Have a wonderful Holiday! Be Safe!
To all military and families thank you!
Hello Everybody!
I just wanted to drop a quick line because I have been super busy making new stuff for my Etsy store.
I created a new line called Glitter Junk! It started off as just a fun project for myself. I love glitter and have been really into it this season. I wanted glittery jewelry that was not to child like, but I couldn’t find exactly what I wanted. So I decided to make my own!
I loved it so much and received so many compliments I decided to make a bunch for the Etsy site.
These charms are so fun and really pretty. They sparkle at every angle and have an awesome 3D effect. Each one takes about 3 days to make and every one is unique.
My favorite part of crafting is having an idea or vision in my head and then actually fabricating it into something real. Working with resin is kind of a challenge, especially when working in a small space.
In the end, I am super happy with how they came out….too happy, its hard to part with them. Me and sparkly go hand in hand!
I would love to know what you think! They are at https://www.etsy.com/shop/SugarBeetCrafts
more items coming soon.
I hope you enjoy!

4 out of 5 read-ologists recommend this WordPress.com site. ups and downs of writer's insanity and day to day life. I will write whatever makes the voices happy, for a writer that ignores her inner voices is merely a mental breakdown waiting to happen. Keeping the voices happy and creating new worlds for them to play in is my main goal.
