Ready for Spring!

Last week was Spring Picture Day at my daughter's school.  I'm totally digging the outfit she picked out and I wanted to share!

The maxi dress is from Target (this season), the denim jacket is from Gap Kids (thrifted) (here is a similar one), the bracelet is from Black Market Minerals and the sandals are from Rack Room Shoes (last summer).

Here is how I would recreate this look for me:

Are you ready for Spring?

{Spring} Fabric Cuff Bracelet

Last year I made this fabric cuff bracelet featuring a vintage button for a client in Florida:

This is one of those projects I almost couldn't bear to part with.  I always intended to make myself a matching one, but then came the winter, and long sleeves and coats wouldn't do it justice.

Today, my cousin from Florida contacted me about making a few items to raffle at a breast cancer walk in which she participates.  I was stoked when she wanted a similar cuff, because now I KNOW I will finally make one for myself.  As soon as her items are up, I will post them here for you to see.

In the meantime, if you are interested in ordering something similar for yourself, email me using the link above, or visit my Facebook page for more ideas.

Scrap Fabric Cuff

Here's a little project you can do with some simple fabric scraps.  This:

Can turn into this:

I love my new cuff! I found the vintage trim a few months ago at one of my favorite Land O' Lakes thrift stores.  The center fabric was a remnant piece of home decor fabric from Joanns and the base fabric was left over from my dish towels.  I covered a button with the same blue fabric and made a little loop to hold it together.  This entire project cost me less than $2 and took less than an hour.
