Blinged Out Contact Case

Just got finished blinging out a couple of contact cases and just wanted to share them. Did you know contact cases can be used to store seed beads and other small craft supplies in? You don't have to use them just for contacts! Honestly, give me some bling and I'll cover anything :)

 

 I loved doing the first one so much... I just had to do another.

Have a few extra contact cases around the house? Blinging a contact case is super easy... just get some rhinestones and a good glue, something like E6000 and start gluing them on.  If you are interested in a more detailed tutorial plus more ideas about ways you can use a contact case, see my tutorial HERE.

Thanks so much for dropping by!

Crafts Using Rocks Rock!

I was browsing Martha Stewart's craft site and these cute rocks caught my eye... How cute are these rocks below?! I have to admit, I've never really thought of rocks as being cute but these definitely are and how expensive is a rock???

Here are a few of my favorites......................
