Gay made this bag with fabric that had printed dots on it.  We then added clear crystals on top of each dot, changing the size of the crystal to ad depth To make an invitation even more special, embellish it with crystals!
   There are over 180 16ss crystals on each bracelet, and over 700 crystals on the necklace. The backing is a strip of ordinary sand colored fleece (like for a blanket) that I measured to fit and sewed a set of clear plastic snaps onto the ends.  I designed them myself to wear in a ballroom dancing competition this coming weekend (my first professional appearance). The result is amazing sparkle which could be worn for any special or formal occasion.  Thanks Shannon!
This ornament was made with Angelina behind sheer organza as the background.  The yellow glow of the candle is just another color of Angelina mixed in.
I was able to see this quilt in person and it was magnificent!  Donna did an unbelievable job.  The quilt was first done with crayons...and then blinding with crystals!
Here is my cover accented with hot fix crystals.   It is meant to be a cover for a paper back book.  The ribbon is supposed to be a bookmark and the other end you cannot see  is attached to the cover so you can't lose it.  The web site to purchase this in the hoop project is

I put a hot fix crystal on the tab and on the center of the button on the end of the ribbon bookmark.    There is a yellow crystal in the middle of the flower and the rest are pearls which are quickly becoming my favorite as it looks more old fashioned and less glitzy for a more heirloom effect.   I will be getting more of the pearls when I run out and this time in more sizes.Book cover made by Pam Hanson of Embroidery Billboard.com

One of a kind cell phones with Swarovski Crystals.  Do it yourself and save hundreds of dollars!  Thanks Tracey!  Please note that the hot fix crystals will not stick to the cell phones or anything metal without using an additional glue.  I recommend a two part epoxy, available in any hardware store.
