I have picked up the art of making stitch markers. The one seen here on a super secret project (shhhh!!!) is one of my first ones. I really like glass beads. They add enough weight to be useful but not so much to be a PITA. I do have actual 'rings' coming (hopefully arriving today!) so that I don't have to bend the wire around to make a loop. It's not a terrible process, it will just be so much cleaner looking with a ring. I am so jealous of Wenders stitch markers... we all have to start somewhere though, right? One of these days I'll get fancy. :)

Hiya! Thanks for the comment on the stitch markers. Honestly, though, I think that I just lucked out in my bead selection! And, (this is a secret!) I waited until I got sets in the mail to start mine so I could look and see how someone else did it. :)

That's how I found out closed jump rings existed. I actually just got the rings in the mail yesterday. I just like making them and giving them away. And using them of course. :)
