what i've been working on.

i've been feeling really productive lately, and i think it's because i've been working on so many different projects all at once. and i'm thinking that maybe this is the way i need to work from now on; rather than just focusing on just bullet necklaces for example, i'll work on bullet necklaces, feather earrings, and sewing tote bags all at once! in addition to making things for my shop, i've also been in a cleaning out and semi-organizing mood. i've gone through my drawers and closet and made a blog with some clothes and accessories that are ready to move into a new home. so remember how i told you i was going to start making bags again? here are a few (and some jewelry, too) that i've been working on...

i'm seriously in love with the floral and leather bag. so much so that i might want to get chris to buy it from me for me. i found this cut of vintage floral canvas, and i thought it would make the best tote bag! i'm also thinking i'd really like a duffel bag in that fabric. so yeah, my floor has been covered in fabric, straight pins, pieces of thread and brass studs.

and speaking of making things, look at these BEAUTIFUL crochet covered beach stones that brittan is making! she is so talented, and i swear she can make anything. i can't wait to get my paws on some of those babies!

    ALL of these are so wonderful, Danielle! The metal twist earrings with the blue, those are so cool... is it paint or oxidation? I think you are one to something! And the totes are totally cool, can't wait to see more.
    I am a serious multi tasker (if you couldn't tell from our last chat, with my multiple projects and boxes scattered around me) and it is definitely the way to do it. I found that I am less likely to get bored with something if there is something else that I can rotate back and forth with...

    p.s. you are so sweet to mention my crochet covered stones! xxoo

    Everything looks amazing lady! You're right, at least it works for me too - do a million things at once. Get bored, move to the next and it will give you a new idea for the first! I loooove the earrings a lot!

    you've been busy girl! and i really love those earrings. also, i need to treat myself soon to one of your orb necklaces! every time i see them on your blog i just want to eat them! (sorry weird thing)

    i agree with you on making different things at one time. a.d.d is the only way i'd stay sane in creating. haha oddly enough.
