DIY part two...since I don't wear that much red or pink, I decided to make myself some subtle pink accessories for Valentine's day. Check out Jenny's great post on how to make a similar necklace and the freezer-paper printing method for the tote came from Lena Corwin's amazing book, Printing by Hand.

To celebrate getting my 1000th heart on etsy and because I love all my readers so much, I am giving away one of these pink necklaces for Valentine's day. Just leave a comment by Wednesday, February 17th at 8am with your email address.

Have a great weekend!
