Thinking Spring!

Though the temperature today is only in the 20's in Cape May, it's already spring at the dollar store.  I went in this morning to stock up on some glue sticks and saw these bright and cheery place mats - well obviously, I couldn't resist.  I guess that is what is referred to as an "impulse purchase."  At least it only cost me $4.00.  When I got home, I realized that I already had some orange place mats.  So I decided to make the old ones into a laptop case and call it an "impulse craft." At least that was free!

 

 

New Bag Out of Old Jeans

We are having a 50% off sale on women's jeans and pants at VIMspirations this week so I made this.  I used a teeny tiny pair of jeans, a necktie for the bottom and the strap, a button down shirt for the lining, and finished it off with some buttons and a pin. Come on over and check it out - its for sale.  Or buy a pair of jeans for $3.00 and make your own!
