Affordable accessories, and custom clothing!! Yay for etsy!

I love accessorizing! Headbands, jewelry, earrings, necklaces!
I have been making my own for a bit now, and etsy has just completely blown my mind with ideas.
My etsy shop ( Confident Crafts) is expanding its inventory, and the founder and I are going insane with excitement!

When I was a seller on eBay, there was no way to sell handmade items, custom clothing, custom accessories, etc., because it was just overloaded with brand names- not the ideal place for handmade, one of a kind products.

I have finally had the time to sit down and spend time on Confident Crafts- and so many new things are coming!

I just can't wait to get it all listed!

Just started making these awesome headbands, and I'm going to make dozens! Can't wait!

 
This is an up cycled headband- made from an old tie. Now one of my MANY hobbies is up cycling!!!


Want a new awesome hobby? Here is a list of Affordable Hobbies!
 
Happy accessorizing!!

Sewing for Beginners!

Hey hey, Ladies and Gents!
I've been getting obsessed with sewing now that my studio has 2 sewing machines and a mannequin named "Susie". She's just visiting; she'll be home with Madame Starlett soon enough!

I've been sewing my own pieces- shirts, skirts, dresses, and so on; without using any patterns.

Opened up my first sewing pattern (Vintage, of course) and had no idea HOW to go about starting it. I don't know if it was because the pattern was from the 60's, or because I have gotten used to just going at it!

So I found a wonderful FREE site for Sewing (for beginners, seasoned veterans, and everywhere in between). It walks you through everything step-by-step.

Check it out, and get addicted!

No instalol?!

Help out here

I'm sorry to say there will be no instalol of the week today, instead, I'll let you know what's been going on. My father is battling prostate cancer, and things have been rough. So above is the link to my campaign, any donations, or even sharing with your friends would be greatly appreciated....
