To whom it may concern

For the new one, I used a fortune cookie charm, a pagoda, a screwdriver and the Dash hands, a toothbrush and toothpaste and hairdryer, and a music note. On the old one, I just added a couple of screwdrivers either side of the shopping cart.

The little Dash hands arrived, and I added some tiny guns and cowboy hats for Grungy Bill aswell.

I also had a stab at a new one for the same episode, but added a hurricane lamp and some bicycles. I've only got the one mill and toaster so they stayed on the original bracelet

I used camp fire charms to represent hell-fire, shopping bags and dollar bills, a couple of contract-charms, a microscope charm and some charms shaped like old-fashioned mobile phones. I've got some old-school TV charms to go with the Donald's terrible adverts and a little American flag, and I want to add a tie charm, some dollar symbol charms, and a globe or something similar to represent the World o' Stuff.

I need a couple of charms of hairdryers, screwdrivers and scissors to really complete this, and I literally just found a listing for fortune cookie charms, which I'm going to order and add, but at the moment:

A shopping cart, some money, Chinese takeout boxes, a comb, the walkie-talkie that Charles babbles into, and a cassette tape (because I definitely couldn't get hold of an eight-track charm).

And here it is, the final day of the Twelve Days of Craftmas challenge! This one is themed around Dash's introductory episode, the Hole in the Head Gang. However, it's very unfinished, so I'll probably be posting up more pictures further down the line.

Anyway, here's what I have so far:

This one has a really cool charm of an old mill (the wheel really spins!) and a toaster with bread slices that actually pop up. There's a couple of milkshake-y things that I'm using as a Black Cow, a skipping rope that I'm using to represent both Mister Radford tied up in the basement, and Grungy Bill tying Simon and Dash up before going to rob the bank. There's also, for obvious reasons, dollar bills and little bags of money.

I'm going to add a pistol charm (of course), some little hand charms (for Dash) and maybe a little sheriff/star charm, if I can find one that I like. Also perhaps torches and cameras, maybe a football helmet to reference their "goonie" helmets. I'll post more pictures as I go!

The last ten entries for the Craftmas Challenge have followed the order of the episodes. It follows that my entry for Day Eleven should be themed around "Marshall's Theory of Believability"; however, I haven't gotten started on that episode's bracelet yet as most of the charms haven't arrived. The same goes for the "Tornado Days" episode, so I'll just skip to what I regard as episode thirteen, Broken Record:

I have vinyl records and a turntable on this one, as well as some little pitbull charms. Much like the Heart on a Chain bracelet, I'm waiting for a package of little surfer-men charms to arrive so then I can have pitbulls and surfers. There's milk bottles, of course, because apparently dangerous driving and dairy delivery go hand in hand in Eerie, and headphones, but I also managed to get a few references to Syndi's subplot in there. There's fireman helmets and handcuffs and police badges, and a couple of little notebook charms and pages full of handwriting.

For Day Nine of the Twelve Days of Craftmas challenge, I have a (bizarrely beret-less) Who's Who-themed charm set:

I've used pencil charms (obvs), easels, trunks/suitcases marked "Paris", a passport charm(not that Sara Sue needs it), a couple of bicycles, and a sealed envelope to represent the letter she sends Mars from Paris. I also included a police badge and handcuffs for Sgt. Knight, and am waiting for a pair of aviator-style sunglasses to get here. I'm planning to add an Eiffel tower when it arrives, and maybe a unicorn to represent the garage door that Syndi wants to paint.

For Day Eight of the Twelve Days of Craftmas challenge, I present to you, a charm bracelet themed around the episode Dead Letter!

I used silver closed envelope charms, bronze open envelope charms which have "with love" written on the front and a little embossed heart rising out of the open envelope at the back, rocking horses from Marshall's dream, some little bronze heart charms, milk bottles to symbolize possibly the deadliest delivery drivers in the world, notebook pages saying "I love you", cameras and gravestones. I think I might add some newspapers (for Andrea) and possibly an ambulance or hospital charm if I find one I like.

Day 7 of the Twelve Days of Craftmas, and the first day of 2016. Today's entry is a bracelet themed around the episode Heart on a Chain. It's got a couple of anatomically correct hearts, a skateboard, Grim Reaper, gravestones, and milk bottles. For obvious reasons, I couldn't find a charm of a muscled surfer dude with a pitbull head, so instead I've ordered a charm of a pitbull which I'll put next to a charm of a surfer to represent the Pitbull Surfer logo on Devon's skateboard. It's also got a little spiderweb with spider to callback the Fly reference at the start of the episode and a pink Cadillac representing the King's well-meant but probably impractical dating advice.

Later, I'd like to add a few more valentines shaped hearts to this necklace, and maybe throw in another Elvis reference or two. Burgers and music notes, maybe?

My fourth entry for the Twelve Days of Craftmas challenge is a charm bracelet themed after one of my favourite episodes, the Losers.

This bracelet has several motorcycle charms on it, representing the Unkind Ones; a briefcase, which is in the middle of the bracelet and is also the only coloured charm, as Edgar losing it is what kick-starts the story; a couple of $100 dollar bill charms and a fishing rod, a pair of socks, a washing machine and tumble dryer charm, some luggage charms, and a pair of walkie-talkies.

My third entry for the Twelve Days of Craftmas (actually submitted on the right day, for a change) is my ATM with a Heart of Gold charm.

Obviously, given the events of the episode, there are quite a few different money-themed charms, as well as a shopping bag.

I included a pair of glasses and what is supposed to be a bowtie (but actually looks more like the type of bow you put on a gift) to represent Mister Wilson, along with a giant icecream sundae charm and a pair of sneakers charms as a reference to some of the stuff Simon buys with his ill-gotten riches.

There's a pair of handcuffs and a policeman's hat in reference to the Mayor getting arrested, a megaphone to represent the big unveiling ceremony at the start of the episode, and I used an old fashioned PC charm with tower and keyboard as the actual ATM itself.

For my Craftmas challenge entry, I decided I would take a stab at some Eerie charm bracelets, since they seem relatively foolproof and less likely to have me throwing things across the room in a paddy when something goes wrong.

Originally it was only going to be one or two, but I got all excited on eBay and ended up with loads of charms, and then a few excellent people in my life heard what I was doing and gave me even more charms, so I decided to do a seperate bracelet for each episode, and then maybe see what's left over and combine them.

The first one, I'm called the Foreverware bracelet. It's got the infinity symbol, the sandwich, the cookbook, the weird tupperware cocktails Betty serves at her party, the binoculars Simon and Mars use to spy on the Foreverware ladies, and a football helmet to represent the New York Giants. I'd like to add bicycle charms, a yearbook and maybe a photograph charm to it in the future.
