Jean Skirt.....

Okay for the record I must say I DON'T SEW!!! This is my very first project that I found online and then attempted myself. SO forgive me for the horrible pictures and even worst the horrible out come. I thought that this would be REALLY easy. Ya know. Not for me. It took me HOURS. Jeff was so funny when I told him that I was cutting my jeans and making a skirt he was like just go by the skirt I am going to end up buying you a new pair of jeans and the skirt.

I am so stubborn and wouldn't give up I spent too many hours to count on this....it is wearable but not in front of anyone who can sew. And if I find that perfect jean skirt I will be purchasing it.
So for all you sewing goddesses I am sure your version would take half the time and turn out so much cuter!!! Good luck!!!

Project in the works.......

I have been on the search for the perfect jean skirt. BUT I refuse to pay 50-60 bucks so I am making my own. I found a great tutorial HERE (It's toward the bottom)

I have ripped the seams out and just waiting to sew it while the babies nap. Wish me luck! Pictures to come!!!

Need a Getaway??

My darling friend Charise is hosting this scrapbooking/craft boutique. I want to go more than anything.....I just have to convince the hubby. It sounds like so much fun. Just thinking of all the scrapbooking makes me giddy. Maybe that is what I should do today instead of cleaning. Hmmmm. For more info click HERE I can't even wait!

Spring alingaling time......

I don't have girls but it doesn't mean I can't make some great things for my own hair. I love making these flower clips. They easily clip to a head band or go great with a pony tail. I bought the clips at the beauty supply store and found flowers at the local craft store on sale of course and went a little crazy. I have a flower to match almost any color. I used scrapbooking jewels for the centers you can get really creative and use buttons but I was going for cheap here. Happy Spring!
