Love.

Want to know the best thing you can buy with $2? Fabric squares. I'm becoming slightly obsessed. Well, I love thicker headbands, which I think I can pull them off because of my slightly large forehead. :) I have one that I bought, and I thought to myself: I could make that! (You know you're a crafter when you refuse to buy something because you can make it yourself..) So I just experimented with a thread and needle..which is a lot harder than it seems..and sewed the hem and then the fabric to a section of a hair wrap. And BOOM! Instant headband. Next experiment...a headband that's reversible...

T-shirts, t-shirts...

Attention! Don't give away shirts that you don't use anymore...they can be put to good use! I think I have become a little obsessed..I've made three of these already! I'm a huge headband fan, and they are so simple to make.

Or you could pair it up with another one of my favorite things: braids! I mean, how cute is this? All thanks to a few t-shirts that I never wear anymore.

Flower necklace

I've decided to get a little fancy and make a necklace for myself. It was super easy to make, but time consuming! I used a chiffon fabric to make the flowers, and attatched them to a chain by way of a little felt.
I'd say my style is pretty simple, so this can dress it up a little bit!
