I made something other than a sock monkey! Crazy- I know.
I have been trying to learn to play guitar for about 6 months. I am still awful at it, but luckily- I am stubborn.
In an attempt to avoid actual guitar practice but still stay somewhat related, I decided to make a bracelet that would tell [...]
