Fun projects!

I love it when I get to do fun little projects that don't take up too much time!  Back when I was in York, I found the cutest art shop EVER!!! It was SERIOUSLY, super CUTE!  I had a little bit of money with me and I found a good deal on a couple of textile paints and some felt like material.  I have been trying to figure out ways to spruce up some basic clothes that I have that have become boring to me and some fun to them!  Since I have misplaced my paintbrushes during the move, I can't use the paints yet (hopefully soon) but I can use the fabric!  I decided to take one of my plain white jumpers and add some cuteness!  I love how bright our room is when you open all the curtains.  I can imagine how much fun it would be to hang a wedding dress from these windows and shoot away!  It's great for getting fun, soft lighting on this dreary day for detail shots!  So, here on the right is a picture of my boring jumper.







Here is my finished flower!  It was soooo simple!  I just made a template of a petal, used the template to cut out the pieces of fabric and then hot glued it all together!  In the back, I added a safety pin so that I can pin it to my clothes so that it's not permanent.  I wasn't ready to take that serious step!  Not yet anyway...

I went to the library yesterday and found some fun fashion books that I am hoping to get some fun tips out of...  More projects to come!!!!!

Seriously!  It's fun!!!
