I put together this necklace using metallic beads, glass beads and oh those big beads used to be a Cheerios box. My husband hates when I make these beads because I seal them with clear nail polish.<br />

You know that I kept one for me (not pictured since I was wearing it, love this bracelet). This tutorial is from the wonderful Anne of Wobisobi

So far I have made these, the picture is using the front of the rule book, money and a matte. I used a Dollar Store frame that I spray painted blue. I used the money to make paper beads and paired it with a token from the game and pearls to make a sweet little bracelet that I think I will give to a friend's daughter when the challenge is over.</div>

The glass beads were $2 or so at Wal*mart and the focal (also from Wal*mart) was $3 so a pretty cheap project. I already had the paper painted copper ready to go from another project so I only had to roll the beads and finish them <a href="http://www.favecrafts.com/Bracelets/Recycled-Paper-Bag-Bracelets">http://www.favecrafts.com/Bracelets/Recycled-Paper-Bag-Bracelets</a> and as always I recommend a Krafti Roller for the beads <a href="http://justjenndesignz.blogspot.com/2009/02/rolled-paper-beads.html">http://justjenndesignz.blogspot.com/2009/02/rolled-paper-beads.html</a>. I also had the findings on hand (jump rings, closure and crimps).<br />

<span style="text-align: start;">I was a little intimidated by this contest when they first started talking about it. I went back and forth on whether I should enter or not. There was a lot of talk about toothbrushes O.o I entered anyway and I am excited about the first contest. We are supposed to take a game that we get for cheap and make something crafty from it. My first thought was Monopoly and I happened to find a Spongebob one that the lady who is selling it to me is letting me have for cheap. What will I create? Stay tuned!</span>

I bet you have everything to make it. You need beads (I used what I had on hand, some purple Czech beads, metallic plastic beads and glass pearls), a brooch and stretchy stringing material and maybe some glue. I am about to make another one, I love this one so much! I had these brooches that my mom gave me and used one of them (so far) to make a bracelet I will wear often. Here is the tutorial from the talented Oskana B, this girl is amazing. </div>

A lot of times when you win, you get items that you would like to have, but haven't bought yet. This is the case with my winnings from Pick Your Plum hosted by The Answer is Chocolate. Check out what I got :) <b>SQUEAL</b>! I have been wanting buttons, bottlecaps, thread, hair clippies, cabochons (stay tuned for a bracelet with these), I can always use ribbon, love those cupcake liners. I am thinking about giving away the earrings since big earrings don't look good on me, the pearl necklace and the puzzle. I haven't ever used washi tape. A very nice haul indeed.

So I settled for Cherry that I already had at the house. My wool yarn that I got from Goodwill was yellow but I read this does not matter as long as it is a light color, it will overdye. BTW, this is Cool Splashers brand so it doesn't need to be name brand.<br />
<br />

Overdye it did.</div>

I call them my Bipolar dolls. I call them this because even though they are made from the same socks, they are different in how they look and their emotions. The last two sets were made for my friend Melanie, who said "I need these dolls in my life". Use the larger sizes for bigger dolls, smaller sizes for smaller dolls. I got the socks for $1 (3 pack) at the Dollar Tree and that makes two dolls. I got the "pattern" to make these from this website <a href="http://tearosehome.blogspot.com/2012/05/link-party-no79-dollar-store-sock-dolls.html">http://tearosehome.blogspot.com/2012/05/link-party-no79-dollar-store-sock-dolls.html</a><br />

I just used items on hand to make their hair/faces. I am making beds for some of them out of clementine crates. Updates soon!<br />

<br /></div>
I made these using a scalloped punch that I got from Michael's for 40% off. I used my coupon for 50% off on the chains that I got for the necklace and the bracelet. The bead are crackle glass beads that I got a while back from Fire Mountain Gems. The necklace and earrings have two sides, I glued the pieces together using Loctite for cement and metal and clamped them. The small hole punch can be bought at Michael's or Hobby Lobby.<br />

