Ok, Crafty Girrrrrrls, the challenge for this month (well until the middle of May from today) is

TO MAKE AN IMPOSSIBLY GORGEOUS NECKLACE!
Thanks for all the ideas you sent to me, they were great. I will follow up the ideas you have already given me in the next months.

How to start???

Umm a visit to your local bead or craft shop is a great way to start. For me, a trip to a bead shop is just about the most fun a girl can have.
What to use?

Gorgeous glass beads, leather strands, old plastic bags (huh), plastic beads, fimo (oooh I am going to use fimo I think), silver wire, chicken wire, knitting, crocheted balls, clay, PMC, fishing line, Tiger Tail, crimps, lace whatever you like…..

And when you are done please post a photo for all to see at our One Hour Craft Flickr Group.

Get to it ladies! Why not make a party of it? We will over here.

Some Great Links to Get Started:

• I love love love The Bead Shop. Check out this link to their ideas for necklaces. They are divine! I love this site. When I first started to make jewellery about five years ago I feel in love with this site. They have great instructions on different techniques. If you are a beginner you may find the idea of these a little bit daunting.
• Some ideas from Beadage to make different simple necklaces with tigertail and a Floating Illusion Necklace. Good for the beginner.
• You could make some felt beads (something I am going to try) with help from The Monkey Basket.
• Great tutorials to make Polymer Clay (Fimo) Beads. What a great blog!

Have fun!

Mia
