Something New and Sparkly: Girls Just Want to Have Fun

Fabulous Felt Yellow Bird Necklace

Fabulous Felt Glamour Girl Necklace

Fabulous Felt Lucky Stuff Necklace

"Girls Just Want to Have Fun" seems like the perfect catchall for describing a trio of mismatched felt neckpieces. Then again, one can't really argue that flowers, makeup, and rhinestone-emblazoned four-leaf clovers aren't girly and fun. Happy to have won that little argument with myself.

As always, I've posted the necklaces in order according to how much I like them. Tropical birds and flowers always win, but I really like the makeup and lucky stuff too. I was especially excited to use my pink leopard ribbon in the Glamour Girl piece. I'd gotten it as a gift and have long since been plotting its destiny.

So, what's up with that last picture? It's me wearing my new charcoal mask. It recently dawned on me that all those glue fumes could be harmful to my tender brain. To clarify, we're not talking Elmers here. The fabric glue I use is pungent and burns skin upon contact, both surefire signs of a substance that can cause internal damage after prolonged use. So. The bf was kind enough to hunt down some protective headgear for me. Unlike a regular old dust mask, the charcoal creates a barrier so strong that I can't smell the offending glue. Hopefully it nets me a few more years :)
