Light Love
I don't have money for more lights this year, but I wanna maybe spend my Christmas money to have these in my room. I love twinkle lights, and they are awesome year round!
Found at Life in Grace.
I bought out the store of that green garland stuff one year, and now I have no idea what to use it for, until now! This would look cute in Aidan's room.

Draft Buster
I've made these before, but not with anything attractive (ahem, old towels). Maybe now is the time to make something that would enhance our home instead of detract from it.

Bags
Ever have a tote that isn't really appealing to you that you've gotten for free?
Recover it!
Found at Betz White.
It is said that if you can sew a straight line, you are good to go with this bag. I can do that!

Repurposed Sweaters
I've always wanted to try repurposing old sweaters into pillows.
Maybe now that I have visual inspiration I will.

Tablecloth Lightbulb Moment
Okay, something else maybe you don't know about me. I get these, hmmm, revelations, or aha moments, as Oprah would say - for normal everyday things that other people probably already realize. While not blonde, they feel blonde-ish to me.
One popular one that my family jokes about is the realization that, plums are prunes. Yeah, amazing eh? So every time we have prunes, that gets brought up, or vice versa - plums.
Anyway, just had a duh moment. While looking at the picture below, I thought, oh what a beautiful tablecloth. Then I realized, holy crap, I could actually sew my own tablecloth by buying awesome beautiful fabric.... I'm a sad creature yes?

Fabric Research
I'm in the market for some fabric, and seeing them in action helps the process more than just in a fat quarter (if you ask me) cause sometimes it puts it in better perspective. So here we go!
I like the birds in this quilt. Birds on a Wire?
