Mission: Clutterific

I'm on a mission. I see this mess in my basement everyday. It's full of 1/2-done projects packed away in boxes, weird odds-n-ends, & random crafty stuff. I've even got a pile (or four) in my art studio. And it doesn't have to be that way. I'm tired of digging through the clutter trying to find some little item that never gets found anyway.
I've decided I need to do the whole "trash to treasure" thing. And I started with this....

This is a vintage toddler dress I bought last year at my favorite "Antiques in the Park" event. Yesterday I finally dug it out of my "create something fabulous from this" pile, sewed up the bottom & hung it from a vintage hanger. It's full of wooden peg clothespins---ready to help you hang dry your linens & undies from the clothesline! It's an adorable laundry accessory & it can TOTALLY be yours--just click HERE!

So, anyway, that is the beginning of my mission. I hate living in clutter. It's not as bad as it could be- I'm not a closet packrat. But I'm on my way. It's no fun having an unorganized mess which could actually be turned into something terrific! Thus my mission: This CLUTTER will be made into something TERRIFIC........ CLUTTERIFIC!

I'll share my creations along the way & hopefully inspire you to get to crackin' on that heap-0-mess in YOUR creative space!

Hair's Looking at You!

So, I told the hair-extraordinaire guy to go wild & do whatever he wanted. It's not a HUGE change. But, I look so shiny & stylish for a change. This is the only time I'll ever get it looking this good. If only I had a tiny guy with fancy hair scissors I could carry around in my pocket all the time...

And besides my pale, pale arms & big ole badonka-donk, the shirt looks pretty good! This is my newly reconstructed tee & I love it! I'm excited about making some more. The photographer was my 5 year old daughter. Pretty good there, girl!
