necklaces

lately i have been buying a lot of beads. and metal findings. for necklaces. i don't wear a lot of jewelry, but i've discovered that i like to make it. i have given a lot of finished necklaces away, before i got the chance to take a picture of them. so if you have one, you could take a photo of it and send it to me, if you so desire. :)
anyway, here are some of the latest creations...

btw

i actually had a lot of fun designing my blog banner (see above) using a free digital scrapbook kit from shabby princess and the free photo editing software paint.net! i'm not really that into scrapbooking, but i love looking at all the cute stuff. i figured since it was free i would try it. not having any photo software experience whatsoever, it took me awhile to figure out how to use it. photoshop may be easier, but i wouldn't know. i don't want to spend that much money on it either. so if you want to try it out, feel free. cause it's free. :)
