Camera Strap | Design Love Fest
A while ago I tried to make a strap for my camera from some fabric I loved. It was a disaster. It was a tube that you invert but my less than stellar sewing meant it became all puckered and miss-shapen. Yikes. This kind of strap is much more up my alley - plus minimal sewing! - and I can decorate it with graphic triangles that are everywhere right now!
So I decided to make an adorable dusty pink bow-tie from some old scraps of curtain fabric, and it turned out better than expected!
All you need is:
-6″ x 3.5″ and 1″ x 2.5″ pieces of fabric
-some thread and a needle
-a pencil
After your outline is complete, start out by crumpling the larger piece of fabric in your desired bow shape, and sew up the center together. Once that is in place, take your smaller piece, and wrap it around the center, sewing it together. And that’s it, very simple! Add a pin back or a clip with some hot glue to the backside, depending on what you want to use it for :) Perfect to match with a button up shirt, or it can even be worn as a hair accessory.

15 Ways To Tie A Scarf | The Fashion Spot
OK, so now you’ve made your new scarf, here’s 15 great ways to tie it! Numbers 3, 9 and 12 are my favourites but I think I will have a go at tying most of these. Of course, you will need different sizes for some of these, but scarves are such a great way of dressing up an outfit so why wouldn’t you want multiple!?
Spring Craft Ideas | Country Living
I adore Country Living’s DIYs, they always post the best ideas. It’s funny, I’ve always had this idea in my head of making a tablecloth out of vintage hankies (or um, new hankies that look vintage!) and here it is! I also really like that vase made out of jars tied together, and the doily vase is adorable. Oh yeah, and the printed screen is a great idea - and they’re so cheap, it doesn’t matter if you hate it after a while! Anyway, they’re the ones I love, but there are 37 more here, so click through.
