have you ever checked out this website...


www.dollarstorecrafts.com ?
YOU ARE MISSING OUT IF YOU HAVEN"T!!!
It teaches you how to make really cool things like these!

Spring has sprung

And now it is time for some spring color!!! WAHOOOOO!! You ever been to Charming Charly's, if not you should! They have great hats!

these sit in my entry way and makes me smile

Got this beauty from the thrift store... can't beat 3.00 for a beautiful mirror!


Don't you just love all the color? I do!!! makes me smile:)
My sister in law had this dresser in her basement it was a really ugly forest green color so I skipped myself to Home Depot and bought me some beautiful ocean blue spray paint! LOVE IT



this is one of my fav's

made this from a bunch of scrap black and white fabric! wrapped it round and round and round on a canvas... one day it will be hanging in the sitting area of my bedroom... when it is all finished I will let you take a peek!

my yard looks like this right now and I am in love....

Wow! When me and my cute hubby bought this house we had no idea the treasures it had hidden outside in those dead flower bushes.... This is what has been hiding and my yard looks like something from the secret garden!!!





So of course I needed to take advantage and bring the beauty inside and create these beauties!!! Have I mentioned I love spring?

if your favorite shirt rips

Just add a heart!

You can turn this

Into this!!

and then I became obsessed and made 2 more! they are super easy and look super chic!!!


take a normal long sleeved thin sweater cut up the middle. ruffle some of your fav jersey knit fabric down the middle sew one of the ruffles right on the edge where you cut, measure 1/2 -1 inch and sew the next ruffle and voila you have some super chic cardi's!! wahooo. *When you ruffle your jersey fabric make sure you ruffle down the middle and sew it on the sweater on the same stitch so you end up with 4 ruffles but only ruffled 2:)
