flower, feather headbands

Yes, I am perfectly aware I did not keep my promise and I haven't posted in a LONG time, but I am feeling particularly peppy due to the fact that my departure from my current job was not a huge affair around the office.  The simple, "We will miss you" statements were made and now it's like it didn't even happen.

Today, I do not have a DIY Craft, but I did find an Etsy seller that I REALLY like.  Her simplistic headbands are not only straightforward, but extremely elegant.  You could wear one of these running errands or a dinner party.  Her prices range from $5.00-$28.00 for hair accessories which I find very affordable!

Would be GREAT for stocking stuffers for Christmas this year!

DIY Pillow Case

Okay, I wanted to share this project AFTER I got done doing it myself, but we all know THAT'S not going to happen. 

This requires minimal sewing, if you hand-stitch you are furthur along than I, and so easy!  Pssshh... easy for you.  I recommend going to your local Goodwill, Salvation Army, Second Hand Thrift store... whatever hand me down store you have and find a sweater versus actually ripping up a sweater just to make a silly little pillow. 

I mean... unless you just don't care about your sweaters... I personally love my sweaters.  I live in Texas and I keep mine for YEARS, so giving up a sweater for this project just makes me think I'm losing a VERY valuable item when it comes to winter.

DIY Tank Top Purse

Would you believe me if I told you these were made out of tank tops???

They are!

This fantastic tutorial shows you super simple steps (if you have a sewing a machine, which I do not) on how to make them!

Best part? It's free! (;

Who would have thought those old tank tops could be so useful?

On another note, I have been a busy bee creating baby crochet headbands, studying for my graduate Marketing Management class, and trying to successfully market my products that I haven't had time to blog. Isn't that sad? I have made it a goal to at least blog AT LEAST 3 times weekly... yes... 3... times...


Until next time!
