Hey guys :)

For the love of everything good and holy...I've been INSANELY busy. It's inhumane. Seriously. BUT...I have been getting a TON of stuff done!!! I've been working really hard to get all of my projects documented and all in one place (here)...as it turns out, I have WAY, WAY, WAY more projects done than I thought I had. I mean, I knew I had a LOT of things to get pics of and get all up on here, but I haven't even put a dent into my stash yet. It's pretty cool :) So...slowly but surely I'm taking more pics...and posting more stuff. I have another big batch of things to put on here in the next couple of days. I'm heading to Utah tomorrow and I'll be there for a week, so hopefully I can hit up my favorite thrift store and make something fabulous while I'm there :) Prepare yourselves for a whole lotta thrifted goodness...<3

Golden Girls

I had this awesome Golden Girls shirt. The before pic just really doesn't do it justice...at all. I picked this one up for .50 or .75...I cant remember. All I had to do with this one was take off the sleeves and size it down. Done deal. :)
BEFORE-Oh, ya know, I just got done hanging out with Betty White. Blanch wouldn't be caught dead in this number.

Picking off the sleeves. I swear I am allergic to sleeves. It's like the first step in every recon I do...

AFTER-I really just freehanded the shape I wanted onto this bad boy and sized it down (minus the sleeves of course lol)! Easy business. For some reason I wouldn't buy this color normally, but I LOVE how it looks. That's one of the great things about buying things from the quarter sale at the thrift store...it pushes my color/texture boundaries. I ALWAYS end up with things that are fabric and colors that I normally wouldn't buy, but I end up loving them the most! Who would have known ;) Oh and PLEASE excuse the SUPER lame bathroom self pic!!! Ugh. Anytime I have a self pic it's because I literally could not round ANYONE up to take one for me...it's a last resort...yikes.
