A Melon Blocked Skirt
Ok, today I've got another skirt...

Movie Nights, A Projector, and $150 Target Gift Card Giveaway

Thrifted Thursday—A Thread Shelf
I know that I say this every week...but I think this is one of my most favorite thrifted items ever! It was at a garage sale and priced at $5.00, but I had to have it. I am in the middle of a sewing corner re-do (which I think is going to take forever...because I just keep changing my mind) and knew it would be a perfect place to store thread and thimbles.And I LOVE that it is made from old measuring sticks and rulers. Isn't it awesome?Liz and I were talking the other day...that we are those ... View the Post
