In the words of my pal Rachel, if out of all the craft nights we have and this is our only fail, I am pretty happy with that! Craft night is something Rachel and I do at least once a month but if we are really good we can squeeze in two. This time was her turn to choose and she sent me this knotted necklace project. I agreed that it looked cute and easy! What I didn't realize was that in order to make a necklace as long as she did, one would need a lot of fabric. We attempted with 44 inches...not enough! The end product was very reminiscent of an 80s elementary school teacher... or as I like to refer to it as "country".
But I may be getting too far ahead of myself... here is the process:
So I guess it didn't work out like we had planned but as always we had a great time! Oh well, better luck next time!
Me sewing the "tube" of fabric
Rachel doing the worst part of the craft, turning the tube right side out
Terrible stuff! This took way longer than it should have!
My "necklace"
Unfortunately, I forgot to snap a picture of me in mine...but Rachel was kind enough to model the necklace version of our country creation...and a few other ideas we found for it!
The necklace... more of a choker...
The ever stylish headband

I like it as a head band!
