I'm back! This feels great :) I've had my baby and spent some time dedicating motherhood to my chidlers.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Ok so now for the crud- literally.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Have you ever scrubbed your nasty makeup drawer out and it's still so gross? I tried so many cleaners that would not get this stuff out. (I think this was my bronzer that "exploded" a while back)</div>

Then I had an idea. I actually use a natural lotion for my eye makeup remover. If lotion can take the crap off my eyes, why not my drawers?</div>

<br />
<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">*forgive the ugly brown pics at first- It took me a couple shots to get the camera working how I wanted it. And my fabric is really like the pretty mustard color up top*</span>
<br />
<br />I cut out two squares to the size I wanted the full pillow to be.
<br />Then I cut strips and sewed the edges shut. You can then sew down the middle of the strip and find the string at the end that will allow you to hold while you ruffle up the material.

<br />I pinned them on so the line in the middle of the strip would line up straight and
<br />then I just sewed right on top of that line (very imperfectly- no one looks that close unless they're ocd right?)
<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7-FEZi4IcV47F1bTnAcC9bL4H8SmmmcZsXLUQ6gTKmvAZewpxI3RwCON72WDwijwd_g1bYuCZOikV7WxtEqTVDpsux30ZLzmYFMJhL0MoKpxXMk4azmGZ-zjNZVMWW-WWvSB-tSNEn29V/s1600/DSCN1617.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7-FEZi4IcV47F1bTnAcC9bL4H8SmmmcZsXLUQ6gTKmvAZewpxI3RwCON72WDwijwd_g1bYuCZOikV7WxtEqTVDpsux30ZLzmYFMJhL0MoKpxXMk4azmGZ-zjNZVMWW-WWvSB-tSNEn29V/s400/DSCN1617.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5648235201048884962" border="0" /></a>
<br />After the strips are on, I put the back part of the pillow on top of the strips and sewed the pillow almost completely shut (make sure the strips are on the inside so when you turn it inside out they will be on the *right side* of the pillow)
<br />on the side edges, I sewed right over those so I didn't have to worry about the ends.
<br />

<br />See how the ruffles are on the inside of the pillow?
<br />
<br />At the very end of sewing your square shut, leave enough open to stuff when you turn it inside out.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjD_mSOYeSxvjIVLplqL_IecnvLjw8IYH61rh7pksmUjjQ4q33iSppp3R-wNmwf3Kt_vCNITxifB9gJvGcEDq79zx73OoOpyJeyt6tAUh9H5ik__T75BKRRh2pZdje4USKpdRTacLk8zNY-/s1600/DSCN1619.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjD_mSOYeSxvjIVLplqL_IecnvLjw8IYH61rh7pksmUjjQ4q33iSppp3R-wNmwf3Kt_vCNITxifB9gJvGcEDq79zx73OoOpyJeyt6tAUh9H5ik__T75BKRRh2pZdje4USKpdRTacLk8zNY-/s400/DSCN1619.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5648236560632006082" border="0" /></a>
<br />This is how much I allotted to be able to shove tons of stuffing in.
<br />p.s. kind of a fun thing- I took 3 cotton balls and dabbed some orange oil scent on them and hid them inside the batting (that way none of them would touch the fabric and get oil on it)-
<br />just an extra fun thing to make your pillow smell sooooo good.
<br />Lavender and peppermint are also good choices.
<br />

<br />
<br />Then I took a white piece of fabric and sewed the edges shut.
<br />I then folded it again about and inch and sewed on the outside of the fabric
<br />to make "pleats" (I hope I'm using the correct term here)
<br />
<br />I sew 5 of those.
<br />Then you can wrap it around your pillow and decide how tight you want it to fit, measure and sew it together then slip it on.

<br />And there you go. Sorry no exact measurements were used.
<br />It was more of an eyeball project.
<br />But now I have an awesome cheaply made pillow.
<br />
<br />(I used a mustard color fabric from walmart for $2. something a yard!- I probably only bought
<br />1 -1/2 to 2 yards.)
<br />Make sure to buy some stuffing as well if you don't have that on hand.
<br />I've even seen new packages at DI that people have gotten rid of.

