Blog Love

Sunday, October 30, 2011

I've been so on and off with this blog.  Some weeks I think yes....I can be like one of those awesome bloggers that have my attention for hours looking through their awesome photos and creative tutorials.  And some weeks I think...blog? what blog? oh yeah....that blog I started. Well no one's reading it anyway.


But enough of that guilt.  I'm going to fake it til I make it.  So what if I have 2 views today?  Someday I'll have 3.  Then 10 woohoo.  Photos would probably help that situation. Sorry but no photos today.


However I did find this blog, The Daybook, that I fell in absolute love at first site with.  Partly because her photos are endlessly interesting and inspiring. But mostly because she's hilarious and I can't stop reading her posts. Thank heavens for archived posts.  I've gotten through about 10 pages by hitting the "older posts" button because I just can't get enough. I may be up all night.  But I stopped just long enough to post about her in the spirit of actually being one of those awesome bloggers instead of just wishing I could be one of them.



And I love her clothes.

Sew Your Own Skirt Project

Monday, September 19, 2011


Make your own skirt in an hour? Yes please!  I love how simple and easy this project is.  You basically just need a sewing machine and some awesome fabric and just about anyone can make their own skirt. So fun. Now if I could only figure out how to thread my sewing machine...


Check out the tutorial and video here on the Etsy Blog by Brett Bara, author of How To Sew in a Straight Line.
