It's T-Shirt Time

I'm impressed with myself on this post. 
1- Because I thought of the idea myself.
2- Because I even got a "that's cool" from my K.  I know I done good when I hear that!
I decided to get off my tuckus yesterday and do something productive.  Productive by my standards anyways...
This is my t-shirt time dance.  (hint: the scarf is the t-shirt)

My K had some old white t-shirts laying around.  You know the kinds...with the not so nice armpits?  Martha says to wash them with aspirin to remove those stains...haven't tried it yet but I'll believe her for now.  Sometimes she makes things look easier then they actually are.
Anyways, got the t-shirts, some RIT die, a bucket and my wooden spoon.

 I was happy to cut these suckers up.

Sewed 'em together to the length and width I wanted.

Then it was rubber band time. This was a nice little break, got to watch my dvr recording of Glee while doing this.

Pardon the squinting, I cant remember the last time my eyes were looking directly at the sun!

Nautical Knots

Just poppin' in for a quick little post today.

So, I have been checking out the jewelry aisle at the craft store lately.  When making my own jewelry , I usually use semi-precious gemstones but I've noticed how fashion jewelry is such a trend now that I wanted to try some out myself.  I liked the way it came out so much that I went back and bought some more so I posted them on my Etsy Shop.
