In my last post, I suggested some ideas for reworking old cards. I also have a lot of T-shirts that I can’t get rid of. What can I say….I am a sentimentalist! There are cutie little t-shirts that the kids grew out of, souvenir t-shirts from a great vacation…you get the idea. And so today I present a couple of options for reusing t-shirts.

I completely recognize that gold and silver take turns being the ‘metal of choice’ in the design world…but for the time being, I am totally enamoured with all things gold + brass.
That said, I don’t want to necessarily invest in lots of expensive gold decor for my house knowing that I might want to change it up again down the road.
This DIY gold lace vase was not only easy and quick to do, but cost me less than $10. And hasn’t left my brass+glass coffee table (found at a salvage store for $25!) since I finished it…

I love decorating for holidays, but one thing we haven’t had in a while was a Christmas wreath. We used to buy fresh greenery to hang on our door, but I decided this year I’d try something more lasting by crafting my own. I love working with paper, and since our style of door is tricky to hang anything on, something delicate would work just inside our entryway. Feel free to play with colour and texture: a mix of red and cream poinsettias with green leaves would be lovely, and I used a paper with a slight texture on one side. An all white version like this could even stay up all year. Despite its availability and relatively low cost, paper can seem like an intimidating medium, but if you choose a sturdy heavier stock like I did, it’s pretty durable and easier to keep for future use.