Except for house #3, 8, and 14. Which I absolutely LOVED. Sadly enough these photos don't do justice. my favorite decorated house was #14 and it was done by a gal from "<a href="http://www.4-chairs.com/">4 chairs</a>" Her style in the house reminded me of a beautiful color filled version of an "Alice Lane" look and I just sat there and drooled. I leaned over to my hubby and said "ok, you see, this is what pure beauty is made of ;)" The nursery was especially to die for and I'm considering painting my boys room all over again!<br /><br />On a random note, I am liking this ---> http://www.westelm.com <--- website for rugs right now. so stinkin gorgEous.<br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiHa2U9TYuPg0V7p47g5205Oq91oCjsP29XwO70Et0SXXqIpSp7JCwgYUchJPtE9M1xH-vXLVLeIIJtxfjJ2C_OC0qnBmXNIQ8_t_AQKNi011ES20crXibOA9KCkczn96uQQN4-BFd44Wb/s1600/DSCN0993.JPG"><img style="display:block;

I mean, I am talking paint, rugs, pillows, curtains, everything!!!<br /><br />I have been working fast to get it done. I've already bought the "paneling/beadboard" type stuff for my walls. I just have to paint the walls before I can hang it up.<br /><br />Above is my "Olioboard" where I've put together an idea of what I want it to look like in our cozy little place. Eeek! I am so excited!<br />And the best part, I am doing it all for stinkin cheapness. I'm even making my very own huge jumbo shaggy white rag rug! Ya I know, crazy and a bumload of work but saving bucks is what I'm all about friends. I'll post each project I work on along the way!<br /><br /></div>Before:<br />ug, in all it's browness everywhere.

You can change the items in the glass to whatever you want to represent the occasion, photos, colors, buttons etc...<br /><br />The 2 silver plates and two glass vases were from the dollar store, and the bottom piece was some kind of fruit bowl for 25 cents at the DI. Use beads of hot glue to glue the top of the vases to the plate so that you can remove it and change out the decor. (the vases are upside down)<br />And that's it, nothing special or crazy, just a easy throw together craft I did for the cupcakes. *It's all about cupcakes* :)<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a id="myphotolink" href="http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=344731&id=144818202231736"><img id="myphoto" src="http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/hs279.snc6/180713_169311053115784_144818202231736_344737_5572995_n.jpg" style="" /></a>Jennhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16093173718173199727noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5635329503459855282.post-64335216528784334662011-02-04T23:42:00.000-08:002011-02-08T16:11:11.046-08:00Not so cool DIY trip<div style="text-align: center;"> So today I finally got out of the house. I checked out DI.<br />Well I decided I wanted to find a few skirts that I could <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">beautimatize</span>... Of course I am going to try and find a chunky frame or something cool while I am there. But I decide instead of going to the frames first, to look for skirts...<br /><br />BAD IDEA!<br /><br />*note to future*** check frames FIRST!!!<br /><br /><br />As I finished, I head towards the frame room and out from the room walks this chick with an AMAZING gold mirror<br />similar to this<br /><img src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_jmGrRJLf8J4/TULizt8j3HI/AAAAAAAAAE0/FesOkviVs2Q/s320/027%255B1%255D.JPG" border="0" height="320" width="212" /><br /><br />And I about cried I had missed it!! If I would have gone in there like 5 minutes earlier I probably <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">could've</span> snatched it up first! <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">bleh</span>... That's fine....<br /><br /><br />Then I get to the frame area and this other lady picks up this beautiful *chunky *thick *frame- and nothing else is left in the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">pickins</span>.....<br /><br />She eyeballs it, not sure if she wants it- I'm saying "you DON'T! You really don't!" =<br /><br />= she does.<br /><br />Then I look around frantically, my transform sensors are going crazy in needs of something to change into beauty. I see some rod looking decorative items over on a shelf.<br /><br />And to my left the lady with the chunky frame is heading the same direction!<br /><br />I move up the pace a bit with my 2 yr old boy in the cart screaming<br /> "lighting! lightning!" (aka: lightening <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">McQueen</span> from cars) - what <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">tha</span> heck? <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">ok</span>, child calm down, lightning is not here.... <br /><br />I get there just in time to have her dash in front of me and snatch the item I was eying! What is this? No one can share?- well, guess I would be selfish too ;)<br />My little boy is still crying for lightening- I snap out of it and finally pay attention to him. He points to a cart with a giant lightening <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">McQueen</span> in it (very excited) and just then a guy walks up to the cart with the the cool lightening mcqueen car. "Well that's taken, sorry <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">bubba</span>".<br /><br />What a day. This is like black <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9">Friday</span>.<br /></div>Jennhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16093173718173199727noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5635329503459855282.post-50703388182497135132011-01-30T16:08:00.000-08:002011-01-30T21:28:39.751-08:00PosterBoard Flower $4.50 Total!<div style="text-align: center;"><br />So I saw this tutorial on <a href="http://www.thenester.com/2011/01/how-to-make-a-sunburst-mirror.html">TheNestingPlace</a><a href="http://www.thenester.com/2011/01/how-to-make-a-sunburst-mirror.html">.</a><br /><br />She made it out of poster board and spent $25 for hers.<br />(Mostly because she used a real mirror that she got- It is stinkin<br />cute by the way and wish it was mine)<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnaYBxX8B8wQpX8XpzeWWh_fihO9VM1ZzFtCbXCIDcPVaPXzxFTImOOLkhJsyPaNzRlI3o6vW9p2_xQs8nMbcaq3BTYyVOlOKX2Nxk19a58s7ZUnmXSgPJ-UEGPd6EJhdsattEiCvz3Qxr/s1600/flowerplumrenderings.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 289px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnaYBxX8B8wQpX8XpzeWWh_fihO9VM1ZzFtCbXCIDcPVaPXzxFTImOOLkhJsyPaNzRlI3o6vW9p2_xQs8nMbcaq3BTYyVOlOKX2Nxk19a58s7ZUnmXSgPJ-UEGPd6EJhdsattEiCvz3Qxr/s400/flowerplumrenderings.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5568135515298922354" border="0" /></a>(My poor husband has to be the model- he was not very thrilled.)<br /><br /><br />I decided to make one for cheaper- and I didn't have to go<br />scavenger hunting for a mirror, I made a look a like myself.<br />So just so you know, this is more like the "chadders" version of In-N-Out<br />rather then In-N-Out itself, but hey I'm on a budget and it works.<br /><br /><ol><li>Buy a circle shape piece of wood from Hobby Lobby for about $1.45</li><li>Take a piece of tin foil or if you have silver wrapping paper (looks even better) and cut a small circle to fit in the middle.

