I need some nature now. Maybe I should just hike the little canyon "stream" out here. Off to commune.

What to do with vintage supplies



Originally uploaded by ritualbath

My mother and I often pick up craft and sewing supplies at thrift stores. Sometimes I come across some gems, like the engraved pearl buttons that would be lovely on some elegant silk something.

Other times I get just regular supplies like buttons and zippers. I love finding fabric but with all the bad double knit out there it doesn't happen much any more.

Now I have this great heavy brass separating zipper.

I was going to make a great overnight bag with it but then noticed it was separating, and now I am wondering if it shouldn't be some garment to use that separating feature.

Its about sixteen inches long.

What do you think?

My craft/sewing room redo

I rearranged things, still not like in the magazines but way more functional.


The work desk right next to the sewing machine so the kiddo can craft with me.



Shelves over my head while sewing have notions that I might need. While my patterns, books and magazines are all organized on the bookshelf.



My warm and natural up as a design wall, and all my rubbermaid bins have labels on them by fabric. There is one of each of quilting, upholstery, suiting, shirting, and knits.

I hope you get the chance to be creative this weekend,

I need a new hair cut


Calm detangler spray 4oz 11

I have been hesitant to find a new stylist, which means I don't have one. But for now I can use my detangler spray to help comb the long mass of hair on my head. Soon soon my split ends will be trimmed away for a long layered mane.
