What I did while watching the Superbowl

Gotta watch the Superbowl—mostly so I know what everyone is talking about Monday.  And usually the advertisements are pretty good.  Although this year’s ads did not live up to my expectations, the football game was pretty good!
And since I almost never watch TV without dual tasking, I kept myself busy with some jewelry making. 
The first one is my version of an Anthroplogie necklace.

Anthropologie

I have seen several versions of this online.  I like it with the added scrabble tile pendant.

And this one has been seen in catalogs and blogs also.  Fun to make except for a few hot glue burns.

It is really difficult to get a good picture of oneself either in the mirror or holding the camera out in front.  (Well, I don’t think there is such a thing as a good picture of me but that is a whole other issue…  Smile with tongue out

I am adding my link to these parties:

  1. Very pretty! I'm not very crafty but it looks like the beads on the first necklace are threaded on some kind of knit fabric. Doesn't look nearly as difficult as the 2nd one!

  2. I wish I would have made as good of use with my time in front of the TV yesterday as you did! I am usually a dual tasker as well, but we were watching at a friend's house, so that wouldn't fly. Thanks for following me, now I can follow you too!
