Very nice Carol but I can't remember if you done wine tops cork ones for key rings if you have a pub or restaraunt near you you can get them free as thier thrown away😊

[@refunctioncrafts4928]

I have done some wine corks but I need to do that again. I have some better ideas for them now. I found a huge bag of corks at a thrift store a couple of years ago and I’m still using them. I love the idea of going to a local bar to get them. Thanks for the tip!

No, but that’s a great idea!

[@cindyallen1405]

My request to join Kiki's page has been pending for a while now . 🤔

[@refunctioncrafts4928]

Oh my, she changed it to Birds Place. She’s not selling anything right now as she’s had to stop for a while. Debbie lost her son to cancer a couple of years ago and things have been difficult for her so she had to stop. The Facebook group for Bird Place is still very much alive and we have a beautiful group of crafters that are so friendly and helpful to each other. Go to that group and ask to be approved. If you don’t hear from her writhing a couple of weeks let me know Cindy. I will get in touch with her and ask her to let you join. I’ll let her know we are friends. ♥️♥️♥️. Debbie is a very dear friend of mine.

[@cindyallen1405]

@refunctioncrafts4928 oh my goodness, I'm so sorry for her. Sending prayers for her.. 🙏🙏

[@sandyartman7520]

I realize this post is several years old BUT I have that shower curtain and would be willing to share part of it…never thought about using it in crafting!

[@refunctioncrafts4928]

Thank you so much! Wow! Yes, this is an old video. I loved using those pieces for my projects because the flowers provide a great vintage feel and their great for small pieces. You can get a lot of projects done with that curtain. 😁.

[@lauraaxon2646]

There beautiful I'm going to make some, I'm a vendor how much do you sell them for and display them I'm a first time viewer

[@refunctioncrafts4928]

Thank you! This was actually a very old video and I haven’t made them for a while. I used to make them as “thank you” gifts for my customers.

Love the laces! Can you share a link to where you got them? Thanks so much! Love your clips...your style agrees with mine. Happy to have found your channel!

[@refunctioncrafts4928]

Kiki Dodson 4C4L I added the Amazon link for the white floral lace. The other trims were some that I got from Kiki’s Sale on Facebook. It is a Facebook seller page and she gets the best laces and trims I have seen. She does sales every other Saturday and it’s so worth catching. She’s having trouble with the “join” part of her page so you will have to friend her in Facebook, then she can add you to her group. Super sweet lady. Her name is Debbie Cottrell.

[@janevincent7103]

THESE CHARMS ARE SO ADORABLE, BEAUTIFUL, APPEALING. i HAVE BEEN MAKING A FEW IN A BIT DIFFERENT WAY. I WRAP PAPER OR FABRIC STRIPS AROUND IT THEN WRAP WITH MULTI COLORED SARI YARN WHICH IS THIN BUT WITH DELICIOUS THREADS ALL OVER IT (ALL SILK). TO FINISH IT I , WRAP COLORED WIRE WITH BEADS I'VE INSERTED ABOUT A 1/2 INCH APART ALONG THE WRAP IT AROUND MY BEAD. WHILE WRAPPING THE FABRIC, PAPER, OR YARN AROUND MY BEADS, I TRY TO MAKE THE BEAD THICKER IN THE MIDDLE WITH ENDS TAPERING DOWN TO BE THINNER. HANG BEAD(S) AT BOTTOM OF CLIP AND VOILA, A BEAUTIFUL BEAD. IF I KNEW HOW TO DOWNLOAD PHOTOS, I'D SHOW YOU. I ALSO GLUE A PAPER STRIP ON A CLIP THEN GLUE A SMALL PIECE OF EPHEMERA OR A TINY PAPER DOLL ON CLIP. COAT WITH GLOSS MEDIUM, ADD CHARMS AND/OR EMBELLISHMENTS (LEAVES, LACE, FLOWERS OF FABRIC OR PAPER) AND GLOSS THEM BEFORE GLUING ON. I'VE FOUND BEAUTIFUL TINY PEOPLE AND OTHER THINGS ON THE GRAPHIC 45 PAPER PACKS IF YOU HAVE ANY. ANY PAPER PACK MAY HAVE SOME TOO. SOMETIMES I DIP THE ENDS OF THE BEAD IN PAINT (I LIKE THE METALLIC). THEN I DIP THEM IN GLITTER FOR A LITTLE SPARKLE. I SAW MOST OF THESE IDEA ON DIFFERENT YT VIDS. AND HEY, I JUST SUBSCRIBED! YAAAAY!

[@refunctioncrafts4928]

Oh man, I would love to see yours!! They sound gorgeous♥️♥️♥️. Thank you for sharing

[@baukjelem]

How beautiful is this 💕. Question; what is the name of the tool you use to pick up the small (precious) stone? This is a very handy thing. greetings from the Netherlands ✂️✏️🖌️✂️🌺💕

[@refunctioncrafts4928]

Thank you so much! The tool is called a picker. I have a video on how to make them yourself. It’s super easy and you don’t have to buy them. I just make a whole bunch of them at one time. 😁

[@ccuellar4you]

Is it possible that when you get your charms close to the camera you hold it until it is in focus. Just wast to see the details, cause they are gorgeous.

[@refunctioncrafts4928]

ccuellar4you oh, of course. I’m so sorry. Still trying to get used to getting everything right. Thank you for the comment! It helps me to provide better tutorials.

[@nayyway]

Can you use tape for the paper one???

[@refunctioncrafts4928]

I suppose you could if you wrap it all the way around the paper but you would still have to glue the embellishments on.

[@nayyway]

Thank you and also iblike your charms
