Tweaked : Clothing to Pillows

One of my recent tweaks goes something like this….  Find a cute sweater from Old Navy in the Goodwill Bins.  Keep it FOREVER even though it will never fit you (It’s literally a tiny size I may have been able to wear when I was 12) and hope to one day find something to do…

Tweaked : Knockoff CAbi Traveler Pants

Lately, I have been tweaking things left and right.  It’s been great, adding to my wardrobe and saving many things I thought I really needed to unload.  I am never financially in a place to buy a bunch of new clothes, so this has been a perfect way to have different things to wear without…

Tweaked : Unicorn Pillow

Recently I was approached by a very weepy 6 year old that appeared to be imitating Chris Farley from this scene in the movie Tommy Boy: Fat Guy in a Little Coat She was distressed at the fact that her favorite and…..I mean FAVORITE top was now so small in the shoulders she could no…

Tweaked : Fuzzy Flowers

I have been consigning again lately and today I thought I would share one rule I follow about buying and tweaking.  When I am shopping consignment sales or thrift shops for new clothing or household items I make it a rule to only buy things that look nearly brand new.  I know this seems obvious, but…

Tweaks : Monogram Wall Plaque For A Nursery

Yep, more nursery tweaks for your enjoyment.  This one was so simple.  I only wanted to show it because I thought it might give hope to those of you out there, like me, that do not really have a budget for redecorating your spaces.  Plus, I think it came out really cute!  A little Holly Hobbie maybe, but…

Tweaks : Nursery Pillow Cover Up

I’m back again with more details about how I transformed my son’s nursery into a girlie space for our latest addition.  One of my favorite spots to rest in our whole house is the rocker in our nursery.  It’s a cool bent wood number with woven white fabric webbing.  While very comfortable for relaxing it needed a little…

Tweaked : Bedskirt From A Curtain

I’m sure many of you are like me in that you see textile items for what they are, fabric!  So, when thrifting I often sift through the housewares textile section, not only in hopes of finding the occasional vintage piece, but to add to my newer fabric stash as well.  There is nothing like finding old bedspreads,…

Tweaked : Wooden Bead Necklace

I just finished up this quick project and wanted to share it with all of you.  All two of you…  This simple wooden bead necklace was one of my finds at the consignment sale I attended last month and cost a whopping $5.00!  Initially I thought I would leave it alone and wear it for…

Tweaked : Vintage Fabric Trimmed Hoodie Sweater

For the latest wardrobe tweak I performed some surgery on one of my old hoodie sweaters.  It’s a basic black hoodie with pouch pocket in front and I have gotten a TON of use out of this in the past.  I had in mind adding a placket down the front in a contrasting fabric, not only…
