When I feel crafty.....


I make these!


Yo-yos for your hair!

All it is really is: a circle of vintage fabric with a 5" diameter, three buttons, and some thread.

You take the circle of fabric and sew in big stitches all around the edge. Then pull thread to gather the fabric at the top. Tie thread ends. snip. then sew the three buttons over the ugly gathery part. sew through yo-yo to flatten out. Then take a bobbie pin and stick it through the thread loops in the back and there you have it!

If this is confusing, I can post more pictures or even a video if ya'll are interested. :)

Loveliest of Wednesdays to you dear reader.

Spring



So I know first posts are always awkward so this is going to be a regular (though shorter) post. Have you ever noticed that when shoots start popping up, allergies kick in and birds sing more often, you feel very alive? I feel so today. Though it is a little chilly, life seems to be everywhere. Maybe it is just me but hey it is lovely.

Also we have a lovely tree in our backyard with white blossoms all over it. sigh.