You can get them at 7-11 literally all day long for $.99 a can and you get a lot of tea, and plus it tastes good. I usually get a couple at a time. I got a 3/4" hole punch from Michael's today and they were 40% off so I got to use my 50% off coupon on something else. Chris calls it a Gypsy Bracelet because it is shiny and is made from metal disks that make a jingling sound. It is a really cool bracelet. I can't take credit for this, I saw it on Etsy from Sodacangirl <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/50573573/soda-can-bracelet-arizona-green-tea?ref=sr_gallery_2&ga_search_query=arizona+tea+can+bracelet&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_ship_to=US&ga_min=0&ga_max=0&ga_search_type=all">http://www.etsy.com/listing/50573573/soda-can-bracelet-arizona-green-tea?ref=sr_gallery_2&ga_search_query=arizona+tea+can+bracelet&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_ship_to=US&ga_min=0&ga_max=0&ga_search_type=all</a><br />

I am always finding new ornaments to make and I love decorating my tree. I usually put my tree up after Halloween. Here is a picture of the tree from last year. I made the tree skirt too, and the little sock snowman. Here is how to make the snowmen <a href="http://smallfryandco.blogspot.com/2010/01/sock-snowman-tutorial.html">http://smallfryandco.blogspot.com/2010/01/sock-snowman-tutorial.html</a> and the Christmas Tree skirt <a href="http://dollarstorecrafts.com/2011/12/tutorial-overdyed-patchwork-tree-skirt-win-every-color-of-rit-dye/">http://dollarstorecrafts.com/2011/12/tutorial-overdyed-patchwork-tree-skirt-win-every-color-of-rit-dye/</a> in case you were interested.<br />

I painted them teal because I think that they will match my black Christmas tree and most of my ornaments on it are purple (my fave color). I need to get more clothespins, three doesn't seem like enough even though they are rather large and my tree is small. I set it on my dining room table to keep it away from my dog and cats.<br />
<br />
I also made these right after Christmas, with my abundant supply of sheet music paper and some glass ornaments I picked up for $.50 a box at Dollar Tree (half off after Christmas). That cute little bell was made by a co-worker for me years ago. Here is the tutorial to make them <a href="http://www.iheartnaptime.net/sheet-music-craft/">http://www.iheartnaptime.net/sheet-music-craft/</a><br />

I was paired up with Amy from My Little One Room Schoolhouse <a href="http://littleoneroomschoolhouse.blogspot.com/">http://littleoneroomschoolhouse.blogspot.com/</a> I made Peter Pan and Wendy necklaces since she likes thimbles. I also made a Peter Pan card and engraved her name on a wooden jewelry box and stained it. Sorry no pics.<br />

On his shell he holds the earth<br />
If you want to run and play<br />
Come along the BEAM today".<br />
<br />
I love Stephen King, and Chris (my husband) is reading The Dark Tower series which I read a long time ago. This in an awesome series of books that connects all of his books and characters and is a story about Roland of Gilead and some companions that he picks up along the way and his/their quest for the Dark Tower. There is a sigul of a turtle in it and he says that it (this necklace) reminds me of it. This is just like this necklace <a href="http://www.favecrafts.com/Pendants/Glitter-Bread-Dough-Pendant">http://www.favecrafts.com/Pendants/Glitter-Bread-Dough-Pendant</a>, free form the turtle (or whatever shape you like). I would have made him green but I didn't even know I was going to make a turtle, I intended to make a star. Instead of piercing the turtle (which I couldn't do) I glued a jump ring to it with E6000. The paper beads are made from rose print tissue paper from the Dollar Tree.<br />

<span style="text-align: -webkit-auto;">How do you guys like my Marvin the Martin watch? This is an old watch that I had that my ex-husband gave me. It is one of the few things I kept that he gave me. I lost one of the pins that holds the watch band on and I fixed it with a jump ring and E6000 glue. I made links with beads left over from another project. It just needs a new battery.</span>

I made the necklace from Preciosa purple beads made into links. The black beads with caps are sold as links and I got everything, including the chain from Fire Mountain Gems and Beads. I just checked and the black beads are no longer available, as they were a closeout item. I did see some other links that would work, though. I love this necklace. It was simple to make as some of the work is done for you.</div>
