What A Wednesday!

The sun is finally out....

Although the weather is still cold for late April....

Therefore I am staying indoors....

And making cute cheery garlands made from my most smallest of vintage fabric scraps! Aren't these cool? I found the great idea from another great blog I am following and of course love reading! The only difference is that I hang mine directly from my ceiling in separate strands, she attaches hers and makes it a 'wind chime' sort of aspect...I also make my scraps a little bigger and much longer too...some of them I had to double up cause they nearly touch the floor!!!!!!! Now I do not sell any of these, I just made them for my own enjoyment around my household, along with countless other projects I make out of vintage fabrics around my house...

But I am certainly most proud of this creation by my own 2 hands! My newest pillow made from vintage fabrics! I also added a touch of lace too! I certainly may be no granny, but I am granny chic!!!!


This pillow smells like my grandma!!!! don't worry that's a good smell! I love how vintage fabrics and lace smell!



Now this is a rarity.....the last time my hair was this long was about 10 years ago, I usually keep it on the shorter side, and of course I am liking the fact that I have short bangs again, at the age of 15 I took a vow to grow them out, now at 28....back to square 1, but I actually like the way they look now then when I had bangs at 15, they seem different, more mature adult-like....
Hope my readers have a great day today! like I said, I am staying indoors and sewing and crafting away! not to mention I am having some serious chillaxing time with my girl kitties (as I just took at 45 second break and made a mad dash chasing Sabrina downstairs because that silly stinker ran off with a piece of my vintage fabrics.......arg.
