My one year blogiversary is February 15!
It's been a year of learning I'll tell ya!
I've gone from being so busy that I couldn't keep up to being totally blank and not having a clue as to what to write or post about to where I am now... I believe I've found a happy medium. I believe I've learned that I'm not one of those bloggers that can post every day with a new project every day. I've realized too that a daily post is not a requirement. Really? Yep, it's true.
With all this learning I would like to share with you my friends, my readers for sticking it out with me. :)
I do all sorts of crafts. I bead ornaments. I make pine needle baskets. I sew. I crochet. I had a hard time trying to decide what it was I wanted to share with you. I came across this pattern that I downloaded from Bead & Button some time ago. I thought, "This will be PERFECT!"
It has crystals on one side and pearls on the other side.
So... in my FIRST EVER attempt of jewelry you get to benefit from!
I showed it to several of my friends and they've all said, "It's beautiful!" (I fear my pictures will not have the same effect.)
You can use the pendant with a pin and wear it on your lapel.
You can add a chain or a cord and wear it as a necklace. If you'd like to bead your own chain to go with the pendant I have made the bail big enough that you should be able to easily get other beads through it. I will include the cord shown with the pendant.
Or you can even use a needle as I have in this photo! LOL
The bottom bead has a dragon that wraps around it so you can use this as a reminder that you received this pendant in the Year of the Dragon! :)
The white lanyard is glow-in-the-dark and there's orange, pink, and a reddish-glittery one.
What a sweet guy!
To qualify it will be quite easy.
Follow Me ON LINKY FOLLOWERS and leave a comment below stating that you have done that. Linky Followers is FREE! :) You do NOT have to have a blog to join Linky Followers either! Isn't that a great alternative?!
Linky Followers Blog states:
"As you’ve probably heard, the popular Google Friend Connect
(“GFC”) is going away March 1st for non-Google blog platforms like
WordPress, and the scuttlebutt is that it will be eventually phased out
completely to be replaced by Google+. GFC was never really so much an
“I follow this blog” tool as it was an attempt at the whole Facebook
“friend, like” concept.
Bloggers need a good “follower” tool and one that is not tied to a
million other services (seems like Facebook, Twitter and Google are
linked to everything else on the Internet). It needs to be simple,
fast, easy-to-use and reliable."
Should you like to share this with friends let me know in a separate comment and you can have a bonus entry.
