Commonplace

I made this pouch/ clutch for my sister. It's from the leftover fabric from these keychains.



Remeber this skirt that I made? Well, with the other part of that curtain I made a longer version. This is also for sale in my shop.
Nothing exciting to write about. I will have another post soon, with a really cool (or so I thought:) clutch. I was looking through all my fabric the other day, and pulling out all these less than a yard pieces of fabric, so you'll probably be seeing a lot of accessories projects.

Arsenic and Old Lace

Don’t you just love that movie?!? Cary Grant at his best! Anyways, I wanted a title with lace in it, so that’s what i came up with!:)

This is a bag I made from a crocheted curtain and two cloth napkins. I have the other part of the curtain to do something with; I have a few ideas, but you’ll have to wait and see what I do with it!:)

Can I say it's 'Plaidtastic' or is That too Cheesy?

Ah, summertime!! I don't like hot summers. I prefer the colder seasons. But today was perfect! Not too hot, a lovely breeze blowing. I went to a picnic, with family and friends. A few things that I like about Summer: Picnics and wearing more skirts like this!:)
I actually bought fabric to make this (no, it's not a table cloth, or curtains!:):)) I'd been wanting to make something like this ever since I saw a similar skirt in a Forever 21 store. It was more green than this, and also more expensive! That was more than a year ago, and it's been on my mind ever since! When I saw this fabric, I knew what I would make!! Finished in about three hours! I love it! How bout you??(just say yes):)

Wearing tee-shirt from WalMart, and vintage 10 commandments bracelet from my Mom. (it's missing the 4th commandment:):))

Jackpot!

Last week I went to Goodwill. And I got all of this fabric for only four dollars! Definitely a deal, and how cool is that eyelet fabric?!? Four dollars would be how much I pay per yard for that at any fabric store! The only problem is that I got some polyester fabric in the mix.... Anybody know what to do with it, without being outdated??:) Obviously I won't be making myself some polyester pants!

And then, today my Dad had gone to a yard sale that had yarn a dollar a skein. So we went back and I made an offer for all the yarn. I got over 40 skeins for 25 dollars! Woo-hoo! I won't have to buy yarn or fabric for quite a while!!
