Home Style
As I mentioned yesterday one of the surprising results of my Nothing New 2011 Challenge is that I am honing in on my personal style. I spoke a little about my clothing style yesterday and want to talk a little more about my home style today.
Window & Desk Oh My
I've been doing a few inexpensive home projects lately. As I've mentioned before we only have 715 square feet in our apartment so there is a limit to the number of home projects I can do. Somehow I still manage to keep changing it to make it closer to what I want.
Potholders for Prudent Baby
Have you heard of Prudent Baby? They have adorable projects, yummy recipes and amazing giveaways. They are currently giving away TWO amazing Brother sewing machines. All you have to do is make a potholder using their potholder tutorial as a basic start. No problem. I made two. You know, double the chances.
Small House Tour Part 1
I'm going to start showing you my house, one part at a time. My husband and I, along with our 2 year old son live in a 715 square feet, one bedroom apartment. It's small but very well designed and if I do say so myself, quite organized.
Sweater to Pillow
I have been wanting a knit pillow for a few years now but until recently couldn't find a way to make it happen. I considered doing the knitting myself for about a millisecond but thankfully came to my senses. I am not a knitter.
Laptop Bag
Oh Amy Butler. How I love you. Remember when I got a few free patterns from Amy Butler? If not, you can read about it here. Anyway, one of those patterns was the laptop bag and iPod cover. I decided to make the laptop bag to match my new weekender bag. I love the way it turned out and it fits my laptop perfectly. The pattern does teach you how to adjust the size based on the size of your laptop.
