Crafty jewelry: Valentine Gem set Ring

Valentine's day is here, Love is in the air, blossoming in the air with roses, chocolates and balloons.A perfect day for a perfect proposal from special someone who would go down on his knees with a beautiful ring in his hands!! Hmmmmm......Doesn't happen all the time right? 

Okay there is nothing I can do about the proposal, but I can do something about the ring. This Valentine's day I am going to help all of you make a pink tourmaline (look alike only !!) and pearl ring. May be that would just give him the hint ;) 

Again the stones I have used are from an old link bracelet and the pearl is from an earring whose pair I lost. Time taken 5 minutes...so make it and wear it right now !!
I apologize for not posting step wise pictures as I was in Delhi participating at the Abhushan Summit for the last 2 weeks. More on that later.

Sewing cute hat for girls

While we were at a restaurant, an absolutely gorgeous teenage girl walked in with her friends. She was wearing a pretty hat that caught my eye. When she turned around and I saw the back, I was completely smitten with the hat. It was a combination of beautiful and girly and a tad bit quirky. On the way out, I stopped at the table (bold, I know!) and told her how pretty it was and then asked if I could check it out. It was knitted and I don’t knit, but the wheels started spinning in my little brain.  

When I got home, I immediately sat down and made hats until I got it right. The amazing part is that all of them worked just fine, but I kept tweaking it. I love that this project is so forgiving and easy!
