BRIDGET Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Yesterday talking with Nezu about bthday presents, she told me about hand made presents. I told her I suck at that, but I started wondering if ppl here have made or have hand made stuff. I've received several hand made presents. The oldest one is the narrow bracelet I received 5 years ago. My exboyfriend made it for me. He bought the charms in London & he made the cord. I have never taken it off. The wider one is a leather bracelet I was given 2 years ago by my closest friend. I only take it off when showering or at the pool- The most recent is this t-shirt. A friend's sis I used to tutor, paints & she made it for me. Ofc I love it... So, what about you? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
鼠ドル Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 I have no pics of stuff I made... But I've done bracelets, earrings and necklaces of silver wire/blue-colored wire, sweet water pearls and other pearls as gifts for others (and for myself). Also, I've given away 2 paintings to my former best friend, 1 for another friend and two for mum... Also drew a portrait of my nephew and gave to my sis :3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRIDGET Posted October 24, 2011 Author Share Posted October 24, 2011 @ Hama. I think you're very skilled, those earrings are way to feminine for me. As I told you I just use the pearls my granny gave me when I turned 18, but they are nice. In Spain, the hand thing is called "manita" yours is quite accurate. Very talented indeed....

BRIDGET Posted October 25, 2011 Author Share Posted October 25, 2011 @Hama, In here the "manitas" are made of silver or gold. But they are used by a very specific type of woman. It's not very frequent to see women wearing it..... I rather prefer bracelets, do you made them too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vampireluvr97 Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 That is adorable! I tend to draw things, not really make things like earrings and neckalces, but I did get a necklace from a craft fair that was made from an old-fashioned scrabble piece. Girl s outs,a I made earrings (still have them) and ones I made with my dad that said "Dad's Girl" (still have those from a while ago) Otherwise, that's pretty much what I have besides the artwork I have from art class. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
