Mommy & Me Craft Time: Vintage Beads into Bracelets

Over the Valentine's Day weekend we took

a trip to the Adirondacks. It. Was. Frigid.

 

As a back up plan to going outside

to play, a friend and I entertained

our little girls by making bracelets

using a mix of old and new beads.

 

 

A Mommy and Me project if you will.

 

 

 

The kind of project that never seems to get

old. Especially when sorting through all

of our containers filled with beads from

necklaces that, over time, had broken down.

 

Now, re-made into something new!

 

My Sweetpea must think like me.

We both used one large bead 

as the focal point.

 

I love how she used

so many pastels.

 

Just two peas in a pod.

 

Or is that beads in a pod?

 

Either way...

 

Cherishing these years.

I realize they go by very fast.

 

I'm glad we had some fun

together, with friends, 

making jewelry from old beads.

 

 

and by the way, this was

me buzzin' around on the

lake with our snowmobile.

Can now scratch that off

 of my "bucket list!"
