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!

JOE.
Inspired by poetry.
JOE.
By: Holly Anderson
Oh how you fill me up!
Some days in small doses
And other times with cups overflowing
But sometimes you leave me empty, wishing you would run through my veins
Oh how you make me race!
My heart, my energy, and sometimes
even my bladder
Oh how you awaken me!
You startle me from slumberland
As I escape the traps of unconscious oblivion
with your rich, savory, dark flavor
Oh how I cherish those long, sleepless nights
As my extremities jitter through the hours
And the sense of heavy eyelids surpass me
with every passing wink
But oh how I hate to remember
As I’m filling you up
That our relationship only goes
as deep as my coffee cup