<br />However I don't have the funds right now to buy a piece of artwork.. and as much as I love the red letters for the vowels, it doesn't go with my decor colors. So I decided to make my own.
<br />
<br />I cut the back up...

<br />Inserted a piece of canvas all crinkled up. ( I wanted it to look like old school paper)
<br />( it ended up looking like cloth instead after I was finished with it)

<br />(Now it was white instead of the greenish border.)
<br />(And it didn't cover up the pencil since it's canvas and spray paint is thin)
<br />
<br />Then I colored in the letters with black and blue (instead of the red) and painted white over all the pencil marks. It would've been easier to erase the pencil marks before spray painting though.

<br />
<br />*Note to keep in mind. If you have a printer big enough, it would be a lot easier to just print out the alphabet and stick it in. Also if you do it on canvas, it looks like cloth in the frame- kind of feels more childlike- good if you're going for that look- Not if you want something more clean for a front room maybe.</div>Jennhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16093173718173199727noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5635329503459855282.post-32142139379345076382011-01-05T11:59:00.000-08:002011-01-05T12:13:00.012-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtFPfioDPMuPqlR-bg9zZqVyeOl5lz-oXoAFK_skJNpDM38MouTbZFzvjXjTibRlePhE8Kqv6WO5XPnr8T7ykS0MJeveOxLiYoUb29Bk4stoM8fOLpks_kEOZWarn1CR4WWLqWioJwvWqo/s1600/DSCN3868.jpg"><br /></a><div style="text-align: center;">So this past summer, I was at a yard sale and I've always wanted one of these<br />cool things...<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSwaWuqNeQ5ftSPww_AHZeAMrRLR9mQe0M5Rwj3tkYtAFjbzZrafvF0uBXhD04CxjBUb0YoeDFaMc36PS15MADRmkCkcwr8L_SiV7y-e2dtHr8xXzCGpwIVK7UIHtxSOkxBOSF5Yjs_bTw/s1600/asdf.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 155px; height: 366px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSwaWuqNeQ5ftSPww_AHZeAMrRLR9mQe0M5Rwj3tkYtAFjbzZrafvF0uBXhD04CxjBUb0YoeDFaMc36PS15MADRmkCkcwr8L_SiV7y-e2dtHr8xXzCGpwIVK7UIHtxSOkxBOSF5Yjs_bTw/s400/asdf.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5558795886830123634" border="0" /></a><br />Well I didn't find one of those, but I found one of these for $2!<br />Later as I was looking in Quilted Bear, I saw this exact item for about 20ish bucks!<br />But I'll admit, I hated the brown chip off look.
