I was about to rip my hair out...

... until I FINALLY figured out my blog template.  I had a heck of a time figuring out the sidebar background color.  WhatEVer!  Doesn't it look nice and pretty now?  I think so.

I've been doing a lot of crafting lately.  Experimenting with a bunch of stuff:


I got the tutorial for this craft off Family Chic blog here.  Isn't it cute?!  Camilla's got some super fab and easy crafts on her blog.  You should check it out!


I also made some wall art on a budget:


This is made from recycled Toilet Paper rolls! Super easy and cheap!  All you have to do to make these are save a lot of toilet paper rolls.  Squish them to get that leaf shape. Glue the edges together (I used paperclips to keep each leaf together while the glue dried.  And I just used plain ol' white glue).  Then spray paint it any color.  Let that dry.  Then put it up on your wall! (I used nails in a variety of spots and kind of stretched the rolls onto them so they stay).

What'dya think?!? Pretty cool, eh?! (yes, I AM Canadian! ha!)

Oo! Oo! Oo!!! Exciting giveaway!!! Sydney over at The Daybook posted a FANTASTIC giveaway this morning on her blog to win a THEIT gift certificate for their fashion camera bags!! I want that! (It would be nice not to have to use my old backpack from high scool and have a place for my computer cord and books. THEIT bags are much more chic).  Go check it out! There are four ways to enter and I did them all :D (hehe!)

Okay, gotta get some homework done so that I can sew more awesome outfits! I'm working on a line made with recycled T-shirts that you all should keep your eyes pealed for! Okay? Alright...
