leisure time

I told myself upon waking this morning that I wouldn't do anything school related to give myself a little rest. Last night/early morning was spent working on thesis with two of my crazy group mates, Kaye and Lee, so today I wanted to do something I liked. I thought of cleaning my room again, but I felt too tired to move things around. So I decided to bead and re-watch Sex and the City.

Here are the sets of bracelets I made. I've been dying to get my hands on the pretty Accessorize and Love Diva ones because I really love the way they put together assorted beads and combinations in one bundle. Unfortunately I don't have the money to buy bracelets now, so I tried to think of a way to improvise.

It's a good thing my mom went gaga over Divisoria beads before and bought a lot of it, since my sisters and I were crazy about making and selling dangling earrings in school during that time. I never thought that years after the dangling earring phase I would go back to those beads and actually use them again. But i'm glad I did!

What I made was really simple actually; the combination of the colors just make the simple beading look more appealing. It's also nice because I can just easily combine the ones I made with the other bracelets I have to make it look different. I know it's still no Accessorize or Love Diva bracelet, but for me, I think it'll do! At least by making them at home I don't have to spend so much, plus I get to make them according to the size of my tiny wrists!
