Next up- LIFE
Craft Club is fine, I'm gonna be dying paper next time (hopefully) and learning how to knit! Speaking of dying things, check out this scarf I made by letting it soak in a acrylic paint and water mix! It's actually made of a t-shirt. All you have to do is cut of them hem and right below the sleeves and stre-e-e-e-e-e-ch and cut at one end! I must've let it soak for 2-3 hours while I did my homework and had dinner.
Ugh, my hand got in the way when I took the pictures- ah- you can still see them! I got the polka dots on by taking the acrylic paint and dotting it around with my finger. Easy Peasy! The polo doesn't go with the scarf I know, but I didn't feel like changing just for the picture....
I LOVE the tower in the front, as well as the old-timey feel it has-well-except for the cars....
Cheers Mates, Craft Club tomorrow!
