Patriotic Necklace

"In the truest sense, freedom cannot be bestowed; it must be achieved." -- Franklin D. Roosevelt


It is almost independence day again.  Last year I went craft-happy.  This year not so much.  Partly I think it's because I'm a little sad that my boys are growing up.  I wish Pinterest had been around when they were younger because there are so, so many cool things I would have liked to have done with them.  Fortunately for me, I still have three adorable nieces who can still appreciate my creativity.

Thank you to Buggy and Buddy for this cute patriotic necklace.  


This was so super easy to do, I assembled them during warm-ups for a swim meet.  Everyone around me loved them!  And the beads were super cheap on sale at Jo-Ann's. 


I cannot wait to give them to the girls.
