Studs

I love wearing earrings, but I mostly wear little studs. They seem to be more convenient and go with my clothing and style a little better. Also with a little one it is nice to know she is less likely to pull on a stud versus hoop earrings or ones that dangle.
I'm a true southern girl and wear my pearls a lot, but outside of that it was hard for me to find studs that weren't just diamonds or pearls. There aren't a lot of options that are cute and different, so I made my own.
Here's how they turned out....

Teal and Bronze Flowers

Greek Blue

I'm sure I'll be making more earrings in the future.

A Few Things I've Made

Here are a few things I've made over the last year. Mostly these things were made for Emma, but that just makes them all that much more special. Gift giving becomes a lot more fun when its homemade too!

Emma's Mobile

It's a Girl Wreath, used at the hospital and on our front door when we came home.

A New Blog

As my other blog, Working Title, has become so much about our growing family (which I love!) I decided to start a new blog that was devoted to things I'm creating/crafting. I do love my family so much and having a blog helps other friends and family keep up with us. I also really enjoy making things. Whether I'm taking something old and making it new, or sewing or gluing (hence the title of this blog) I would love to share those things too!
Mostly I'll be posting finished projects, but sometimes I'll post some step by step projects too. In my next post I'll put a few things that I've already finished, just to catch up. Then I'll begin posting as I create.
I've always loved to make things. When I was little I loved to color and then I realized how much I liked to cook. Just recently I learned how to sew (still learning) and I'm always excited to make more and learn more. I'm constantly inspired by people and places around me. I hope this blog might inspire some of you!
