Cheap Crafts!

A few weeks ago I went down to Vancouver to go to the Final Fantasy Symphony, but realized I didn't have a matching tote/purse/clutch/wallet for my outfit. Normally I wouldn't care about this, but for the specific occasion I didn't think an expensive outfit would go along with an old leather purse very well.

I hit up the mall, Winners, Bentley's, Ebay, EVERYWHERE trying to find a freaking white or off white/cream purse to go along with the outfit. Nothing. Nadda. Zip. Ziltch. Zero.

So I got out my material bin :D

Possibly a bad idea.

With some old christmas fabric, a hot glue gun, and the cardboard from our Guitar Hero box, I made my clutch :D



The fabric was the exact color as my corset, so it went along with this outfit nicely.



Apparently I have something against smiling o.0

THAT project worked out so nicely that I decided to use the same fabric to deal with my kitchen problem. (Yah okay, I was just lazy and didn't want to get out any more material :D )

Under our sink are a million bags. Grocery bags, shopping bags, fancy jewelry bags, you name it. We usually only use our eco shopping bags, but sometimes forget them. We also use the plastic bags because we have a dog, and we enjoy walking her, and we don't want any fines :D

So I used the same material (and hot glue to inforce my quick hem job) and made a nice under the sink bag holder. It now looks MUCH better.

Good start to the day!
