Magazine Bead Earrings

I wanted to share my new jewelry making adventure with you all! I've been dabbling here and there with making jewelry for "fun" ever since Christmas when my grandma came for a visit, she makes everything and jewerly is something she taught me I seemed to like and "pick" up on! Well lately I haven't been doing much, really because there isn't enough hours in the day! Recently my dear friend Christina taught me that accents/accessories really make your outfit lovely! On my 9 hour trip home from our trip to the Keys I decided to make these beads from one of my fav blogs (Frugal Family Fun) ... Lets just say in 9 hrs you can have plenty of beads (Thank goodness I brought along magazines from home!) I decided to make these earrings, I think they are too cute! Don't ya'll? Even though the colors don't match EXACTLY, I think they make a statement! I have many more different colors I am wanting to makie, I think a yellow pair will be gorgeous, and my next dabble will be newspaper beads, what a statement that'll make!

the pictures just don't do justice, I think this is picture number 105 I took, and I just can't get a stunning picture! But they are pretty dern cute in my ears, and Lu is begging for a pair, I think I will have to make those ones less dangle like!
