day 59 pop tab bumble bee

Okay this one I do not like. The stripes on the bumble bee are not straight at all. Because I am getting the hang of macro photography it is even more clear.  O well, tomorrow an other change at making something.

My chainmaille skills came in very handy today. I used a chainmaille technique called european 4-in-1 to attach the pop tabs to each other. This was the result.


Also listed  2 of my former creations for this project in my shop


This one has been sold to one of my faithfull followers of this blog. Hope you will like it as much in person as in the picture :)


Also listed this bracelet in the 7 1/4 inch (18cm) and 8 1/4 inch (21 cm) version. You probably can see them in my etsy mini on the right side of my blog :)

How do you people like the tree bark I am using in the picture? I like the result myself.

day 56 smart phone case with pop tab mini buckle

I bought a sewing machine a year back. Stored it and never used it.  Today I decided to give it a go. This has taken up hours of my time. First it took me a while to get the sewing machine properly wired. After that i had to figure out how much material I needed. And then trying to sew itself. I took me 3 hours to get to this end result, but I made it. It even looks okay. Learned something new  today. The pop tab part is the belt buckle thingy in the middle :)
