So this past week I was pinspired TWICE! well probably more than that, but I documented two of them.
On Tuesday, My handsome husband and I decided to go out for lunch and thrift store shopping. We stumbled upon some records at goodwill and they were only a dollar!! One of my friends recently got a record player for her birthday and we had been wanting to get her something to listen to...we got her 8 things to listen to. It was a steal! On the way home I thought about how I could wrap her present and remembered we had a TON of burlap and ribbon leftover from our wedding. It was magic. I was proud. We took it to her at work and I made sure to take a few picture before she opened it.
It was really easy. I just cut about six inches wide on all four sides, folded it up and added the ribbon.
On Thursday, I was hanging out with one of my friends watching a Guliana & Bill marathon and we re-visited the thought of tie dying. We have been talking about doing it for awhile now (Pretty much since we met this summer). She asked my opinion on tie dying a pair of denim shorts and I thought it was awesome.
Her Grandmother has this freaking sweet craft room and just so happened to have some dye.
SPONTANEOUS CRAFT DAY!!!
She dyed her shorts while I pondered what I could dye. I have almost exhausted all options (t-shirt, V-neck, fitted tank, man tank, hoodie, baseball tee). Yeah I am obsessed. I really liked the shorts idea so, when she was finished we went to the nearest thrift store, found the best pair of mom jeans and a few t-shirts, and went back to work.
The most perfect $7 mom jeans.
Now perfect mom jorts.
the process.
The finished product.
And there you have it. My thrifty, pinspired craft week.
