Cheaper solution

[asterroc]

I went to A. C. Moore this evening right after chorus, originally to look for something that I could create as a star mirror dangle for my car. I found opalescent origami paper, but also yarn for a scarf to match my new jacket, and ribbon and a few nice turquoise beads to make a necklace to replace the one that I bought that's built for a fatter neck.

And then I found Blue Moon Beads Item 61556. They had all the others too, except 61576, which now that I see it is my favorite. I ransacked the aisles for beads to match and findings for what was now in my head, and left a hundred bucks the poorer an hour and a half later.

3 hours of procrastination and 2 hours of crafting later....

now

and then

Cheaper than the last harebrained scheme I had, and I get it now, when I need it.

It might have been treated; I'm not sure. Felting is a rougher process even than machine-washing--but if it advertises that it's machine-washable, I'd go with something else for felting.
