The Breakfast Theory

2017, I've been wanting to try metal stamping but found that it was too expensive and I didn't have the budget for everything I needed. Christmas time came and I thought to put them on my wishlist, and my siblings chipped in to complete my list. So lucky to be the youngest ❤ So I finally bought everything though I found that my choice of font was too whimsical. The stamping set I really wanted was too expensive, almost double the price of the one I got. There was one set that was inexpensive, but was out of stock, so I thought okay, I'll get the hang of this first, make money off of it then buy another set. What I didn't consider though was the stamping blanks. The ones from the seller were too pricey since she orders from abroad, so when I was computing the selling price became too expensive that I just had to look for another supplier for the stamping blanks if I wanted to sell them at a reasonable price.

2019 was the year I received a lot of upcycle projects for old jewelry pieces. My sister also had a bagful of accessories that she was about to throw away and this made me wonder just how much accessories were being thrown out everyday.

So if you're looking for upcycle jewelry projects and ideas, visit  The Buttercupstreet Project . All my socials are there too, so tag me in your versions, I'd really love to see them!

The other day, much like cleaning out a locker, I cleaned out my virtual locker of social media accounts and deleted ones I haven't really utilized in the past decade or so. Since I had time, I decided to update this blog site too. I was surprised when I realized my last post was in 2014. Has it really been 6 years??!! I started reading my past posts because I remember having content that was from the sites I've deactivated. It was interesting to realize some things about my younger self and see the difference now. I'm so glad that even though I initially put up this blog to post about accessories that I make, because I was so all over the place, I also posted some things that were not related to crafting. Because then, I was able to read and see where I was at, mentally and emotionally, in that phase of my life. Going through my site and reading the posts, I realized...
