Sick Sick Sick and Another DIY Gift Idea

I have been SUPER sick since Wednesday night with fever and respiratory junk.  I'm slowly getting better- fever's gone anyway.  The rest of the recovery is going more slowly than I would like.  I am not a good sick person and have been pretty cranky and miserable.  I do hope to get some posts and pictures up as promised this week. 

I haven't been able to do much but lie in bed and cruise the internet, so I found another couple of links for DIY gift ideas.  I love the look of brooch necklaces, but they are sooooo expensive!!!  Here are two variations on how to make them- with chain or with ribbon.  I think these would be a popular DIY gift and potentially inexpensive. 

See you soon.
