Colorful Multilayered Bracelets

I don't know, but lately, I've been obsessing on cute and colorful stuff. Unlike the College days when I am too cautious when it comes to colors and I opted for blacks and grays. One of the trends that have caught my attention are the very cute and colorful multilayered bracelets I saw in some Korean online stores. (Not a fan of Kpop, but I so adore Korean Fashion. It's like they have the cutest stuff on earth! Haha!) Well, as soon as I saw them on the internet, I grabbed my supply box and got any materials I could use. I have my transparent elastic craft cord, 4 sets of beads and voila!! My very cute bracelet. I love that it's so colorful, I could wear them with any clothes or shoe color.

So cute together... :)

You can wear all or just 3 or 2 or 1, totally up to you :)

DIY Box Organizer

I have decided last night that I need to clean my shoe rack. It looked so full and unorganized. With all those shoes ang boxes, it felt so crowded. And so i decided to get rid of the boxes which occupies most of the space. And success! Now the problem is, where to put these boxes, i got 10 boxes total. I was gonna throw away 3 which are not in good shape anymore. But what will i di with the rest? The first idea was to make them my charger organizer. I wrapped them up with old gift wraps from last christmas. And here it is. I made 2 for now for my sun glasses and chargers.

Black Crocheted Collar Necklace

I have posted the first collar necklace i made, (Mind you, I did not follow any pattern for that, I think, I am improving in my crocheting skills). I also posted a photo on my FB page and surprisingly, many liked it. yeahiiy!!! I let my sister borrow it and she wore it to work. Here's the exciting part! Her office mates liked it and ordered some. I did not expect I can even earn from this. but this time here's the photo of the first collar necklace I sold. I'm just soo happy. I have sold several PERSONALIZED collars now. They decide what color combinations to use so I'd say it's personalized. :D I haven't written a pattern yet, but if ever anyone's interested to know, just send me an email and I'll try my best to make one. wehehe...

My first client wanted her collar black. I just added some beads and a cute button on the center.

Trendy Collar Necklace My way :)

Collar Necklace/detachable collar is a trend right now. I've seen some celebs wear it and I definite like how it adds a nice touch to a get up.You can wear a plain shirt/blouse and make it fab by wearing a collar necklace. Of course, being frugal does not mean being out of style. I decided I'd have to have at least one. Well, after some research on the net, I found I can have not just one, but as many as want. (Actually, as many as I can "make". But no, I am not buying. One collar usually costs 200-400 PHP, (not including shipping) and there is no way I am paying that amount for a collar.

I learned how to crochet just last year. And I would say, It is sooo addicting! haha. I can't stop sometimes. I am still not a pro, but I was able to make good stuff from the hobby. One of them is my very first collar necklace. Instead of spending 400 Pesos for the collar It only cost me 20 pesos for the 12 peso yarn and some beads for the necklace. All you need to invest is the skill and a little time w/ patience :). This took me less than an hour to make. So I'd say, it's best to try crafts sometimes. It will save you a lot!! For those who knows how to crochet, congratulations!! :)

See the photos of my very first crocheted collar necklace.

Vintage effect :)
