Chipboard Heart Bracelet and Earrings
Eileen made this heart jewelry set with Valentine’s Day in mind, but loved it so much, she wore it early. Her friends asked where they could get one. She said, “Make your own.” Eileen wasn’t being snide or nasty. These are fun and inexpensive to make. Check it out!

Carmi’s Art/ Life
There is nothing like a fabulous bezel to inspire an equally fabulous felted collar.

Resin Crafts Blog
This week I had an opportunity to experiment with a new medium, Powertex, which allowed me to turn crocheted doilies into bezels I can pour resin into.

Welcome to the Crafty Princess Diaries, my weblog and site where I get to blab about my passion for crafts, primarily jewelry making, and my crafting career. My name is Tammy Powley, and I decided to call my blog the Crafty Princess Diaries because of this very dorky picture I have of myself and because my husband often refers to me as “the princess and the pea,” which is just another way to say that I tend to be particular sometimes. Along with this weblog, I have a number of jewelry making books published.
