The sun is shining and it is finally starting to feel like spring! I whipped up this springy bracelet and necklace this weekend using stuff I had leftover from other projects, it&#8217;s funny how one thing leads to another!</p>

<p>I have a video tutorial on making the loopy flowers I used on the necklace <a href="https://thefrugalcrafter.wordpress.com/2012/03/27/loopy-felt-flower-tutorial-lots-of-tips/">here</a>.</p>

<p>I used <a href="http://www.papermart.com/Search%20Pages/CombinedSearch.aspx?SearchStr=ruler%20ribbon&amp;origin=thefrugalcrafter">measuring tape twill ribbon from Papermart</a> on both of the pieces.  I was going to use an actual sewing measuring tape but I could not find an extra and I remembered this ribbon, I&#8217;m glad I did too because the plastic ribbon would not have felt as nice to wear.</p>

<p>I used Aleens Jewel-It glue to adhere the glass pebbles to the ribbon and also in the ribbon crimps before I closed them for a secure bond.  This glue is for adhering beads to fabric and can be washed!</p>

<p>I added some sparkly beads on headpins to a large jump-ring near the clasp to make the design a little more interesting.</p>

<p>I also used a toggle to finish the necklace. Elegant, no?</p>

<p>I really like making fun statement jewelry, it&#8217;s fun to make and fun to wear. I&#8217;m putting this in my craft fair booth but if it does not sell I am totally keeping it!</p>
