The 3rd episode of snow in New Jersey hit yesterday.   Frustrated with the way the snow has stopped all the things around me that are fun I decided that I needed to be creative and add some color to the overly white world outside.

However there was a challenge that existed in this.   Much of my creative supplies are now at Jersey Made so that I can use them for classes, setting up displays, making signs, and of course creating art whenever possible.   BUT my sewing machine is still at home…..

I have been making these decorative cords from yarns and string that have been passed on to me.   Some are the ends – not enough to make another scarf or mitten.    Others just needed a new home.   I named them “Charming Cords” and have them available at Jersey Made.    While I was making a sign for me I listed a variety of possible uses.   They make great cords for my recycled necklace charms or when I want the cord to show on something I am hanging.    Jokingly,  my friend Tanya and I decided that shoelaces should be on the list.

Not such a joke anymore!   Look at the cool new shoelaces for my sneaks!!!

Being a good friend I made some “Charming Cord” for Tanya too!!!

As always, thanks for reading!

Comments make me smile!!!
