DIY Nuts Bracelet

Maybe it's the mild weather that came through this weekend, or the daylight savings-leap forward that granted a little extra evening sunshine,

whatever the reason....I have been inspired. 

I got my crafty kick back (it was on hiatus). I have seen the hex-nut bracelet floating around a few blogs and Pinterest, it's been on my  DIY to-do list for weeks.  I finally bolted (pun intended) to Lowe's and picked up a box of nuts for less than 5 bucks, I already had the fabric cut and ready to go from another project! I have quite a few nuts left so these bracelets will certainly be gifted to a few friends. 

 

This bracelet is as easy as it looks, as you perform a simple braid slide on a nut, and continue to braid adding as many metal nuts as you like. 

DIY...Open Back T-Shirt

Here's another t-shirt DIY...

This project was quite simple. 

1. cut a two inch verticle strip out of the back  of the shirt

2. gently poke holes along either side

3. string t-shirt yarn through the holes

Easy!

DIY...Sewing, High Waist Pants

I recently got a new, mini sewing machine. I figured I'd use it and if the sewing thing became something I'd stick with, then I plan to upgrade to an adult model. My first attempt was pajama pants, the came out huge and far from perfect, but that project let me know I wanted to improve and keep at this new found hobby. Next I made these pants out of Chinese screen printed cotton. While they came out better than I expected with no pattern  and just a few youtube vidoes; I wouldn't wear them out of the house, but I will show them to you. Check em out...before I change my mind and remove this post.
