Hi dear readers! I’ve got a couple easy DIY projects to share with you, a necklace and a bracelet! I don’t have step by step tutorials, so if you have any questions just ask.
Ruffle Necklace
A cute and easy way to add some interest to a boring outfit. Note to self: you are your own model, [...]

I think I’m addicted. The clothes I would yawn over before are getting a second look in my closet now. To me it’s just as thrilling to revamp something you already own than to go out and buy something new. Because, you made it. It’s yours. And it’s unique. So here is another sweater refashion [...]

I decided to share a cute little sewing project I finished the other day. On a whim I decided I wanted a new cardigan with a spring feel, you know, because of the sub-zero temperatures lately. Ha! Anyway, I’m dreaming of Spring and what other color to incorporate than yellow, right? So I took a [...]

Happy 2010 everyone! I trust you had a nice break and are raring to go for another year, and…another decade!
I’ve been experimenting with some projects made of felt that I thought I’d quickly share. For some reason I’ve been on a kick of making things for myself which for some reason, I rarely do. Maybe [...]

Oh how I love accessories! They can make any dull outfit brighter, cuter, and more interesting. Here are some of my favorites I’ve come across this season.

Beautiful handmade headbands from Taza (found via SeeSaw Designs). I’m also a fan of her coat that’s seen in all her photos and awesome red lipstick!

These are creations from [...]

I promised yesterday I would have something neat to show you! I finished up a handmade purse for my 7-year old niece (it’s her b-day next month) just last night. Oh, it is sooo cute! I’m really proud of it and I couldn’t wait to share it with you.

Basically I just knit a large rectangular [...]

I picked up this vintage ribbon with a beautiful mustard yellow and green pattern. With some leftovers from this project, I used the jersey knit and sewed a length on either end of my cut ribbon. It’s great because I made it originally just for my hair, but it also fits around my waist, so [...]

OK, well the temperature has finally dropped and I got the first official cold chills of the season this morning. Luckily, I have a new knit hat to keep my little cranium warm. I used the Le Slouch pattern from knit and tonic and I love  it! I had never  knit in the round before, [...]

Embroidery has always intimated me for some reason. Maybe because in order to do it right, I feel like I need to be willing to work on it for days — and I just love the quick projects too much. But these images make me want to attempt an embroidery piece pretty bad.

Embroidery in Color [...]

So I got these great clip-on earrings at an estate sale recently for 50 cents and I thought it would be fun to think up some new ways to wear them. There are probably more ways, but I thought 8 would be a nice round number to start things off.

1. Clip it on a skinny [...]
