Ok, everyone knows I like shiny stuff right? Right... That's why I'm always blinging any of my possessions that can be blinged with loads and loads of SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS!!
My blinged up gadgets never fail to get me so much praise and attention :D
Like this gorgeous camera? You love?
But just sticking crystals on stuff is not the end of what you can do with SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS!!!
Thanks to this advert, I recently went to a SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS workshop and it turns out you can also use their crystals to make your own jewellery!!!
I mean, I've seen Swarovski Beads and Swarovski Sew-on Stones in craft shops before but because I always thought making your own jewellery was hard, I just never bothered to learn and try... BUT TO MY SURPRISE IT IS SO EASY!!!
This opens up a whole new world of possibilities :D

Just like with Swarovski Flat Back No Hot Fix, the possiblities are endless when it comes to design and personalization!!
You no longer have to hunt for the perfect accessory to match your outfit - you can just make your own!! And I daresay it is possibly cheaper than buying one off the shelf. :)
Here's one of the necklaces I made in about.... 15 minutes?
I always feel photographs don't do justice to SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS... They are really very shiny in real life sparkle whenever you move!!
