DIY: Cowboy Booties. DIY: Wrap-turned-Scarf. Anthro Knock-Off: Scrappy Scarf Necklace. Remember this Anthropologie Scarf Necklace from our Monochromatic Challenge?
$148 was just a little too much for me to spend (apparently it wasn't too much for others because the necklace has since sold out!) On an accessory, so I attempted to whip up my own version using scrap fabric. Here is what I came up with: This was a really fun way to make my scrap bin into something trendy for the fall!

While perusing Pinterest one evening, I came across an intriguing tutorial on the wonderful art of needle felting.
I had to learn more – especially after realizing it entailed repeatedly stabbing a needle up and down into a piece of fabric or sweater. A satisfying stress reliever that results in something wearable? Sign me up. And now that I can officially call myself a needle felting maven (and nerd), trust me when I say that you’re going to have a blast with this technique. So grab your supplies and let’s get started on a pair of heart shaped elbow patches! You’ll need: With the sweater on, place a piece of tape about half an inch below the elbow. Align and center the bottom of the cookie cutter along the top of the tape. Fill the cutter, spreading out the wool fibers evenly. At the base of all felting needles are tiny, sharp burrs, which grab and interlock the wool fibers.
Continue stabbing away until the surface is flat and even. Carefully peel the sweater away from the foam. DIY Macrame Bracelet. Growing up by the beach in Southern California, the ability to knot a macrame bracelet was practically a right of passage.
Although those days are long behind us, we’ve never forgotten the ever-so-simple square knot technique. This time, however, we’re replacing hemp and wooden beads for more updated elements like colorful nylon cord and glossy metal charms. Happy knotting! You’ll need: Start by cutting the knotting cord into two 30 inch, two 20 inch and one 10 inch lengths. Center the 30 inch cord under the two middle strands. Pull tightly and slide the knot up to the top. Finish the 2nd half of the square knot by folding the left cord over the middle strands and under the right cord. Pull tightly and repeat the steps – left, right, left, right . . . To finish the knots, thread one of the cords onto a needle and sew up the center of 3-4 knots along the backside.
Repeat the same step on the other cord. After sewing up both knotting cords, trim away any excess. DIY Midsummer Flower Crown.
