This image above is proof that you can make the best out of the space that you have. Currently I am lucky enough to a whole room devoted to my crafts but it’s definitely not as beautiful as this little office. One of the my goals for the summer is to reorganize my craft room to make it chic and completely functional. Here is a great resource from ReadyMade to help you make the most out of your space.

baby shower invites

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

I recently designed some baby shower invites for a friend. The sex of the baby was unknown so I tried to stick with a neutral color palette and design. The invites were printed on a laser printer then fabric scraps were attached and sewn on to form mini bunting. I was very happy with the results!

Turn old sweaters into something new. It’s the simplest form of re-purposing that old sweater you never wear anymore—why didn’t I think of this?! Designer Haik Avan­ian and her mom are the masterminds behind reknit. For the month of Feb­ru­ary, send an old sweater to Avanian’s mom and she will transform it into a fabulous pair of cut-off gloves. Each month a different item will be selected based on user votes.
