About A Girl
/
I'm not the kind of girl who wears a lot of jewelry. My earlobes are so sensitive that I can't really wear earrings very often, and I find accessorizing to be so challenging that I usually just buy clothes with interesting prints and collars to avoid having to style myself. On occasion I do rock a big bib necklace, but that's only for fancy dress, so I was pretty excited when I found Martha Stewart's tutorial for making a more casual version from wooden beads. Her DIY employed all sorts of tools and wire, so I modified mine using only beads (1/2") and embroidery thread (that string art project is the gift that keeps on giving). I love the bit of red that peeks out between the wood grain. Here's the link to her original tutorial, I followed a very similar pattern. My photo tutorial is below... Have a happy weekend! xo, Heather
