Jewelry made with love



I never have a shortage of jewelry, thanks to Karlee :-) These are earrings she made for me to wear as her maid-of-honor at her wedding in 2006.

Marble Photo Magnets

You can never have too many fridge magnets, and that's certainly the case with these teeny 3/4" DIY photo magnets.

I initially made magnets using family photos printed on my ink jet printer. Big mistake because the glue blurred and basically ate my images. The instructions at Not Martha call for silicon sealer, which may be gentler than the Modge Podge I purchased in my absent-mindedness. Printing on laser jet could be another solution.

To satiate my need for immediate gratification, I scoured my stack of magazines (glossy survives the Modge Podge) and found tons of cool images. My faves are the factory drawings lifted from a car ad.
