Project: Reversible Tote Bag Tutorial
Hooray for Friday! Let’s celebrate with one of my favorite things to make! It takes a bit of time (okay, more time for me than it probably should, but then again I only am just learning how to use my sewing machine), but the results are a sturdy, well-made tote bag, that happens to be reversible, that you can use this weekend. How lovely! Continue reading Reversible Tote Bag Tutorial
Project: DIY Sharpie Mug
Need a last minute gift for a co-worker before tomorrow? Grab an unused plain coffee cup and a few Sharpie markers and make your friend a personalized mug for their desk! Bonus: Since it’s homemade just for them, they’ll feel extra special and not at all think that you scraped it together last minute. Continue reading DIY Sharpie Mug
Project: No Sew Braided Headband
Let me preface this post by saying this is one of the easiest headbands you will ever make. The other easiest is in the Tips!
Soon (hopefully very soon!) I’ll be able to put away my adorable winter hat and sport some even cuter headbands in weather that doesn’t freeze my face off. In anticipation of such, I’m on a headband-making-spree. In addition to the reversible headbands that require time, patience and a sewing machine (post on those to come!), I’m making these really fun braided headbands in every color that require only a few minutes and no sewing at all!

Project: 5 Easy Updo Styles with Tutorials
I love finding new hair style tutorials and pin pretty much everything I come across, but some of them are things I’ll never get around to doing. These, however, are five great how-tos from various websites that are not only amazing, but fairly quick and easy! Since I’m stuck in jury duty this week, fast hair styles bright and early are the only way I’ll get there on time. Continue reading 5 Easy Updo Styles with Tutorials
Project: Cozy Catnip Kitty Pillow
My cats, Lucky & Mabel, have a few select places they like to sleep: on top of the hamper, on top the chest, on top of clean laundry I just laid out, on top of any project I’m currently working on/my laptop, and in their little kitty bed. It’s a couple years old now and pretty much beat up and hideous. I decided it was time for a new one, one that was pretty to look at and laced with catnip to make them happy! Continue reading Cozy Catnip Kitty Pillow!
Project: Jury Duty Nail Art Design
Tomorrow morning, I have Jury Duty. Actually, by the time you read this I’ll have already been sitting in a stuffy room somewhere for 3 hours waiting for my name to be called (and inevitably mispronounced quite terribly). My navy nails were all chipped and awful looking, and while I don’t have an extravagantly elegant outfit planned to wear to my civic duty (read: sweater dress, tights, comfy boots), I thought I should at minimum remove the old polish from my nails and start fresh.
