Chatelaine

     The shuttle I had gotten from Herrschners.  The shuttle is usable once you figure out how to use it.  The jump ring was removed and  a lobster claw clasp was added to remove it from the chatelaine.  The chatelaine is adjustable from 18" to 21".  This allows me to were it as a necklace or make it longer for a usable chatelaine.


       This can hold my tatting essentials, shuttle with a little tatting started, and my Air Force mini Swiss Army knife.  The mini knife has a nice, sharp scissors with it.  I had gotten the knife, when I was in the Air Force.

Christmas in July

     Found an unopened set of 12 Christmas tree kits at an estate sale.  I bought the set for my Sunday school class.  The trees are made with pipe cleaners, beads, and safety pins.  This is what they look like...the instructions were a little unclear, but figured it out.
