Thrift Store Blog Hop

Today is the big day for the reveal for the latest blog hop I'm involved with! This one was a lot of fun because I really challenged myself to do something out of the ordinary (for myself.) I have always enjoyed macrame...when I was a teenager in the 80s I had an armful of friendship bracelets and now that fad seems to have resurfaced. When I came across this pile of floss in my local Salvation Army, I knew exactly what my project was going to be.

I was going to make several bracelets for my daughters but they asked me to cover their ear buds instead...what a cute idea! I did it and I love them. Now my daughter has made several of these and has opened her very own Etsy store! I'm so proud of her and her willingness to try her own thing. If you get a chance, I would love it if you would stop by her store: https://www.etsy.com/listing/106060977/handmade-macrame-wrapped-earbud)

I found this wad of floss for .98
Here is the finished project :)
Now I'm headed off to visit everyone else's blog and I hope you do, too!
