Crafternoon: what do you do when you have no green for st Patrick's?

Answer this question

Answered

Having discovered that I no longer have anything green to wear for St. Patrick's Day (don't ask!), AND not being able to get out to shop before then, I made some St. Patrick's Day jewelry to wear.

I used some heart-shaped beads I had from a Goodwill store find and some foil-lined green glass seed and round beads left over from some Christmas ornaments I made as gifts.

I used ring-sized memory wire for the pendant and bracelet and green raft wire to form the shamrock charms.

  Thank you! I did forget to add that I based mu charms on a tutorial by Erin Siegel (erinsiegel.com) but I used heart-shaped beads instead of puffy ones and green wire instead of the gold-colored wire.

  I am willing to sell my creations! The bracelet does run small (I ended up giving it to my daughter) but I could make a type that doesn't use this memory wire.

Often the mess is too much and each project started just opens another can of worms. It seems like there is no light at the end of the tunnel sometimes.
