toot time!!

this is my FIRST ever tutorial!!
how exciting!!  ^.^

i decided to create a wreath... got pretty inspired the last few days lookin' at all these different ones that are available thru crafty folk...

i think it turned out sOoo adorable.. & so, i thought i'd share a lil' toot with you so you could make one, too..  :)

shall we begin??

FIRST:
grab a WIRE hanger.. (if you don't have one, go get sumthin dry-cleaned again..)
stretch out the wire until you've got a nice roundish sumthin..

THEN:
find a rag or two & cut it into strips.. (i used an old towel..) wrap it around the hanger over & over & over again until you've got the WHOLE thing-a-ma-jigga covered in rags..  lay it flat as you go so the strips don't shift.

NEXT:
you wanna get some fiberfill (the kind that's used for quilting cuz it's a long one piece thingy) cut a strip or two of that about 3 inches wide & wrap that around the strips of rags..

THEN:

wrap with yarn.. (honestly at this point, i didn't know what i was doin', but this seemed *right* lol)

turns out the yarn will kinda tie the other stuff together..

NEXT:
collect *stuff* to prettify your wreath.. i wanted mine to be made of mostly felt, so that's what i used.. as a base, i chose one color (i found this cheap sweatshirt poly-sumthin to use as the base color & wrapped it inside out so that it would have the same fuzzy texture as my felt decorations)

i discovered that my glue gun was my best friend (who knew?) i cut lil' leaves & flowers out & just played with the pieces until it felt *right*. i added embroidery floss to give it a lil' more
definition..

i think it turned out pretty cute.. you? :)

fuzzy leaves..

i discovered these sweet wreath concepts that are very pretty.. thinkin' of makin' one, but it's way more complicated than just choosing one.. turns out i'd like to make sumthin a lil' less perfect..

irregular makes a wreath look a lil' more realistic, no?

sOo.. i went thru the wreaths and grabbed my picks that i thought combined would make the *perfect* door adornment..

leaves! sweet lil' idea.. but they need to be more than one color.. in *my* opinion.. 

sOo.. add pops of color like this one has!

& these flowers in varying sizes would be awesome...

 i'm gonna give it a shot.. wish me well.. this should be fun!  :)

*confession* #327

WHY confession #327, tea?  cuz it sounds cool, right?

confession #1 sounds whack..  like i never had to confess anything until now.. pshhh..  lol

anyway.

i NEED this stuff *right* now.
i'm not even playin'!
check out this shirt.. if it wasn't for the price tag attached, i'd hafta snatch that one up! :)
(remember.. i'm the girl with the $5 price "rule")

 & of course with the pants.. one word.. *STYLINNNN*

i actually have a blanket with this kind of knitted pattern.. i'm feelin' sOoo tempted right about now.

anyway.. inspiration can only get u so far.. then you either hafta start BUYing or MAKEing..

it's up to you.. me. which gets pretty complicated.. i'm one of those girls who doesn't really care for sewing..  *ick*
i'm tempted to buy some ol' skool patterns, though.. maybe that would make the journey a lil' more exciting.. we'll see..  ;)

*remember* confessions are good for the soul. <3

sometimes..

there's really nothin' to say..

sOoo.. i found a cute pic.. cuz i'm good at finding cute pics, i guess.. lol

and that's good enough for me..

it ain't mine either.. i just grabbed it from the good ol' WWW..  go figure..

then, i thought maybe i'd share a lil' doodle with u.. cuz sumtimes that can be a fun thing to do, too..

i hope you're enjoying your weekend.. <3

new groove..

yea.. an iphone 4s..

the s apparently is for sexy.  heh heh..

the first thing my j-boy #1 told *siri* is that he's my man!

that's what i'm talkin' bout!

sexy much?

very. ;)

emotions..

funky kinda day.. makes me wish i had an *off* button..
i'm sure i'm not the only one who goes thru stuff like this, but when i'm goin' thru it seems sOoo real.. & sOoo bleh.

ewww.

sO.. i decided to put down a haiku for you.. maybe you can relate to my yuck.

a haiku.

i need control NOW.
but i'm a girl.. and moody. o_O
what's up with this yuck??

a lil' doodle.. she's a bit moody, eh? :)

okay.. so i'm no poet.. i'm aware of that. but aren't haikus 'spoze to make a girl feel cool?  lol..

i've been trying to learn guitar forever, too.. but i'm no guitarist either. sOo.. i'll just doodle guitar-playin' babes in the meantime..  *sigh*

feelin' better, by the way.. 

don't ever end the way you began - if it's sucky. ;)
