Add a burst of color to your room with this crafty pouf! At 17” wide and 10” deep, it’s large enough to serve as floor seating or a foot stool. (And if you have pets, I have a feeling they may want to make this their new favorite spot!) http://www.designsponge.com/2010/05/sewing-101-making-a-pouf.html

Tutorial~Ruffle shirt~

http://tearosehome.blogspot.com/2010/01/tutorialruffle-shirt.html I have been a big fan of Down East Basics and Shade for a few years now. I wear Wonder tees from Down East all the time. They are comfortable, modest (hide everything I need to hide and when I bend over it doesn't flash people) and since it is not baggy, I wear it under a cardigan all the time.

DIY No Knit Scarf

We love Rike Feurstein . Her hats are sick and her chunky knits are lusciously bold and amazing. And when we saw her Dylan scarf, we thought it was genius.

TUTORIAL: Reconstructed Men's Shirt to Button-down Tank Top! (surgery prep)

Bear with me, this is my first tutorial ever! It's probably too much information but better safe than sorry Last summer I underwent major surgery on my torso which resulted in a prolonged period of the inability to lift my arms. This, combined with the warm weather, made wardrobe prep very important! I was told I needed button-down shirts or things I didn't need to lift my arms up to put on. Alas, I found availability in stores for anything remotely cute and season concious lacking..
