2012 was a big year for me ... because I found out what the acronym DIY stood for.
Do.it.yourself.
And 2013 has been an even bigger year because I actually did something myself.
Well, okay. Jillian kinda did help. But, whatev. We aren't going to call it DIYBLJHAL {Do it yourself but let Jilly help a little}.
We saw some adorable glitter vial necklaces at a boutique in town. Immediately Jilly says, "We could make those."
I perceived that as, "YOU could make those" as I am not one to make much ... nothing really.
And then a few days later she and Claire were talking about having a ... dare I say it? A crafternoon.
I did the only thing I could do - ignore such crazy talk.
... Until Claire whipped out glitter.
And then I was sold.
All I had to do was dump pour a little glitter into a vial.
Pop the little cork and a hook in it.
Add a little super glue and a chain.
Annnnd ... voila! An adorable necklace!
It took less than seven minutes to accomplish. And that, my friends, is my kind of crafting!
I have now blogged recipes, about my babies, a fashion post and now a DIY. I think I have officially made it into the blogging world, peeps. And I couldn't be more proud of myself. ;)
P.S. Valentine's Day is in seven days ... And I have big plans! Just.you.wait!
Shout out to Claire who took all of these photos!

I don't think I know who you are anymore.
At first I thought that you were calling these necklaces "wretchedly bad; repulsive or disgusting; unpleasant" and then I saw the picture and realized "OH! They're *vial* necklaces!" :-)
This reminds me of going to dances when I was in college...we usually ended up wearing the glitter.
This is awesome! Way to go.
Hey now! This is a DIY craft I actually have time for. Suh-weet!
