DIY Dollar Store Button Hair Ties Tutorial from Two Butterflies here. This is so easy - Dollar Store elastic hair ties (I’d try and buy sturdy ones) and pretty buttons. This is an easy project a child could do - along with the presentation of the ties.

DIY Necklace Pattern via A Bit of Sunshine
I love the color choice in this, but what is great about the pattern is that you can follow it with different colors.
Fall colors, neon colors, holiday colors - what colors would you pick?

DIY Leather Cord Bracelet Tutorials from Small Good Things. Really easy and cute DIY. I like how Emi used crimp beads in a really unique way for one of the bracelts. As in all her tutorials, Emi tells you exactly what size cord and jump rings she used.

I like the DIY pair better!
DIY Anthropologie Knockoff Pave Ruby Earrings Tutorial by Small Good Things here. Photo Left: $498 Anthropologie Pave Ruby Earrings here, Photo Right: DIY by Small Good Things.You can add an embosser to the tools I own - but I’ve literally only used it once because I never got into scrapbooking (much more a Photoshop person). This might change after seeing the gold embossed suede used in these earrings in a very doable tutorial by Small Good Things.
I made these earrings myself in an hour and a half. I used an Arizona Iced Tea can, french loops, and some electrical wire.
Truebluemeandyou: These earrings are by far the prettiest recycled can jewelry I’ve seen. So when I see posts about people wanting to use recycled items for crafts - this is a good one!
Seriously, if you’re not following The Purl Bee, you’re missing out!
Look at this fantastic sewing project: The Forty Minute Tote
