Today I made a very special Rosary bracelet.  I made the beads myself with dried flowers I saved from my father's funeral.  I came out so great - I posted it on CharmsofFaith.etsy.com.  I only need a few petals to make a bracelet.  You can use wedding flowers, etc., to make a very special and personal bracelet.   I am going to be making a page on my blog with pictures of my process.  I made two different ones, one with links and one with beads in between.  I LOVE them!!

My Hot Pink Valentine Scarf

I posted this today!  It is knitted and felted.  The hearts are actually felted into the wool by using small heart shapes (i used wooden shapes) and attached very tightly with tiny rubber bands before felting.  It's trickier than it looks!  It's warm, soft and fuzzy.... and HOT pink!!

My new shop on Etsy - Charms of Faith

Yeah!  I finally opened my new shop today!  So far I posted 9 items, more to be coming soon.  I will upload some pictures.  I made the cutest little angels today, out of wire and pearls.  I think I had a dream about them.  When I woke up, the image was in my mind and I ran down to make one.  I LOVE them!!
