Are you into the whole Galaxy trend lately. I found these beads a while ago and knew I wanted to pair them with gold beads, so when I FINALLY found them this past weekend, magic happened. These are really simple to make...</div>

String them all on to a stretch cord. I prefer a 1mm sized cord. Then knot the ends together, there is actually a special double knot you should do, that gets tighter the more you pull of it, but, I usually just use cement glue before I double knot it. I have never had an issue thus far. </div>

I finally got around to making a tutorial for <a href="http://www.cutoutandkeep.net/" target="_blank">Cut Out and Keep</a>. Life threw lots of lemons my way and prevented me from making this sooner, but, alas here is one of the many tutorials I hope to share. It is for a small bag which you can use for makeup or as a small bag to take with on the go. Tutorial below. </div>

Use your black fabric (or whatever color you chose) and glue it to the inside of your little pouch/bag. The easiest way to do this is to put some glue on the fabric then carefully slide it into the bag. Press down gently to attach both materials. The blue lines on the picture above illustrates the size of the fabric you want to cut out and where the glue should be. It does not have to be perfect, just make sure the sides are glued down. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Make sure you get this edge of your fabric glued down well. So it does not get caught in the zipper. It will also prevent your from accidentally dropping things in there. </div>

Next, get your fabric flower trim ready. I purchased this trim at an embellishment store. You could also make these flowers yourself, if you know how to. I cut the trim into three sections of four flowers each. Measure yours out to see what adjustments, if any, you need to make. </div>

First I attached some Rhinestone trim. Add as many or as little as you want. Just make sure it is long enough to slip your hand through. I used monofilament cord to attach it. See the picture below. </div>

I made some jewelry in the last 24hours and wanted to share. I either can't find my cement glue or have run out of it, which prevented me from securing my knots. So, there are strings all over these pieces since I couldn't finish them completely. But the jewelry still looks really cute.</div>

This tutorial is for the case pictured above. It's my first "graphic" tutorial and I hope it makes sense. I'll be creating another tutorial using the actual materials for a different style in the next few weeks. Any questions, let me know!

I suggest you read through the instructions before starting, to fully understand where things get glued, and how to measure. </div>

Ok, So I was in need of an easy way to see and access my stud earrings. I looked online for ideas and looked around my house to see what I had on hand. I have a few wooden frame mirrors and tons and tons of paper. I merged the two and came up with this super cute stud earring holder. You can probably use this for any kind of earring, but dangle earrings tend to be heavier and might eventually rip the paper, if interested in doing so you may want to back the paper with something strong, like vinyl? or thin cork?<br />

Here is the back. I used mod podge to seal it in place. I was tempted to use a staple gun to secure the paper too, but lets see how the mod podge holds up. I pre-pierced the holes for the earrings with a paper piercer. (If you do so with the earring itself the paper tends to get creases.)

I found these cute plastic coin purses at the local dollar store and knew I could spruce them up. I didn't create a step by step tutorial but I promise it's super easy to do!<br />

Here is what you need. The purse, Fabric of your choice, fabric scissors, a paint brush or foam brush (not pictured) and Mod Podge (also not pictured). <i>I used regular Mod-Podge, although you could use the Fabric Mod Podge. </i><br />
<br />
Here are the basic steps...<br />
<br />
1. Cut out your flower from the fabric. (or whatever you decide to use)<br />
2. Apply Mod Podge to the back of the fabric, then put the fabric onto the purse. Smooth it out as much as possible. I used a paint brush to apply the Mod Podge.<br />
3. Paint over the entire flower (or whatever you used) with Mod Podge. Make sure to go over the edges of the fabric to seal it down. Have fun with it, you can add different kinds of fabric and even cover the whole thing if you wanted to.<br />
4. You're done!<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Take your hair comb and gently spread out the "teeth" of the comb. Not to much, just enough to allow the thread to pass easily. </div>

Use your hot Glue gun to attach the rhinestone trim. </div>

Start wrapping the trim with your thread. You can either knot it at the beginning or tuck the starting strand under your wraps. I've included a picture below of the back so you can see what mine looks like in the back. You can also glue the strand behind the rhinestone trim to secure it, then begin to wrap. I did three wraps each between the rhinestones, feel free to do as many as you like. </div>

Then, I trimmed off all the excess fabric with my fabric scissors. (Make sure you use fabric scissors <i>or really sharp ones </i>so you have a clean edge) You can leave it just like this, if you want. It's super cute as is. But I love sparkle and wanted to add some rhinestone trim to it. </div>

I made a tight gray case- all single stitches. Then made a huge pink bow for the middle of it. I am going to use clear thread to stitch the bow ends down- they keep flipping up a bit. Below is a picture of it with some sparkles using the photo glitter app. </div>

