There's apparently so much you can do with creativity. Jewelry can be endless. I make what I like. What I love. I'm happy with everything that I've done so far. Here is my version of the wire woven ring that I have completed and am absolutely happy with my end result! I can make it in other colors, I just haven't yet.

I like the way paracord bracelets look and the shambala bracelets too! Surprisingly enough they are extremely similar. So lucky for me! I figured it out a long with lots of other things I will soon show! Colors are extremely limited right now! Because I was unsure about it all, but now that I'm more confident. I'll probably be on the hunt for more colors! Plus it's the season for gifts, so I'm on a crafting spree. ^_^

I hope this will help you to be able to enjoy your purchase a little more.
I was looking for a great gift for the cousins and my nephew. Now a days with the kids wanting ipads and iphones, and anything thats over $400 its really hard to compete or afford anything like that!
This tablet at biglots was $78!! i did what research i could before purchasing and to be honest was pretty apprehensive on the purchase. All in all, i'm extremely happy with it. Perhaps i had little hope for it and that's why i'm pleased, but after fiddling with it and reading up on quite a few forums, i'm getting it to do what i want, without rooting. Even, little does my nephew know as he's testing this out and playing with it, its his.
Its not an iPad for sure. I didn't have to root it. I've successfully installed amazon appstore, netflix, and youtube. So far there is no issues with any. Netflix doesn't have a big lag like some users i've read had and i didn't have to do that update that others had. The amazon app i had issues with from the one downloaded through the amazon website. At first i would log on fine, use it for 10 minutes and then after that when going back to the app after leaving it shortly i would only get a black screen, with a search bar at the top. Nothing worked. I then had to delete all data, then log back in. Annoying, much?
If you're looking for it to do just these little things, and you're not computer savvy like others. (i've never rooted anything in my life) Also, with rooting comes issues like jailbreaking, and i'd rather stay away from the hassle and issues i've read that others have had after rooting. I do know that some don't have the same issues, its different with everyone. I just get to stay away from it all.
what i did was had to search for *.apk files of the programs but slightly older versions for the tablet. after that everything worked perfect for me. I did copy all files over and then install. I am not responsible for anything that you do decide to do though, if you take my advice.
Amazon Appstore
Youtube
Netflix
Slideme Appstore - you have to unzip before you copy over.
I hope this helps anyone out there who wants to enjoy their cheap purchase to make it just that much more worth while!
We didn't have very much room for a crib or toddler bed when Zoey was born. So we opted to use a play pen or now-a-days is called a "pack n' play." it worked out fine till we figured out she hates being confined in it. I began to look for convertible cribs or toddler beds and they're just as expensive! So I wondered if I made it, would it be any better or cheaper!?
I love projects! I love DIY! (although I get sad when my DIY doesn't turn out pretty.)
This is what resulted after my search and I'm quite happy with the results! Not only does it fit perfectly where her pack n' play was but it looks cute and was extremely affordable!!!
Luckily my brother decided to put this part together, so I didn't have to!
This is where I came in. Stuffed the outside with batting.
Covered it with upholstery fabric. I chose a soft fabric too.
And voilà!!
Sooooo QQ!!!
You can get instructions from Design Mom. This actually only cost me about $18 because we had all the wood laying around. We have a fairly local fabric store that was pretty cheap. For her bed I only used 1 1/2 yards at approximately $4/yard. The batting was $8 (i had a coupon) from Joann's Fabric and I used 2 yards.

I love food! And to top it off, a great view!? Yay! Takami sushi in downtown LA. Very modern, chic, and cozy. Does that make sense? I'm not a critic. It was good to me. I loved the fusion of the food and tastes.

I decided to dabble tonight.
I had the opportunity to go to a "gem faire" and although as much as I would love to blog about it with photos and such, I can't. They don't allow photography of any kind in there. There were many vendors and boy did they have things to sell! Gems!! Rocks!! All sorts of goodies!!! I didn't get to spend all the time in the world there but I came out with some stuff. Here is the first of many or.. the first of few. LOL. Enjoy.

Couples need love too. I never really thought of making a couples necklace till someone suggested it and then I decided to make it a little different.
Instead of just straight across I figured i could make it multiple lines. Also, I could give it the appearance of chaining it to the other name.
So here it is, couples necklace chained together. You could also think of it as two names, linked my chains, love, bound to one another, your pick.

I've seen it a couple times but not so much. I've been wanting to make an EKG something and at the request of a friend it was all game from there. I figured I really can now. So off I ventured.
My EKG also known as "skip a beat" necklace and ring set. I love it!
It's different from the norm that I've seen. Its points are sharper than any other ive seen and it's hammered down to have a flat look just as you would see on the monitor.
It spikes up and down as your heart does, emotions, and life.
If life didn't have ups and downs, bumps, challenges, or obstacles you might as well be dead.

It's really sad how we take things for granted. Or think less of quality unless we pay a higher prices.
Several years ago, I came across this artist who I thought was amazing. His stuff is kinda on the dark side, but his work is amazing. All the things aren't dark, but it definitely makes me wonder where he came up with this stuff and what's going on in there!!! He makes me LOL! I definitely thought that when I went through the Tim Burton Exhibit.

When I take photos, I tend to go trigger happy! =D it's okay! You're bound to get several good shots and sometimes that's all you need. Not only that people may not like what you chose and choose a different shot. Sometimes it sucks, but it's okay. "to each their own," right? I use different poses and shots for me and the person I shoot for choose the ones they like. Sometimes, I get to choose the ones I send to them.
I have to take just as many shots when a kid happens to be a part of the picture.
I did a shoot for my friends and their son,or should I put sun. Technically they do revolve around him. Lol.
It was a lot of fun and he was an absolutely adorable little guy.
P.S. I'm still working on poses. I think that's a work in progress, but I like it to be as natural as possible. I'm not shooting an exotic super model, although they are my super models for the day! I'll have to elaborate more on this another day.
