Pinterest #30

Happy Almost Weekend! It didn't occur to me until yesterday, but this was my last full week of freedom before my classes start up again. I haven't really taken advantage of that yet, so I guess I'd better make the most of my last few days. (And also go buy my art history textbook. Man did this school thing sneak up on me.)

Anyway, Pinterest! Let's have a look.

This is a cute way to wrangle your fabric. Mine's stacked in a basket right now, and I have to dig through everything to find what I want. This would be an obvious improvement:


Chocolate coconut smoothies, anyone? It looks deceptively like a chocolate shake made with ice cream, but its main ingredient is bananas. Sneaky!


Haaaaaa! Bone:


Remember when I wanted to be Beetlejuice for Halloween? No? Okay, well, I did, but I couldn't find adequately fantastic stripes. Here's my solution (it would also be cute for wearing on regular days):


And finally, I haven't done a cross-stitch in many moons, but if anything can get me back into it, it's Batman. (Seen the movie? Your thoughts?) Edited to add: as soon as Hubsey saw this post, he busted out the Bane voice again. It's been over 10 minutes. I think I need to be rescued, Mr. Wayne.


So what are you up to this weekend? Anybody else savoring their last bits of extra time? Or spending all of it on Pinterest, not that I would judge you? Have you tried anything from Pinterest lately? I might bust out one of those smoothies...

Wanna connect on Pinterest? I'm right here.

    I don't even sew, but I still want that drawer full of organized fabrics :)
    And the Bone card cracks me up...love it!

  3. My summer is still packed as ever. This is actually our last weekend without any commitments until October 20th! We're going to savor it by going for a picnic in the vineyard where we got married - and play in our garden. When you become a home owner the weirdest things make you happy - like edging out flower beds

  4. I love the fabric in the drawers. I was looking at it thinking, I'd like that one and that one and that one....

    This weekend the hubs will continue to work on installing our new half bath in our entry hall. I'm so excited on how this project is coming along. In the meantime, I will be wrangling two small children. :)

  6. I seriously just laughed outloud at that "i'd bone you" card!!! Coconut is my fav flavor so I'm totally gonna jump on that AND I absolutely love that fabric storage idea. It's SO pretty! Of course I have a crap ton of yarn and not fabric but my wheels are turning on how I can make that work :). Thanks for sharing. Here I go to re-pin

  9. I wished, our fabrics and paper... would fit into such a drawer! Just realized this days, that the newly build paper rack is already too small...

  11. I looooove that striped skirt! I haven't seen Batman yet. We've been taking advantage of all the free summer movies so haven't been to a real theater since Moonrise Kingdom a couple of months ago. I haven't done any diys or anything from Pinterest; I need to get back into making mode and stop being so lazy. Hope you enjoy your last days before school. :)
