelry Kits

Do you ever get that itch to be crafty... and then realize you're too lazy to go out and find/buy all the pieces for your theoretical project? Fortunately, Chic Maker, makes it easy to get your craft on without stepping one foot outside your house. They'll ship one of their monthly DIY jewelry kits with all the materials and instructions right to your doorstep! I discovered Chic Maker when I was perusing one of my favorite blogs Delighted Momma. Below you can see what she did with the March bracelet-making kit. The materials happen to be in one of my favorite color combos too- tan and teal. So cute!

DIY Safety Pin Chain Bracelet

Found this perfect little DIY Safety Pin Chain Bracelet over at Flight of Fancy, and I plan to tackle it over the weekend! I really love the idea, especially because I already have all this stuff scattered around my house. I think I may thread some neon string in between the chains just to give it a little pop if color- which would look great since metallics and neon are really trending this Summer. Further instructions found HERE.

The Boyscouts Lookbook

I adore Zelda Beauchampet's graphic brand for girls entitled "The Boyscouts." You see it brought to life in this wonderful Lookbook styled by photographer and art director Joost van Brug. I love the pink backdrop used in this shoot, something I don't recall ever seeing before. The colors pop out beautifully, and each piece is displayed likes its own little work of art.

Mid-Week Obsession: Hermes

Vintage Twist on Friendship Bracelets

Handmade jewelry shop owner's Frieda and Nellie came up with the brilliant idea of re-purposing those braided friendship bracelets we made back in Girls Scouts into lovely pieces of grown-up jewelry. Look at all the fabulous vintage pieces they have transformed into works of art! Love this...

More Please: Macrame Jewelry

I'm in love with these pieces of jewelry from Lunatic Art. It's like the classic friendship bracelet's cool older sister. Mixing silver with hints of macrame... it's simple, but so cool.
