Stitch markers

I'm knitting quite complicated lace shawl at the moment and I just have to use stitch markers there, at least 2. Until now I did perfectly fine with earrings, but lace yarn is so thin that earrings are totally unpractical. So i went to Etsy and bought myself this yummy stuff:


Quite expensive actually, around 7 euros, but oh so beautiful. But then I thought that the idea is quite simple and they're really not difficult to make. So I went to Veritas today and for bit more than 1 euro I made myself these babies:



OK, they're not as nicely made as the Etsy ones, but it's my very first attempt, so I think it'll get better. In the meantime, I fear another obsession is on its way: stitch markers! :)
