Beaded Bar Connector Necklace

04/03/2014

Easy Beaded Bar Necklace at www.happyhourprojects.com

I'm loving this necklace so much that I've been choosing outfits to match it so I can wear it.  Is that crazy, given how much jewelry I make??  I just love these beads, I love the colors, and I love how it came together (and in just 10 minutes).  Okay, I'll stop gushing "love" and just let you see ...

Simple Heart Choker Necklace

03/27/2014

I spotted these cute ceramic beads in an Etsy shop I worked with recently (I'll bet telling you more about O and N's ceramic beads next week - I got some really beautiful Greek beads from Tina's shop), and knew exactly what I wanted to make - I've had an idea for a simple choker necklace for a while ...

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!