A young lady named Camila asked me to create a tutorial for this cute crochet bow, and here it is! It's my first official tutorial, so if anything seems confusing or you think I missed a step please email me and I will try to help you out! In order to make this you need to know the very basic steps to crocheting. Here is a link to The Lion Brand Yarn <a href="http://cache.lionbrand.com/cgi-bin/faq-search.cgi?store=/stores/eyarn&learnToCrochet=1" target="_blank">"Learn to Crochet"</a> page. I think they have great visuals. You can also check out youtube for more videos. (I also found the Klutz crochet book VERY useful, but as of the time of this post, it was no where on their website for purchase- might want to try ebay or amazon?) This is a super easy project and is great for all ages and skill levels. These are also the same steps I used to make the Crochet Bow Bracelet. </div>

These are your materials. You need 28 Gauge wire, you choice of color, (It can be found at your local jewelry or craft store) Wire cutters, and a crochet hook (I used size E4-3.5MM). </div>

Chain a few stitches. You need the length that will fit around your finger, so you need to measure it (around your finger). This will vary for everyone so I don't have a specific number to give you. Your stitches do not need to be perfect, thats the beauty of the project. As you can see in the picture my chain stitches were all slightly different sizes. It will give the ring personality. (If you are making the bracelet, increase the amount of chain stitches here, enough to fit over and on your wrist)</div>

Now lets join both ends of the band. lightly twist the two wires together (Do not- and I can't stress this enough- twist the strands too much, they will break off, it happened to me and made me pout). </div>

Now lets start the bow. We will start the same way you did the band, with the chain stitch. Chain it to your desired length, keeping in mind the more chain stitches the longer the bow will be on your finger, and the less chain stitches the smaller it will be. I suggest at least six chain stitches. When you are done with your chain stitches you will turn your work and start making a few rows of single crochet stitches. </div>

Here is a tip for working with the wire which can get pretty unruly. Pull off about six inches of wire (at a time) and then slip it through that small slit that (hopefully) came with your wire spool If you don't have a slit, take some tape and tape it down. </div>

Check to make sure you are happy with the length, width and height of the rectangle. I only did two rows of single crochets here, but prefer it with three rows. (as with <a href="https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10150671184107697&set=a.10150528791192697.396090.190138062696&type=1&theater" target="_blank">THIS</a> ring- Oh and by the way, feel free to click "Like" while there!) When you are happy with the size of your rectangle, <a href="http://cache.lionbrand.com/faq/118.html?www=1&lbc=&language=" target="_blank">fasten</a> it off and cut off the wire with your wire cutters.</div>

When you string them in a few times, snip off the ends and you might be left with a sharp little piece of wire. You can either; use a nail file to file it down and smooth it out, or use your fingers to bend the tip and curve it so it can no longer poke you (I just bend the wire with my finger). </div>

I made the gorgeous Crochet Bow Bracelet after I saw something similar in a magazine. For the life of me I can't figure out which magazine I saw it in, but if I find it I promise to upload a pic and show you how similar it is. I used 28 Gauge wire and started with the bow....<br />

I crocket a rectangle for the bow. The height of the bow depends on you, add more rows for a bigger bow, less for a smaller one, but I would use at least four rows to get a "fluffy" looking bow. I finished off the end of the rectangle and strung it into the edges. I then used some wire to wrap around the middle and pinch it. Finally slide some wire through the middle of the back of the bow and begin to make a long chain- long enough to fit over your hand and fit snuggly on your wrist. I single crocheted into every chain stitch to make it a thicker, more durable band. Finish off the end and then string the left over wire into the bracelet band.
It's a quick written explanation of how to make this bracelet, if you would like more details, don't hesitate to email me! Sellz@SellzCuteThings.com

I took out one sheet of the ones that stood out to me most and decided to redo a canvas I messed up a couple of weeks ago. I cut each 12x12 paper into 3in by 3in squares. I used modpodge and a foam brush to adhere them to the canvas and to later seal them into place. I got a few air bubbles so I recommends using a popsicle stick or something to smooth down each each square. Below is a picture of all my little squares lined up.<br />

I created this mini tutorial to share how to create the perfect shapes on your nails. I saw this once before on another blog and wrote a blog post about it a while ago. This is perfect for anyone, even if you don't have the patience or skill of being an ambidextrous nail artist. </div>

These are the supplies you need. I already had a mani so I didn't have the creative flexibility to use the colors I wanted. (It was kinda spur of the moment to make this tut, but I'll redo it again probably tomorrow and will do it with the colors I want) You need nail polishes of your choice, a top coat (not pictured, I always use Seche Vite) Hole punches and masking tape, or painters tape. I like to use the thin one so its easier to use.</div>

Punch out the shapes and design on your masking tape. It may be tricky because of the stickiness but its not hard, just try not to let it stick to your hole puncher. I found my individual heart whole puncher at a dollar store. Its PERFECT because its a little heart that definitely fits on your nail. </div>

Apply your polish. Be fun and creative in this step, add dots, glitter, leopard print anything that comes to mind in this step. Its easy to do it because the masking tape is covering the nail and its almost impossible to mess up! I stayed simple for this tut. </div>

GENTLY and SLOWLY peel off the masking tape. I wait about a minute or so after I have applied my polish. There is no rush and I can't stress it enough do it slowly and softly so it doesn't mess up. The great thing about this is that the masking tape is reusable. I used the same one above on my index finger to make a small white heart (picture below) </div>
