The Jenny Monthly Challenge - April Reveal

After last week's eye drama, I am happy to report that it's finally time to show what I made for the April edition of the Jenny Monthly Challenge!

Hurray!

Again, here is what I picked out for my challenge:


Spring colors!

...And, using those materials, this is what I made!


Ta-da!
All told, I made five things: a necklace, two pairs of earrings, a hairstick, and a ruffly yarn-y thing that you'll get to see if you keep reading (it didn't fit in the above picture).

And now for some close-up pictures!

Here are the earrings:



Here is the hairstick:



Here is the necklace:



The pendant is a vintage piece that I had in my stash... I'm honestly not sure where I got it. It wasn't in the original kit that I picked out, but it matched so well that I wanted to include it. 


Here are all of the jewelry pieces together:


And, now, to show what I made with the ruffle yarn! I'll give you a hint: it's not a ruffle scarf.

So, what is it?

*drumroll*

I made a shawl!


...If you look closely, you can see the necklace, too.

I apologize, because I know these pictures aren't quite the best... I had hoped to get a picture of me actually wearing it, but that simply hasn't happened.

Still, I hope you get a general idea of what the shawl looks like. It drapes over the shoulders, and can be fastened in the front using a pin.

Here you can see the front (on the left), and the back (on the right).



Overall, I am very happy with what I made for this challenge--and I'm very happy that I was able to get the shawl finished on time.



Thanks so much for stopping by and joining me for this reveal! If you come back in a few days, I should be posting my challenge for May!

...I just need to decide what it will be. ;)

    1. It really is! It's made me really happy to see how much this set really matches all of the flowering trees I've seen recently. :)
