"Before"

Wear a Paperclip

Hi y'all...first things first. I have to give a BIG shout out to a couple of wonderful blogs. Imagine how thrilled  I was when I checked my mail and found that I was a Top Ten  winner, and the Pick of the Week over at The CSI Project  for my 
"Song Birds" ...Wow and Double Wow!!!  Thanks so much to their guest judge Janny.  
I also found my "Game Cabinet"  featured by Megan @ Polish The Stars. 
Check out these fabulous parties...Thanks so much!!!
















Now on to my "quickie" project...wearable paperclips! Does that make this a "green" project? I thinks so. I have way too many paper clips...ever since I discovered gem clips...or is it gym clips? Whatever, I like em' way better than paperclips.  So what do you do with all those extra paperclips?...make a craft, of course! I searched everywhere grabbed my needle nose pliers, and my extra large paperclips with an idea...wire rings. I straightened the clips by hand and then proceeded to twist them together...like this...

After twisting I wrapped it around my finger to make a good fit...then twisted again...like so...

With four wires to work with I start twisting again...this time with the pliers...

I tried several different kinds of twists...random, flower, and heart. Here are the results...

Amelia loves these and even wore one to school....a definite sign of approval from an eleven year old girl! I couldn't resist taking pics with the beautiful Spring flowers...not to mention that I do NOT have model hands! I would love to hear what you think...will you try it? Thanks for stopping by.
Linking up with these fabulous parties...
