Pinterest Experiment #1

So it has been a month or so now that I've been following pinterest. Each time I get on I feel a my lack of creative juices wanting to grow. There are so many cute and fabulous ideas and I'm always at amazed at what people come up with. I almost always close pinterest with a greater desire to improve my life. Whether it is exercise, home decor, having a better positive out look in life, or just simply trying to be more creative. Well I finally found something that would be a challenge for me, cheap enough that I could buy the products without being too upset if I couldn't get it right, and still cute and something that I could be proud of accomplishing.

Well the day finally came that I felt motivated enough to get all the products from a small Jo Ann's in McMinnville. Once I brought the materials home I admit I was too scared for while for fear I would fail to even pull the products out of plastic bag they were placed in.

Eventually after sitting in the plastic bag I got up the nerve to try my new adventure of being a creative woman. Once I pulled everything out and pulled up the wed page that gave step to step instructions. It took me a few hours and though I know if or when I make more necklaces I will try a do things a little bit differently. I am quite proud of my creation, if I do say so myself. I wore it all day. And was like a little child showing her parents a drawing I had drawn at school that day. I showed Jake what I had created. He was kind and responded, though I know he could care less about the necklace. (His sisters and mother are known for their amazing craftiness. Which is probably part of the reason I was so distressed in trying to improve my lack of craftiness in the first place. LOL.) Any who I know it's not much, but I'm proud of it and can't wait to wear it to church this Sunday.
