Summer Project!

I will be in grad school for most of the summer, but I think I could try to fit in a project or two.  I would like to do knock-off versions of these two necklaces:

If you create your own versions reply to this post!  I would love to see what other people come up with!

Spanish Bracelet

I have seen mod-podge bracelets and I have always wanted to make one but could never find those darn plastic things anywhere!  Finally, I found two of them for ten cents at a yard sale. 

I wanted to make a unique bracelet that represented myself.  In light of the start of my second year teaching Spanish and my own happiness project, I created a bracelet with a "People en español "magazine. 

I cut an article into small strips and layed them across the top and bottom of the bracelet first to avoid bunching. 

After I covered the bracelet in Spanish words, I cut out the word "felicidad," which is Spanish for "happiness," and glued it to the front of the bracelet. 

A perfect bracelet for the first day of school or any day of the week!
