Fobs Fobs Fobs and More Fobs

I have spent a great deal of time making scissor fobs lately.  I have sold quite a few on etsy.com.  I can do these in my sleep.  I don't know why but I enjoy watching the color evolve.  I use Silk 'N Colors by Thread Gatherer.  It is really my favorite thread to work with.  I am in the process of thinking about selling that thread.  I have not got it all worked out yet but it is in the beginning stages.  I have a bit of homework to do to make it happen.


Every time you make these they look different.  I don't use a pattern I just make them up in my head.  I go through my selection of silks and beads and put together something I would like.  Most of them are very colorful but some are pastels too.


I like to use glass beads in all of them.  I am crazy about delicas for some reason.  I also like unusual glass beads like in the one above.  They are a milky white but lined with gold.


 You can find all I have in stock here.  I am always adding them so come back often.  Or request something.  You can look at my sold items and if you like one of those I will do my best to make you one.


This one I call My Crayon Box.  I have sold quite a few of these.  It is probably one of my favorites.



I do other fobs as well.  I am showing some from the past.  The pink house is done over one fabric thread.  The flower was done on some of my hand painted fabric.


Here is another popular one.  I have done quite a few of these.




Sometimes I fancy up the back.


Most of the time the back looks like this.
 
 
 
Sometimes a little embellishment is just the thing. 
 
That is all for now.  I have made loads of these things.  Too many to list for sure.  I love doing them so if you would love to have one just contact me at
