CraftSanity on TV: Making knotted hemp necklaces

Today on Take Five & Company, I showed how to make knotted hemp necklaces. (I will have more about the necklaces soon).

I brought some glass pendants made by Steven Wheeler to incorporate into my demonstration. Wheeler is a West Michigan glass blower who I’m  profiling in my Sunday column in a few days.

Viewers can check out Steven Wheeler’s glass art at zionwatersart.com.

Hi Jennifer
Just wanted to let you know I am listening and reading from over here in sunny Melbourne, Australia. Absolutely love the podcasts and they have definitey saved my sanity over the past few weeks of mad sewing for local summer markets. I love your friendly style of interview especially all the laughter and personal anecdotes. It has been so inspiring to hear how other crafters have made their crafty dreams come true. Thankyou SO MUCH for all the work you put into this website. May all the crafty love you are putting out there come back to you X a million.

Just watched your video and love those necklaces! I’ve got some large glass pendants I bought but haven’t used yet – now I’m inspired to get on with it and start wearing them in some necklace designs of my own!
