Charger DIY

Today has been a good day.
Friends.
Barbecue.
Gardens.
Crafts.
Wildflowers.
It was a fun, full day.
To make the day even better, I 'cute-ified' my iPhone charger!

Sun Hat Makeover

My family wishes for a garden.
The only problem is,
We are never home in the summer.
The garden would die if we weren't there to tend to it.
So to our delight,
Every summer, we tend a garden for some friends while they're on vacation.
My sisters love picking the berries.
I love snapping the green beans.
My mom loves watering,
And my dad loves eating the fresh veggies.
We have a great system going!
So my project today was created around my garden picking theme!

4th of July Drink Decor

Believe it or not,
I am not a big fan of fireworks.
They are loud,
Expensive,
And plain out annoying when your trying to sleep at night.
With this said,
The 4th of July night is not my favorite night.
BUT,
I love everything else about the 4th of July!
I love the cookouts,
The clothes,
The decorations,
And the freedom that we celebrate!
This year,
I want to make our 4th of July party adorable!
( Without fireworks. )
So I began by making the drinks adorable!

Sweet Stitched Wall Art

This morning I woke up at 5 o'clock,
And couldn't go back to sleep.
Ugh.
Oh well,
To look on the bright side of things,
I got my blog post done early!
I had planned my post for today late yesterday afternoon.
So I got out of bed,
And headed to my front porch swing to start on it.

Vintage Fabric Banner

Right now,
I'm hitting 2 birds with one stone.
Babysitting and blogging.
I'm cradling a sleeping baby boy with one hand,
And typing today's post with the other.
As I continue to type this post excessively slow,
I want to share with you my latest creation!
( Even though it might take me a while! )

Mini Chalkboard

I wish I was better at drawing.

When I was little,

my momma tried to get me to take art lessons.

At the time,

art wasn't my main interest,

so I didn't take the classes.

As I look back,

I really wish I had.

I would love to be able to write and draw pretty.

Maybe I will take a class now...

It's never too late.

Especially since I'm only 13!

Sorry,

I just needed to give myself a quick pep talk.

Now on to my mini chalkboard!

Fabric Flower Headband

I call my style "vintage cuteness".
(Yes, I made that name up.)
I also like a hint of the hipster look.
I love chevron, the color mint, and burlap.
To fit my playful style,
I made myself a headband.
I call it my "hippie headband."
