Vinyl Record Purse| DIY Fashion and Craft TutorialsStars for Streetlights

http://www.starsforstreetlights.com/2010/06/vinyl-record-purse.html I am not a big fan of Bing Crosby or anything (but the other record on the flip side of the purse is "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling" and I do like that song... I am Irish, ye know. I really chose the records for the purse because I really like the colors and the Decca design. As I was going through the records at Goodwill, I first narrowed my choices by artist, then by the design in the center.

Make your mark in the world… with a marker! Introducing Stained by Sharpie . Sharpie’s first ever fabric marker allows you to scribble, draw, color and stain the day away. My love affair with the iconic brand is no secret.
Yes I am obsessed with polymer clay. Its such a fun material to work with because if you mess up... you just mash it all up and start again. Today's DIY is a spin off of this project that I did a little while back.

It should come as no surprise that around here, we’re our own biggest fans! While we’re proud to wear our Fossil head-to-toe, it inevitably means we’ll end up in the cafe line next to someone wearing the exact same pair of shoes. Our creative director, Casey, took on the challenge to customize our Summer Wedge using two of our favorite of-the-moment trends… neon and glitter. This week we’ll detail the how-to on the neon pair.

http://psimadethis.com/post/781143080/ive-been-roped-in-to-a-diy-obsession-thats-got I’ve been roped in to a DIY obsession that’s got me all tied up at the moment. I cannot stop weaving and knotting for the life of me! Currently, were seeing the macrame and summer crochet trend all over the place.
I must confess, I love jcrew so much. I even love the bags! (Hate to throw them away.) Then it hit me: why not make a rope bracelet from the handles? First, remove the handles from the bag. http://sideoatsandscribbles.wumple.com/2011/06/01/diy-rope-bracelet-from-a-jcrew-shopping-bag/

Wo, look at me chuck out posts like a hen with a Tesco egg delivery deadline, have you ever seen me this diligent?… …that’s a no then. Now if only I could sling this spurt of energy at something constructive… I think I’ll go install Sims 3, the dishes and laundry can do themselves – we’re in the 21st Century afterall, no? I’ve been keeping these hair pieces since April 2010 after wanting to imitate this particular Ashish show and back then I had the right sort of hair, long and loose. They kept travelling with me to press trips in a plastic bag waiting for that window of DIY opportunity to open, but as we all know it opened facing a wall and then painted shut for at least a year.

Well so does Fashion Bombshell Kendra who wrote in asking, “As a recessionista engineer, I cannot afford to buy a new wardrobe for the spring/summer. I have great pieces in my wardrobe already so I want to know how to make the most of my wardrobe by playing around with different color combinations. My mom gave me a color wheel as a gift. Unfortunately, I can’t seem to get it right…” “…Can you please provide tips on how to combine colors for clothes?

With summer LITERALLY around the corner, my mind has been turning to warmer weather wardrobe items. Embellished denim shorts are a must for me. Go to your local thrift store and buy some jeans or shorts. Once home cut to mini, distress if required, and then add lace or fabric or studs etc etc etc.
