A craft and hobby blog that showcases some of our work with various hobby crafts. We are also members of Ornament Thursday so we post all our wonderful ornaments here too for you to see.
To me, wooden beads are packets of promise. They are wonderfully inexpensive and there is so much you can do with them. Here I have covered them with fuzzy wool and added little sequins to decorate them. The process is pretty easy and you can coordinate your newly knitted scarf with a matching bracelet or necklace.
The project appeared in a recent issue of Get Creative magazine. Click here to find out how to make your own version, step by step.

Confession time. I really have a bit of a hard time with macramé so projects like this tend to get away from me a bit. I’m ok for the first few knots then my brain over thinks the process and I can’t remember whether I am going over or under. Call me Macramé challenged.
However, I love macramé bracelets so I designed this one for Get Creative magazine. I had to get some help actually turning my ideas into reality, so Michelle who, by the way rocks at macramé helped out. I measured and told her exactly what I needed and I started the main loop. Then she kindly removed the string from my hands, nodded sagely and began knotting away. Magically the bracelet materialized just as planned.
If you’re a dab hand at macramé or want to learn, here is the link to the project and the full instructions.
