Stuff, stuff and stuff

I posted some more things in my shop! Sorry it’s been so slow. I won’t be able to post more than 2 to 3 things at a time, until school is out for Christmas break. I have been working on some things though, so hopefully, after finals, I’ll have more up. And one of these days, I’ll get around to posting something that I made for me:)

To make up for no project photos, here are some of my faves this week. :)

This is from The Sartorialist I think. I like everything about her outfit! Her too!:) 

I absolutely LOVE these boots! Why, oh, why are they in a size six only?!?

Dusk and Summer

  This was a long, ankle length skirt that I found at a thrift store. I loved the color (grayish blue) and the fabric (corduroy!!) but not the length. So I chopped off about two feet and then used that fabric to make the ruffle. Simple, easy and fast, without cutting into homework time. :( Christmas break can’t come soon enough!!!

Speaking of Christmas; I want to know, what is your favorite season/holiday?? I absolutely LOVE Christmas and winter; snow, Christmas lights, Santa, even the hurried shoppers in the mall. I love it all. So, how about you!?!?

Etsy Store!

I posted some more things on Etsy. Not much, but I can now say my store is open!:)
Go here!! And tell me what you think. Really! I've never done this before, so if something looks funny I'm depending on you to tell me!:)

Ta-Da!

My new boots! I love them! Although it's been a bit of a challenge to learn to walk in heels!:) Now I"m as tall as my brothers!;)

Alter the Ending

Yes, I am alive! I am considering hiring someone to do my homework so I have time to sew. (I’m kidding… maybe) I have so many sewing ideas building up in my head right now, but no time to execute them.

Here are some photos of my nephew and the lovely Fall foliage. What do you guys think about the bigger pictures?

 

I am also very excited about Dashboard Confessional’s upcoming CD! It comes out November 10th! Can’t wait!!:)

I Think I Strongly Dislike Them

Talking about the shorts. I love my new necklace! Not so enthusiastic about the shorts.  

Took me forever to finish these. These sat in a pile for about a month before I finally hemmed them.

Went to see Fame yesterday! I loved it!

Purple People Eater #2

This was made from a men's shirt from Teresa (thanks!:) She gave me some shirts and a skirt, and this is what I’ve made from them so far. (I have an idea for the skirt, but no lining fabric:() When I dyed this sweater, I didn’t want to waste the dye, even though the box said it was only good for one use. So I just put the shirt in the dye and let it sit there for half a day. After I washed it, it came out looking a little faded in some parts. But I just said it was “vintage.”    

The top of course, you’ve seen before. The pants I made from the shirt arms. I think they’re really cute. I remembered how to make them from a tutorial I had seen awhile back, but I don’t know where that is now.

Some random blog posts that I really like this week. Here, and here and don’t forget here! Check them out!:)

Also, I am in the process of setting up an Etsy store! I’m very excited and hopeful about it!:) I will keep you guys posted.
