It occurred to me that I've been doing an awful lot of pinteresting and there are loads and loads of DIY ideas that I'm longing to try. Last night, I was hit with a burst of creativity and I decided that I was going to embark on some projects. In typical Patti-fashion, I started several projects and finished none of them.
Here are yesterday's starter projects:
Earring Holder
This is how it all started. I am tired of finding miscellaneous earrings everywhere. There's just not an organized way to keep them, so I decided it was high time to create.
Status: Frames are painted & ready to be strung and displayed. I can't decide if I want to use string or wire mesh. I want to be able to display a lot of earrings, but I still want it to look cute hanging on the wall. Decisions decisions. This is my inspiration.
The extremely large envelope clutch that was in this post.
Status: Pattern made. Must find material to make it & sew it up.
Paper Beads
Status: Cut out a billion triangles, made about a dozen beads and got bored. This is definitely a project to do while I'm watching Pretty Little Liars. Also, I realized I wanted bigger beads so I'm going to cut some new triangles.
Kate Spade Twirl-Inspired Canvas
Status: 2-inch circles are cut.
As if you couldn't figure out from my blog, I have a lot that I want to do and say. Is it ridiculous that last night after doing half {and sometimes not even half} of each craft, I was coming up with new projects to start today?
Also, in case you're curious this is my DIY specific pinterest board. Most of what's on there has a tutorial link unless it's jewelry, then it could go either way. I'm one of those people who look at things online and in stores and think, "That's so easy! I could make this." Okay, okay- half make it.
pinterest is just so addicting. can i get an amen?
ReplyDeleteAmen, sister. I've spent many wonderful hours just pinning away.
