DIY eveything!

Sorry it's been so long. I have made tons of new stuff I just haven't posted it in here. You can see it all at MY ESTY

But I did participate in the 2nd Saturdays and Sundays too even at SwapSmart. 4255 W Thunderbird Rd. This is the 3rd month I took part in this event. Sadly I did HORRIBLE. I spent more money than I made.


The 1st thing I did was pay to have an ad in a free newspaper in September. It is called Billards Table Talk

So everyone make sure to check your bars hotels whatever in September to see my ad! They print 10,000 copies so lets all REALLY hope that it does well for me. They compete with the New Times.. which all my AZ friend know is super bad ass. Heres to hoping it wasn't a waste of my hard earned money!



I did buy some really cool art though. It was spray painted onto an old record. YAY for upcycling! It was $20 for both of these and they will go perfect in my pool table room! Since I am decorating it Old Hollywood. You can get one or look at the others by clicking HERE!



I have some wholesale packs in the SwapSmart aisle A in the craft mall on consignment so please make sure to stop by! Amazing wholesale prices for everyone!

And I have lots of cool pre-made things at Girlfriends Craft House located at 7163 N. 58th Drive in Historic Glendale. So make sure you go there too! Here is my booth!



And well that is about all for right now. So I will leave you with this picture of the lovely Maddy in a pretty picture wearing one of my pretty $1 flowers!

So I decided to do a little post... what once was _____ is now ___!

I started with 2 pillowcases that I got from goodwill they were so bad ass I just had to get them! Here is a picture of 1 of the pillowcases before!



I did a little cutting..then some folding, then some sewing. A little more cutting and a little more sewing and got this! Added a little ribbon which I always have on hand!

What once was a my little pony pillowcase is now a child's long skirt and matching purse! :)



I thought the purse turned out damn cute the skirt was OK I decided to add a few pleats and they weren't straight :( I have never added a pleat to a skirt or dress though... so I suppose it was a learning experience. Given the chance to do it over I could make it much cuter! The 1st try usually isn't the most amazing.but I tried.

My next pillowcase was some little boys totally bad ass and well used batman pillowcase! I had fun with this one... and I decided that this is totally for me!

So once again I did some cutting, sewing, cutting, folding, sewing, cutting, and glue! Yes, Glue! What did I get?



I thought the my little pony one was so cute I decided to make myself this totally rad batman one! Dolled it up a little with a cute bow (that where I used glue) and some rad ribbon for the straps! It's like an organza with double sided satin edges!

So what once was a bad ass well used batman pillowcase is now my bad ass and totally new to me tote bag!
