Bird Nest Stamped and Braided Hemp Bracelet

04/11/2014

Bird Nest Stamped and Braided Hemp Bracelet at www.happyhourprojects.com

Well I couldn't resist another bird-themed stamped project with Beaducation's "Be an original" contest.  I just couldn't.  It's a challenge that's metal stamping. That has Adrianne written all over it. Or maybe stamped all over it, like so. What do you think?  (If you like it, you ...

Hello, and welcome! I'm Adrianne, an artist, author, designer, and blogger in mid Michigan. I work from home, chase my two kids, and this once-city-girl is learning how to care for chickens and adjusting to life out in the country. I have a compulsion for daily creativity... sometimes it's jewelry-making, paper crafting, metal stamping, mixing and baking, or giving new life to recycled items. But with 2 young kids, time is short! My goal here at Happy Hour Projects is to share projects and tips that you can do in an hour or less. The ideas you find here are designed to add a little creativity in your day, no matter how much (or how little) time you have!
