Springy Flowers!
I want to show you how to make these adorable flowers. They are great because they are so versatile. You can put them on head-bands, clips, pins, even bracelets!
Supplies: Some fabric (depends on how big you're making your flower)
Felt
Hot glue gun
Optional: Beads or buttons to glue in the middle
Something to put the flower on
1. Cut out 18 circles of fabric in 6 different sizes. To make a flower about this size-
-the largest circle should have, roughly, a 4" diameter. Don't freak out trying to make each circle perfect-lopsidedness adds to the rustic look. If you want something uber modern though, you probably should be more careful.
2. Fold each circle in half, and in half again. You should get a triangle. Glue shut. Don't use too much glue-just a bit near the tip of the petal.
3. Once you have all the petals finished, cut a circle of felt. it doesn't need to be too big-a 1 1/2" diameter should be good. Once again, everything depends on how big your flower is.
4. Glue down the biggest petals in a circle. Now the medium sized one. Next the little ones.
5. (optional) Glue a button or beads in the middle.
6. You're done! Now glue to whatever you want!
Tip: For the lace flower below, I took regular white lace and dyed it in tea for a vintage effect. Use your imagination and create your own styles!

Collage!
Hey hey! Just wanted to clarify some things! The only catch to my having this blog is that I can't share any personal info. So in all of the pictures that I post you will never see my face. Anyway, I also wanted to show y'all my collage!
[sorry everything is backwards! I can't flip it!]
I am making it super-huge (it's rolled up right now) so I can put it over my bedroom door. You can find stuff to clip everywhere! Coupons that come in the newspaper on Sundays, catalogs that come in the mail, and (my fave!), whenever my library has a book sale, on the last day all the magazines are free. Collage heaven!! Magazines are awesome cause you can just get one's that have stuff that you like in them, and then your guaranteed to good clips! I haven't done it yet, but soon I'm gonna write out the lyrics to some of my fave songs and put that on there too! So exciting!!

Launch Of The Super Spring Revamp!
Hey guys!
I'm going to tell you about my fashion project now! I'm sure you have been thinking about this day and night:P Drum roll please… *drum roll*
SUPER SPRING REVAMP!!!!!
I went through all my spring & summer clothes and weeded out all the pieces that were too small or needed sprucing up. They are now in a pile on my dresser. Every week I'll show you how to make something new, fresh, and super-cute out of stuff you already had! (I'm very into recycling) Here's your first revamp:
Magnificent Mini - With Pockets
Supplies:
1 tee-shirt
Suggestion: Read through all the instructions before starting-I'v messed up lots of things because of not doing this.
1. Cut a boatneck to fit your waist.
2. Cut off bottom depending on how short you want it.
3. Sew sleves together--these are the pockets.
4. Sew what you cut off the bottom onto the boatneck.
5. Turn inside-out.
Voila! Now you have a cute new skirt!
