Charming

Isn't this just charming? Well, I decided to join a fun altered charm swap at 2 peas. I've never made handmade charms before so it has been quite the adventure. I initially decided to try shrink plastic. Remember shrinky dinks from when you were a kid? I cut out these cute bats, baked and attached a clasp! Of course it took some experimenting and I ran out of shrink plastic before I was able to make a full set for the swap! So I then stumbled across the idea of scrabble tile charms. They were quick, easy, and turned out even better than expected. Unfortunately, I was in a hurry to get these mailed out and didn't have a chance to take a picture of them. I had been tossing around the idea of opening an etsy shop and since I had these extra bat charms I finally set one up tonight! I'm hoping to list a few more items this weekend!
