Dye Objects

The second spring hits, I’m standing in front of my closet going, I am so sick of all my clothes, if I see that shirt again I’ll throw up, but I don’t have any money for new stuff, I’M SO TIRED OF EVERYTHING I OWN. You know that feeling? Let’s kill it with instant-wardrobe-transformer (aka RIT dye). RIT is a brand of clothing dye that’s been around since the 1930s. Bookmarks. Adapted from Clare Youngs’s The Perfect Handmade Bag ($19.95; Cico), this cute carryall requires little more than a pair of small wooden spatulas and two tea towels ($15 each; motherlindas.com).

Bookmarks

Cut six strips of fabric from one towel. Two, measuring 33⁄4"W x 141⁄4"L each, will serve as the decorative horizontal bands at the top of the tote and should incorporate the towel’s graphics (as shown, left). The other four, measuring 31⁄2"W x 8"L, will form tabs for the bag’s handles. Turn under the long sides of each strip and press a 1⁄4" hem. To make a tab, topstitch one of the long sides of a 31⁄2"W x 8"L strip near the edge. Lay the second towel on a flat surface, right side up. Flip the towel right side down. Fold the towel in half, wrong sides together. Tiny Polaroid Magnet. Hi there!

It’s felt like forever since I’ve last blogged, and has felt like an eternity since I’ve done anything crafty and nifty. Since my morning sickness has gone into full speed (yes, we’re expecting our third this fall!) I haven’t felt like myself. But nothing like inspiration to wake one out of a reverie — or nightmare, in my constantly sick state. I came across these DIY Pantone chip magnets on How About Orange and wanted to do something similar. You will need: Cardboard (mine was the backing of a sketchbook — much thicker than the back of a regular spiral bound notebook) or 2-3 sheets of white cardstock or poster board spray-mounted together to use as a sturdy backing to the magnetsOpaque white marker (necessary only if your cardboard is not white) Craft knife Metal straight edge/ruler Clear packing tape or frisk film. Fancy Journal. Since I was a little girl I have loved to write.

Fancy Journal

I got my first journal when I was 8 and I still have it… Do you see the Strawberry Shortcake small book that says “Mi Diario”? “Mi Diario” means “My Journal”. I have kept a journal since I received that first one. I love to read them, share them with my husband and children and remember things that otherwise I would have forgotten. Weeks ago I got the privilege to visit with beautiful Jen and share over at her EXTRAORDINARY blog Our family theme for 2012 is DREAM BIG! It is my hope that these journals collect for many years to come our dreams, the accomplishments of some and perhaps the hope for others to come true someday. Just in case you missed it here is the TUTORIAL You’ll find these note books pretty much anywhere. These are the small ones… about the size of your hand. The Tutorial The Front and Back Covers. The first thing I did was to trace the shape of the cover { from the end side until the black line } into a piece of craft paper.
