Make a braided t-shirt rug

Select a few old t-shirts from your closet, a thrift store, or your Aunt Marcy's NASCAR t-shirt collection. I used 5.5 t-shirts to make a rug that is approximately 18" in diameter, but if you have more time and patience than I do or if you want a bigger rug, you could use more shirts. Next step is to prepare the t-shirts by cutting them and turn them into yarn. I used a method that I found on YouTube but I took some photos of this step for here. You will want to flatten the shirt out in front of you, but face it sideways so that one sleeve points toward you and the other points away from you. You should end up with a really long strip of fabric from your t-shirt. Related:  Crafts

DIY Iron Transfer Tote While wandering aimlessly around the fabric store, I stumbled across an iron transfer pen. I was fairly certain it would be too good to be true, maybe best just for mapping out embroidery lines, but I’m here to say that it works SO good. Instead of the vinyl or hard feel of other iron on transfers, the final version of this is smooth to the touch since it’s basically an ink transfer. It’s probably the easiest image transfer I’ve ever done (not that I’m excited or anything). Time: 20 minutes Materials: canvas tote, iron transfer pen, iron, paper Cost: ~$8 I used one of the the free #GIRLBOSS printables Jordan Brantley made for my blog last year, but you could use any design you want. Trace over your design with the transfer pen. Place design ink side down and iron for 1-3 minutes. One of the coolest parts about this type of transfer is that you can use the same paper again and again without having to reapply the ink! Super cool right?!

Director Jewels: DIY "Mistletoes" Baby Footprint Christmas Craft I am proud to say that this year, 98% of my gifts are wrapped and ready for Christmas morning - and have been for several days. That means that I have a lot more time this year to think about Christmas craftiness! Last year, I had a newborn and was pretty exhausted and stressed. I finished our family's stockings two days before Christmas. Right after I finished the stockings last year, we decided to be all kinds of crazy and make an adorable craft project to give to all of Lincoln and Addie's grandparents. I found the inspiration for this craft on Pinterest, via the blog Pinkie for Pink. DIY Mistletoes Baby or Toddler Footprint Christmas CraftSupplies Needed -Small Canvas (I used a 6x8 rectangle and a slightly larger oval) - just big enough to fit the feet you are stamping. It's a pretty self-explanatory project, but I will include some basic instructions! 1. 2. 3. 4. Do you have any crafty holiday decor that you love?

Welcome To Smash Books DIY Personalized Journal » Loralee Lewis This is a great DIY project that makes it easy to personalize a notebook for journaling or note taking. Make one for yourself, as a gift, for a birthday, Easter or Mother’s Day! But be warned: these can be addicting to make!

Fabric Covered Books A little over a year ago I shared the fabric covered book I made to put in our guest bathroom to class the joint up a bit. Well, a few days ago I went bananas and started covering all of my thrift store and yard sale hardback books with fabric. So I thought I’d share this super easy and inexpensive DIY with you. Some of you may wonder why covering books with fabric is necessary. Answer: it’s not. So a few days ago I went a little crazy covering a bunch of books with fabric, which helped me perfect my book covering technique. This book debacle has solidified my boycott of Goodwill. Now, I’ll dismount my soap box and head into the meat of this post– the tutorial. I prefer to use interesting books for this project– ones that will surprise the people who open them. To recap, you’ll need: booksfabrichot glue gunscissors butter knifespray adhesive Before you get started, I recommend ironing the fabric if there are any creases in it. Do the same for the front cover. Grab your glue gun.
