So I am one of those people who loves hand-me-downs, and thrift store shopping, and it seems that one of the items I constantly collect is flannel button ups. A few weeks ago I went through all my shirts deciding what to do with them, and finding a loveley red one handed down to me by my brother I decided to save the fabric and re-invent it into a skirt! Just click on the image and try out the how-to! Good luck and if you try this how-to I would love to have you share it with me!

Although I haven't posted too frequently the last two weeks - and haven't put up a new how-to in roughly the same amount of time - that doesn't mean I haven't been crafting. I've spent the last few weeks surfing some of my favorite creation websites and blogs and trying out some of the DIYs and How-Tos I've seen. Below are a couple of my favorites, the links to the website/blog, and a sample of my creation based off of the DIY inspiration. Enjoy!

 

Ka-Ching Earrings

Highlight your favorite accessory - your credit card! I had some matching visa gift cards lying around and I created these Ka-Ching Earrings! I hope you like them. I also strongly suggest against using actual credit cards - we don't want any stolen identities!

Feather Earrings

After chopping all my hair off I have developed a new found love affair with dangly earrings. I have also been going through my expansive collection of craft supplies and trying to get rid of some things to make room for others. One thing I have far to much of is beads and feathers. I was also dying to make obnoxiously dangly earrings. So I took the feathers and the beads and voila! I created an earring that Cher (in full native american headdress - of course) would be proud of! Hope you enjoy!

So I'm sure a bunch of you, like many of my dearest friends, ran like hell to Old Navy on Saturday to snatch up their infamous $1 flip-flops . I unfortunately didn't get a chance to shoot over and buy a few - And by a "few" I mean 15-20 in varying colors and shades. Furthermore, I have more flip-flops then I can handle right now so I didn't really need anymore. In fact, I have so many flip-flops that I decided to upgrade an unused pair. This project is ligitimately 2 steps and requires little to no skil!

My inspiration? Black Swan starring Natalie Portman
