Cute DIY Tank Top Idea

Hello everyone! Since its spring I thought it would find a cute DIY shirt project for those who are interested to try. I have done a few in the past but stopped. I guess I ran out of shirts to design and got caught up in other things. Maybe its time I grab my scissors, needle and thread and try it again! We have had a very busy life lately with a wedding to plan, a two year old and trying to move on with life so all of my crafting has went into the wedding so far. With that said, tonight I will not be sharing my own creation but I will show you how a crafty lady designed a cute top with her own materials around the house! Very simple. Very cute! Lets go!
 
Meet Jessica!
Anthropologie Inspired Refashion
 
 
She runs her own blog like many of us and put step by step instructions on how to create this adorable top! I personally think the bow is cute, especially for spring! Undecided if you want to try this? I'll tell you what, she only used a few things:
 
A knit shirt or tank top
fabric for the neck and the bow
Scissors and items needed to sew
 
That's it!
 
Click here and follow her easy steps to create this cute top =)
Its great to recycle old clothing and make a new style out of it!
 
 
 
 

Neat Bathroom Ideas!!

Welcome to my blog! Today I thought I would share some neat bathroom ideas that I found while browsing through Pinterest! Who knows, you might want to try them in your own home =)
Check it out:
 
*NOTE: These are not my creations so please click on the links below the photos and give credit to those who put these up =) Thank you!
 
Moving along...
The first idea I found was using a plate stand as a holder for your bathroom counter top needs! It saves some space and adds a little style to the room. You can find similar plate stands at a lot of different stores. One being Target.
 
Bathroom...
 
 
Here is the second idea I loved:
 
Use regular curtains and take rod to the ceiling. hang towel bar above the toilet
 
 
Notice the extra long shower curtain idea? I really like the fact that you can open it from the center! Its actually two long window curtains! Move the rod and hang it up below the ceiling instead! Pretty neat!

Next is a cute bathroom sign! Perfect for visitors or just a nice added touch to your home =)

Fun patio furniture!

Good evening readers! Even though spring is having a slow go this year, I am not holding back on my love for summer fun! We got a neat patio set last year. For the life of me I cannot remember where we got it but none the less, I found a few neat sets from Target and Walmart that are great!

Space savers! I love that idea! They are a bit spendy but very stylish and eye catching! Our local Target store had them out on display.

We have this from last summer brand new still sitting in our shed waiting to be used so I can't tell you how we like it yet but we heard a lot of good things about these zero gravity chairs =)
 
Last but not least... I just had to share a cute little find while looking at patio items one day...
Behold... my little owl lawn ornament/garden stake =)
I found him at Family Dollar for a whole 2 bucks... you can't go wrong!
