Artbeads review and giveaway ends 12/26

It's no secret that I love to make things. All kinds of things. A lot of the time you will see fabric, glue, bobbins, paint brushes, and beading laid out on my kitchen table together. (Like right now)

I was thrilled at the chance to shop with Artbeads.com. They have 1000's of beads, findings, strands, and charms to choose from! I chose to purchase (with generously alloted review budget) items to make charm bracelets for gift giving.

This is just a piece of what I recieved:

The charms are high quality and I can tell they will withstand the test of time with kids. I purchased elastic threading with them so the bracelets will slip right onto those little wrists without the need for clasps.

I have only had time to make 1 bracelet. This one is for my neice. I combined all of her favorite things into a bracelet that describes her! A fairy, princess crown, star, ladybug, and cheerleader megaphone! In between I used these multi-color pastel glass beads with colors of pink, blue, and green in them. It came out really nice and I hope she loves it as much as I do.
