Crafting ideas galore

Here are some pictures that I have taken surreptitiously on my call phone of things that have inspired some craft ideas.

This geode necklace would be exceptionally easy to make yourself. Geodes can be bought in many natural history or science museum gift shops.

I'm not sure how inspiring this is to the rest of you, but to me, it seemed like a unique idea for a pair of earrings. This would probably be easily made at a bead shop in a matter of an hour or so.

I know that this picture didn't turn out all that well (I was trying to take the picture quickly so as not to call attention to what I was doing), but I the point is that the ring is simply a cheap thing that you can buy in a bead store. The top of the ring is flat and you can buy rings with different sizes of surfaces for attaching. Then, you can glue on a button (which I am thinking of doing with some of my Grandma's buttons) or a coin, or whatever you'd like.

I love this idea. It is so simple and yet so useful! It is just a frame with wire hung between two sides, which you can use to hang earrings from. I think that it would be really cool to do this using reclaimed wood or to use "new" wood and antique it (http://www.ehow.com/how_17669_give-furniture-antique.html).

I think I saw this at Old Navy. It just looks like a shirt with a handle! How easy!

Alright, I'm off for now. But before I go, I was thinking that I would like to try using some sort of photo transfer for the tile coasters that I had made. If anyone knows anything about the process or tools, let me know!

Toodleloo!
