I'm glad you were able to find cord ends. These are really cute
hair pearls. ^_^

Where do you get that fake sea grass or sea weed from? I've looked everywhere
Michaels craft store is where I got mine. Still have a bunch too lol

I have some from the craft store too (seaweed) but you could always buy aquarium plants!

You don't find it labeled seaweed really anywhere unless it's aquarium plants. Try Michael's and just choose what looks the most seaweed-like to you.
They're so pretty!<3 Gotta say that I'm really fond of the seaweed & pearl mixture too. =P
seaweed and pearls are forever <3 <3 <3~!!

Looks like a lot of people use the fake "tea leaves" that you can buy at craft stores and use it as sea weed. I've been using the tea leaves as well but I find that after being exposed to water, the green paint comes off. Easy fix: spray with gloss clear coat before using them or paint a layer of mod podge mixed with green paint onto the leaves. Works like a charm! I'll post a few pics of one of my projects as soon as I finish it... work really bites into my creative time.
Okay,
this is the first accessories I have made. I mean like earrings, barrettes, necklace pendants. etc. So please.....be gentle lmao
:O that first pair of clips is AMAZING. Seriously. I love them. They're so intricate and little! I love the colour scheme too, it's so delicate <3
Is that second pair earrings?
Yup the first pic is a pair of barrette clips...unfortunately there weren't enough "same" colored shells to do the same on both.
the second picture is a pair of earrings
and below the earrings is a simple little shell with a irregular pearl (or something) glued on the top.
The two spiral shells on the barrettes, the shells for the earrings, and the white shell for the pendant are all shells my great-great aunt brought back from hawaii so she will always be with me
