DIY Faux Fabric Milk Glass Pumkins

Wednesday, September 4, 2013
What is going on people! It's already time to start putting out our FALL decor and if one person is ready it would be me! A long time ago I had a problem with this season and the colors that went along with it. Don't get me wrong, I love orange, brown and yellow but I love white, black and green much more. Now the question is how can I create FALL decor with these colors. I am starting with this faux fabric milk glass pumpkin. The name is sorta tricky which is why I love it. I transformed a bright orange pumpkin into a soft delicate work of art. I promise, if you do 20 of these and place them all over your house they will make you smile from ear to ear. There are so many options with them and I love that they make any space feel clean and crisp.
Wanna see how I made them? Come see!

Bitty Bow Headbands (No Sew!)

They add a little girly flair to any outfit.  Here's my little girl.  She's almost 3 months old and I love putting a headband on her with her crazy hair flying out all around it.

DIY Neon Colorblock Cosmetic Bag

Monday, September 2, 2013
 I found this nifty cotton cosmetic bag at Michaels recently and had to pick it up!  It's a perfect blank canvas. This would make a great little pencil case for Back to School, too.  A little painter's tape, Tulip fabric paints, some angled paint brushes and in under thirty minutes you can make a custom bag with just a few splashes of neon.  Neon works best as an accent for maximum visual impact.  The quilting on the bag made it easy to create a colorblock pattern, which is vaguely chevron inspired, but given a fresh, asymmetrical spin.  I love this so much, I want to make a matching purse!
