Cute as a button

I promise my next post will be funny and entertaining, but for now I wanted to brag about share my latest craftventures.

Craft supplies

I know you're jealous of my vintage Lisa Frank tape measure

Item 1

Skirt with pockets. I made this awhile ago but now it’s warming up so I can actually wear it.

Modeling my skirt

Ah it's too bright and saturated out!

Item 2

Beach bag. I’m not in love with this yet, but we’ll see how it does on it’s test run to Hawaii.

I'll be in the house on the right, under the trees, by tomorrow evening

 

Item 3

I searched erverywhere for a straw fedora I could wear without feeling like a tool, and finally found this one at Urban Outfitters. Adorable bow, but what if I’m not wearing black?

Original hatSo I took some leftover fabrics and made a new band I can button over the old one, threw together some yo-yos with some spare buttons (I have a bag o’ extra buttons that you get with all your buttony shirts. I’ve used the tiny little ziploc bags they come in to give out seeds as part of a bridal shower gift.), and Bob’s your uncle!
