Sunday Crafts


This past weekend I went to Joann Fabric store to get some craft supplies since they were having a family and friends sale, if you follow me on Instagram, then you saw the goodies I bought. I went in for the purpose of getting some yarn to start knitting items for fall. I also want to start making more crafts and doing more DIY projects. I started by making this bracelet which I really like! I have been really into turquoise jewelry lately so this is a great start to a collection. I also have been meaning to finish these shorts for the longest, (I think since last summer) but just never got around to it. I decided it was time to finish them so I can wear them this summer. I have to say DIY projects are addicting, I can't wait to try out more! I plan on making crafts at least once a month. What about you guys, do you like making crafts?

    I just did the exact same on an old pair of Bermuda shorts I had that the stitching was coming apart at the bottom. I made some really cute shorts :) Thanks for sharing!

    I love crafting! I feel like I haven't had much time for it lately though. Maybe in the summer I will! I really want to make some dip-dye shorts. I love that arrow on the bracelet!

    Cute bracelet! I love turquoise, too. You should come to New Mexico sometime, turquoise is huge here and every jewelry store has a huge selection. I really enjoy DIYs, too, and you shared a couple of great ones!
