Earrings

I love to make jewelry and this is my latest creation. I wrapper wire around a makeup remover bottle to get them in the loop shape. Then I wrapped three colors of embroidery floss (green, yellow, and orange) around the hoops and secured them at the tops. Then I tied the earring hooks to the hoops. Next I strung a small brown bead followed by a large wooden bead onto some orange embroidery floss. I tied the floss to the hoop so the wooden bead hung down in the middle. Viola!

Yay!

I've been a vegan for seventeen days! I'm proud of myself and although it's difficult at times, I've managed to keep it up and I hope to be a vegan for the rest of my life! Every now and again I make mistakes (I've eaten an English muffin that contained honey and I ate a piece of toast that had butter on it) but I'm not giving up. I feel happy and healthy and I'm so glad I've made the change to veganism. :)

Tunes

I've been really digging the song Crimson and Clover by Tommy James & The Shondells lately. It's been on repeat all day. I recommend you listen to it if you haven't already. Enjoy!
