I'm back....in action.

Hello blog world! I've been away for awhile...but keeping busy nonetheless...I am now only 4 classes away from having my master's degree! woo hoo!

I have collected a lot of inspiration and to-do projects in my absence and will hopefully post as I start to cross off my never ending list.

anyways...for Christmas I got my first ever sewing machine! I am so excited about all the goodies I plan to make.

Here is my first sewing project (even though I didn't do it with a sewing machine). I was inspired by Say Yes to Hoboken's DIY Ruffle V-neck. When I saw her post, it reminded me that I recently bought something at the thrift store that would do just the trick.

Grand total: $3.50 for thrifted item with ruffle, $3.50 for gray v-neck from F21 = $7 for cute new shirt!

stay tuned for future sewing projects!!

p.s. special thanks to say yes to hoboken for the great inspiration. :)

updates

Just a few of the projects i've been working on:

Josh and I made table numbers for our friends' wedding... so josh did most of it but I did all the number part. :)

Used a plate from anthropologie and a white candle stick holder from goodwill to make a cute little cake plate!

I put up a little inspiration for Josh and myself in our bathroom

"cleanliness is next to godliness" good motto to live by. :)

convinced

After visiting this website I'm convinced I must be an old soul. Love it all.

But mostly coveting the Ella Rose belt.

heartbeat

amy butler and i share the same heartbeat for unique and beautiful patterns. Every living room feels incomplete now that i've seen these....

recently

Finally got around to finishing one of the many projects on my to-do list.

I made alphabet magnets out of an old scrabble game! I love what it does to my fridge!

I also got around to using my heart-shaped muffin cups! It's a great way to give

a little love to someone in a tasty way!

lovely.

i've decided that i need to join a firm that makes lovely packaging

that way i can help make the world a prettier place one juice bottle at a time.
