DIY: Mesh Produce Bag

I've been seeing a lot of adorable produce bags around (I love a good bag!) 

and decided to make one of my own.

Each Monday, I post 6 things I have found and adore in the Craft, Paper, Art, Design, Fashion, and Food catagories.

Sewing/Craft: I love the idea of turning these ornate clock hands, 

or even simple ones, into stunning jewelry. 

(I know I'm posting links to buy, not make, here but it's a simple DIY 

by adding them temporarily to a pair of stud earrings)

Paper: I'm always interested when someone comes up with a new way 

to do something that's always done the same, like these addressed envelopes.

Art: I admit it. I'm on a gnome kick. They're just so cute.

Design: Although I love the bright colors on white in this room, I have to

 say what stands out to me is that FANTASTIC pendant!

Christmas In California

Fashion: How simple is this! I wear flats a lot and I'm always 

wondering how to jazz them up. This girl got it spot on: by simply 

tying a ribbon around her foot!

Bows on Shoes

Food: Another thing I'm slowly worming my way into is 

Bento making. While perusing lovely Pinterest land, I found these: 

adorable animal shaped breads. Almost too cute to eat!

Weekly 6

Each Monday, I will post 6 things I have found and adore in the Craft, Paper, Art, Design, Fashion, and Food catagories.

Sewing/Craft: These cases are to die for. I love the idea of making a 

little color coded one for each family member.

Paper: Terrarium cards, imagine getting one of these cuties on a 

cold winter day, it would sure perk me up :)

Cards : Quill and Fox

 

 

Art: I love how the type and vinelike lines all intermingle, almost as

if it's grown there.

Design: I am in love with this bathroom. I've always liked the idea 

of lots of plants in an otherwise sterile space.

Green Bathroom : Skonahem

Fashion: I am absolutely in love with this sweater. The stripes are 

my go-to and the anchor takes it up the extra notch.

Food: I know this seems like a fall thing but I cannot get 

over how adorable this is!

Random: Cause I'm excited...

new purple hair :)

Crafts: Sewing Machine Cover

I got a brand new Singer Simplicity for a steal at a local sewing shop and decided to make a cover for it with fabric I bought there. 

I measured around the sewing machine (very loosely) and sketched it out. I stiffened it up with some non-fusible webbing (just what i had on hand) and added a couple pockets for the foot and cords and also extras to keep nearby.

3 pockets in front hold scissors, seam ripper, extra fabric and thread

back view with a jeans pocket for the cords and another piece of the same pair for the foot

It's stylish enough to sit on a counter while you're in between projects and keep the dust off and easily slips on and off for taking along.
