Lately I’ve been seeing a softer, gentler stud, paired with bright candy colors for spring. For a refined look, you could add gold pyramid studs or smaller, rounded studs to a pastel-colored purse or pair of shoes.

Most of my craft supplies are in storage indefinitely, so I decided to make a tabletop terrarium because I had everything on hand except for the container, which [...]
Since I’ve been moving/sick/taking a break from the internet, I’ve missed a lot of great stuff lately. I’ve been trying to catch up a bit, though, and here are some of my favorite projects and links I’ve come across so far in 2012.

I’ve seen multiple cute internet ladies rocking glittery stars in their hair, so I decided to make my own version of this trend. It seems like the perfect accessory for all of the holiday parties and celebrations coming up!
Materials:
