I am a HUGE anthropologie fan. However, if you are like me, some of their things are just too expensive to afford. I found these pearl pins at the store and I knew that I could make them for much cheaper. So here you are.

Whale
I want to make a stenciled whale and make this pillow in a different style. Something other than the "beach house" look. I just wish I could get some more time.

Anthropologie's Pearly Pins

Anthropologie's Pearly pins
-
Plug if your hot glue gun and separate your bobby pins.
-
Sort through your pearls and glue one pearl at a time to the back of the bobby pin. (try not to go overboard with the glue)
You can keep it simple with just one or two pearls, or you can make a flower pattern gluing the pearls around the middle pearl. -
Wait for the glue to dry and there you have it!
These make a perfect subtle addition to any outfit.

Monster Christmas ornament
Christmas Monster
Christmas Monster Ornament
My friends like to have tree trimming parties where we make one another ornaments. This was a quick little monster that I whipped up before heading out to the party. It is such a simple gift!

-
First fold your felt once over and trace out your own little monster pattern.
It can be whatever you like. I kept mine simple so that I could whip it up real quick. -
Cut your pattern out so that you have 2 identical pieces of felt.
-
Take your 2 buttons and some contrasting thread and sew on two eyes.
-
Take more contrasting thread (preferably embroidery) and sew a mouth.
-
Take the two pattern pieces and flip them over so that the right sides are facing in.
-
sew around the edges leaving a small space which will allow you to flip it back right side out.
-
Turn the monster right side out and start to your stuffing
-
Sew the stuffing opening shut.
-
Now we must start to form the hat. Fold your red felt on the corner and cut.
-
sew the opening
-
Flip the hat inside out. Glue a strip of whit felt around the bottom and glue a part of stuffing on the top of the hat.
-
Use your white felt to cut out a pair of fangs
-
Glue fangs on, attach a string to hold ornament on the tree and you are good to go!
A perfect gift!
