I am a refashioning, sewing, crafting, thrifting, bargain hunting, goodwill lovin' diva with 2 kids, trying to make it all work together.

Thoughts about Motherhood....












G.K.Chesterton:

"How can it be a large career to tell other people's children about the Rule of Three, and a small career to tell one's own children about the universe? How can it be broad to be the same thing to everyone and narrow to be everything to someone? No, a woman's function is laborious, but because it is gigantic, not because it is minute" (What's Wrong with the World)

RETRO sheet refashion

I love colorful retro sheets. They make me smile, they make me swoon. I love them more than most other thrift store finds. There's just something about them, Ahhhhhh. Look at a few of the thousands of things you can make with them!!!

I like to call this dress LOVE. Because I love it.

Bottom button detail.

Love the pink and green floral dress too! There is a big vintage button closure at the back that is fabulous!

*the brown and pink parts of the dresses were sheets too. Love what you can do with them!!!
