Last Friday morning I was rushing around trying to get all packed by 11:15. Darin's sister was going to show up and we were headed out to Idaho. Well you know how it goes. We didn't end up leaving until about 1pm. Since I was all packed I had a few minutes to spare so I made some rings!
I got these ring blanks at Michaels a couple of months ago on clearance. My metal glue was dried up so I had to use hot glue. First up was a large scrapbooking brad.
Since hot glue doesn't work too well with metal and metal I cut a small felt square and poked the brad through. Then I folded up the prongs so they didn't show.
I hotglued it to the ring blank and that was it. Easy peasy. Well that took about 2 minutes so I made some more!
The middle one is a singed flower. I used black satin and 3 small black beads. This one took a couple minutes longer but not much.
I also did some large covered buttons. Ta da! Four rings in about 10 minutes isn't too bad. And for seriously like 50 cents each you can't go wrong!
I love love these rings. So cute. I can't believe it only took you 10 minutes to make. It would've taken me 20 minutes to figure out how to do one, and that's if I had some help. :) I love your stuff.
ReplyDeleteVery cute rings! you are so talented!
ReplyDeleteSo cute! And I have to say that I always have that problem with metal glue. It dries up on me. But I haven't seen it around in stores lately, so I haven't been able to stock up. I wonder if you found it at Michaels or Joannes? hmmm, I'll have to check again...
