Recently I bought a skirt on the sale rack of Anthropologie. I really like it, but it is just a tiny bit too short and I feel a little uncomfortable wearing it. I have a couple other skirts that rarely get worn for the same reason.
Thank you for all of the sweet love on my Felt Flower Scarf ! Really, my goodness, I didn't expect so many people to be interested in it. I'm happy to share this tutorial for you on how to make one of your own! Materials needed: 1/2 yard of 72" Felt or Felted Wool (this measurement is to be safe... but you'll end up with some extra here for sure.) Scissors Needle and Coordinating Thread *optional - Fast Grab Tacky Glue or Hot Glue *optional - Small hook and eye
Felt Flower Scarf Tutorial
I have seen so many great tutorials recently about cleaning out stashes and re-purposing old clothes, and I thought it was about time that I tried it for myself. My husband had this old shirt that is really soft but doesn't fit quite right, so I wanted to find a few ways to make it work for a little guy instead. It turns out that a long sleeved mens shirt is a lot of material, so I got 2 projects out of 1 shirt.
