Make it Monday: Embellish Your Tops

     Happy Make-It Monday! This week I've procures a couple of cute t-tutorials just for you and just in time to spruce up some tops for spring!
 I hope you had a wonderful Easter weekend! Mine was pretty nice despite lots of coughing. I want to thank you if you visited the IPL weblink. Yeah...so the inner geek in me game out and I spent most of the weekend watching Starcraft2 games with the BF.

      Have you heard of the book The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins? It has been all the rage for my family members and a couple of my friends. My Aunt, uncle and cousin gave me a copy for Christmas and, in all honesty, I was reluctant to read it...but now that I've started it its tough to put down! Go figure. It really is a good book so if you're looking for an intriguing read for you nook, kindle, library: The Hunger Games.

On a less geeky note I felt inspired by last week's post and decided to make my own Anthro inspired necklaces and I'm quite pleased with how it came out. I didn't want to buy any supplies...and just kind went with it. I like it!

Make it Monday- Anthropologie Necklaces

ANNOUNCEMENT!

Click here to access the Coconut Head Jewelry Facebook Page. Dear friend, please like it. You know, you can even click the "Hide All Posts from Coconut Head" if you want...but I would greatly and dearly appreciate it if you did stop by and say hello.

      Happy Monday! Today's Make-it Monday will be comprised of a few crafts. I've stumbled upon this her posts several times at http://www.flamingotoes.com/ and am constantly impressed. For today's intent and purposes she does a wonderful job of taking jewelry from Anthropologie (one of my favorite, way to expensive for me to actually buy something, stores) and recreates it herself for much less. 

     So, if you love, LOVE, love Anthropologie but don't want to hash out the cash for their goods make it yourself! I'm not much of a necklace wearer but these tutorials definitely make me want to try it out. Oh yeah, and I have a couple new items out in my shop...one of which happens to be a necklace!

Green Erlenmeyer Flask Earrings 
$10  They are a little smaller than I normally make them, and they are so fresh and so green,green! <-- I really enjoy typing that.

Teal Erlenmeyer Flask Necklace $10 

Alright, here are the pics and the blog source links will be below them. Most are pretty simple and look just like the actual store product!

Thirsty (for stuff) Thursday - Marine Mania

       Happy Thursday! To be honest, I have no idea where the week has gone. I thought Tuesday was Thursday but then realized that it wasn't...and that's where I have been all week...floating in the ether. 

ANYWAY, I hope your week has had more structure than mine leading out of the fog of confusion. 

       On a happy note Last night I met my boyfriend's parents :) It was a success! They are very kind people and we got along quite well. 

    Onto Etsy, please meet Bigg-Mac: my latest creature. He is a crab. And would like to be worn rather than eaten...but this was my first attempt using props in Etsy photos. What do you think?
