enJOY it

an archived personal and craft blog from Elise Blaha Cripe.

I'll be honest, I don't even know what number M&G30 project I'm on right now. My "hmmm, 2015 might be a slow year" turned into a "just kidding it's 100x a crazy year" when I found out there would be a baby coming in November and a business to keep rolling at the same time. It's all good though. Worst case scenario I'll be making and giving something everyday of next February to hit my birthday deadline.

But this necklace!

I was dreaming about a painted wood bead necklace since I came up with Ellerie's rainbow birthday party. But as of two weeks ago, I hadn't yet made it to the craft store for beads and chord, so I was pretty thrilled to stumble on this necklace kit. I'm not usually a "craft kit person" but after this experience, I might become one. It was just too easy.

There were also TWO sets of necklaces in the kit! One for me and one for me to make for you! So two rainbow necklaces were made. The original is most likely on Ellerie's neck right now and the other I'll ship anywhere in the world.

COMMENTS CLOSED, winner announced tomorrow. 🙂 thanks!

    I loved this necklace! If I’m not mistaken, you’re in 7/30 of Make&Give. At this pace, by the end of February it’ll be about 20/30. Not bad at all in MHO.

    Phew! For a second I thought you were actually giving away the necklace you wore on her birthday and I thought “No! You’re going to want that someday!!” Haha, clearly you’ve got that covered. 🙂 Love the necklace!

    Too cute. We’re due with baby girl in October, so I’d love to save it for her. And until then, we could hang it in her room.
