Tim Holtz Style



Do you ever have one of those days where absolutely nothing goes right for you, a day you just want to go back to bed and start all over again. Yesterday was one of those days for me. I kept dropping my pliers, losing my jump rings between the cushions of the couch, the wire wouldn't cooperate, the day seemed like it would never end. I stayed away from the real projects I'm working on, who knows what would have happened! LOL! After a very long day of nothing going right, I managed to get this necklace done in the Tim Holtz fashion. I didn't give up, as much as I wanted to, but took all day to do what should have been just a few hours. Today, I will take it back apart and make my own jump rings, as the ones I used are way too flimsey! Didn't even want to try it yesterday! LOL! Today I have more patience.....
