Well y'all I've been in Michigan for
nearly a week. Zach has gotten up and gone to work everyday & I've gotten up and worked on
scarves,
business card designs,
blog designs, hats,
the eBook, the
newsletter....it's been awesome!! But I do have one favor to ask...
will you be my first sale in August? Making this dream a reality means having the means to back it up & it sure would make my day to pack up a lovely item for you & ship it your way! (It would also give me an excuse to go get a coffee!)
Anyway, here are some lovely DIY's I've found this week that I just couldn't wait to share with you:
This awesomely adorable bag made by Lindsay over at
Hello Hydrangea. She did this DIY in two parts (
one &
two). What a great way to show some suspense! Having cool things in two parts is great to give readers a reason to come on back!
This sweet way of
dressing up store bought mail holders & office accessories. What a way to add some vintage flair from
Camille Styles.
This way from
Lucky Mag to make your jewelry/vanity look gorgeous! Now to convince Zach that I need to do this! Our little room at our new house is waaaayyyyy tiny..but hopefully we can come to an agreement on a few things :) Lucky Mag suggests cake stands & candy dishes that are a bit out of my price range...you could totally diy some with thrift store plates, candle holders, & E6000 or even check the Dollar Stores!
And I am gearing up for the
September Edition of 30 Days of Lists*! Can you believe it? I totally bombed on the go round in March :( But am so excited to be a part of 30 Lists this September. So to gear up, I am toying with ideas for my own list notebook. If you're into using your sewing machine in unconventional ways & wanna use up some stuff you have around your house give this
DIY a try from
Lux Per Diem.

++This super easy
light box DIY that I might be using here soon to take pictures of the new hats for the shop. I can't wait to get 'em in there!++
++This
Vintage Wood Stain DIY that sadly doesn't lead back to the original website...from Pinterest++
++This
blog is just all around lovely. Sometimes I think I want Five Sixteenths to go in a more
desinger-y blog direction but then I realize it's just not me. I am not clean & simple & minimal in real life. You should see the yarn pile next to me (I am not ashamed!)++
I hope your week has gone by well enough! If you are interested & want to do a cool little project either personally or for your blog, consider joining
