Earrings


So...My camera did not want to focus yesterday. 
Sorry for the horrible photos.  
I made these earrings for my cousin's graduation present. I made another pair but you couldn't even tell what they looked like in the photos so I won't bother putting it up.  I'm going to try to get better pics of these later!!  
These were a lot harder to make than I thought they would be.  It took a lot of beads falling off and breaking wires, but I think that it was worth it!

Origami Favor Boxes!


When I hear the word Origami I automatically think of cranes. 
 Instead I found out how to make these cute boxes. 

These boxes don't require any glue or tape at all, and are perfect for favors or candy holders at parties.  You can even fold up two ends and connect them, and fold down the two other ends to make a cute little basket.

The Jellybean paper is from the Sweet Stack from DCWV.

The lined paper is from the Latte Stack from DCWV.
The paper was a little too thick for this project. I'll have to find the right type through trial and error. 
  I can't wait to make more!!
