Due to my Superbowl party yesterday, I slacked off on the first day of Thing-a-day, but I made two things today to make up for it!

Thing 1: A crystal ball made from seed beads and Swarovski crystal beads (4mm size). I’ll probably make another one of these on another day, so I can make a pair of earrings. :)

Thing 2: My husband is off on a business trip for a few days and I miss him a helluva lot. He’s a hardcore retro gamer, so I thought I’d do a little pixely cross stitchery in his honor.

Itsa me Mario! With fire power!
