Happy Coffee Day!

Short post today... School is keeping me quite busy! But today I will stop to say... Happy Coffee Day! (Totally didn't mean for that to sound like a poem... but I like it. hehehe.)

This could quite possibly be the best obscure holiday ever. I love coffee!! And I love that they dedicated an entire day to its yummy goodness! How are you going to celebrate? :)

Go forth and caffeinate!!

What to do with a box of t-shirts?

So my little brother has this "quirk" (obsession?) and has to wear a brand new white t-shirt every day. (Waste of money? uh, yeah.) - which means that he ends up with a TON of white t-shirts in great conditions! Me, having the oh-so-crafty cheap mind that I do, I asked him to hand over some of his leftovers. Great idea, right? Well lets just say, I have a terrible time keeping myself organized, and I like to take on projects and then finish them a year later. So there's a big box of t-shirts taking up space in my room. What to do with them? Do you have lots of spare t-shirts that you really don't need? Well here's a collection of great t-shirt tutorials to get you started! Mind you, I haven't actually done any of them... yet. But I will! And then I shall post pictures. I hope. Happy Crafting! <3

Braided Headbands
Ruffle Rosette Pillow
Rug!
And finally, this really cute fabric Wreath!

There are so many fun things do do with a t-shirt! What's your favorite t-shirt re-purpose? :)

Blanket WIP!

There it is!! My glorious blanket :) I love it... I just wish it were about 5 feet longer. Goodness, crocheting takes a long time! I'm back at school now and moved into my cute little apartment! (Hmm, I feel like a tour is in order once I get totally settled in.) Choir council elections are today, and I'm running for el presidente! We'll see what happens :) Now, back to stitching!
