Three Days of Fun

I'm behind in my postings but that doesn't mean that I was behind in my crafting!
Three days worth of goodies here.

Day 9- Another Embellished Friendship Bracelet.
Following the steps as I did in this post I chose not to add the rhinestone embellishment and button clasp. This time I wanted to try adding a brass chain to the friendship bracelet. I must admit that I like this look far better than my first rhinestone friendship bracelet. I think the rhinestone look would be better if my knotted friendship bracelet was a bit wider than it was.

The tricky part for me was getting the yarn long enough to sew the chain to the bracelet. I just can't seem to judge the length quite yet. Cut it too short to finish sewing the rest of the chain. Had to cut it and sew it on again.

Something I did differently than the tutorial was that I added a clasp to the chain. That way I'm not tying the bracelet to my arm, but clasping it like a regular bracelet.
Day 10- Baked S'mores!

The best thing about camping is pitching the tent, hiking, being outdoors, bugs definitely is sitting around the campfire and making s'mores. But with this recipe you no longer have to endure the wilderness to get this gooey treat. That's right folks, s'mores indoors. (and I don't mean roasted in your fireplace either).

When I saw this pin and read the recipe I think I instantly drooled.


 Yes they were tasty!

Day 11- Fun Nail Art!

Watermelon Toes!
Nail art is all over Pinterest. I see people all the time pinning their dazzling nails. What I don't understand is how they can paint their right hand without it looking like a 4 year-old doing it? Now that's talent.

I've seen some pretty cute nail pins. Leopard print, stripes, fish, hearts, and even watermelon. This reminded me of when I had a nail art book once and my sister and I used to paint our toes. It was fun being toe creative!

Now I'm a horrible fingernail biter. So this  art design has to be done on the toes. At least it's still sandal season!
