Cross Stitch Yells Love


Now I'm a free bird and going to wring every second of creative enjoyment. I fond of cross stitching since I had a cross stitch class in middle school. It's obviously simpler than embroidery. Then cross stitching becomes one of my hobbies I usually do in my spare time. As time goes by I want to make a display of it in a box frame in order to see it anytime I want without opening the drawer to see them one by one, or simply say for the sake of my cross stitch exhibition. This could be a nice gift idea as well. I put some pictures to make it more alive and interesting to stare at, just like the festive pop-up cards. There are still more but I'm going to post the three of my collections, I can say that it's a love trilogy cross stitch, haha!

Hanging Shoes on Your Neck


Welcome to my DIY statement necklace post! It seems like I never let my childhood - 90's memories gone completely, because I'm gonna use my Barbie doll shoes as pendants for the necklace. So here we go. The steps are so easy to follow. I need less than one meter jewelry chain, a bunch of jump rings, a closure, and jewelry plier. I used black chain to give contrast from those neon colored shoes.

  
First, create a small hole on the side of shoes by piercing it by a pushpin. 


Then attach the closure to the chain. I used lobster claw type because it's the easiest closure to find in my place.


Attach the shoes to the chain by getting it threaded with jump rings using jewelry plier. Next, keep adding on shoes.


And finally, I'm so ready to wear my new quirky necklace!
