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!:)

 

 

 

This is for sale in my shop.

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.

Inspiration

Oh my!! Have you ever stumbled upon one of those clothing websites (Free People, Anthropologie:) where you want to buy or make everything on them???? Well, I found another site like that, and let's just say it's worth a look! Ruche is just lovely! I found myself saying "Oh I could make that!" Except for the shoes of course, which I just wanted to buy:) It is my new inspiration!
