Retreat!!


Some of you might remember that last year I was a hostess at my church's women's retreat for my table (if not you can go here to read all about it :) ). I had so much fun in that role. I was crossing my fingers that I would get to play hostess again this year...and I am!! I am so excited. Last year I made bookmarks for each of the ladies at our table. I am trying to figure out what I would like to do this year. 

My mother in law (who I just call Mom) is uber talented when comes to all things "crafty". She helped me figure out how to do the bookmarks from last year and taught me how to make this bracelet last night. :) You can't see a lot of the detail, but its basically seed beads and crystals. I am trying to figure out if I want to make bracelets for each of the ladies or if I want to do something else. It takes about an hour to make each one, but I think they are really pretty.


It sparkles, so naturally I love it! :)

My two concerns are that I won't be able to get the crystals in as quickly as I'll need them and also that the sizing won't be exact. What do you think?
