Friday faves 4

Oh Friday how I've missed you! The weekend couldn't have come soon enough, it's gonna be a jam packed weekend, but so fun. And next week is spring break here, which means I get a little extra sleep before heading off to work.

I love all the uses for chalkboard paint I've been seeing lately. This wineglass label idea is just awesome.

 This recipe for peanut butter from A Beautiful Mess is so easy. Looks like I'll be making some of my own natural peanut butter soon.

This chart of craft cutters is awesome. This is for all the people that think I'm weird when they ask for scissors and I ask back, "paper or fabric?" There are different scissors for a reason.

I'm totally in love with this "oui" ring from lala Design Studio on Etsy. The design is just so cool, but the fact that it's in French just totally sold me.

The thank you pouches that Ashley is making for her Denver blog meetup are so awesome. They would be perfect for a wedding or any party.

This tutorial on how to tailor a blazer is totally the right way to do it. I need to do this to one of my blazers that I love, but is just too big. One word of advice though, don't leave out the shoulder pads when you finish. They give the blazer the structure it needs.

These little emergency kits couldn't be easier to make (out of a potholder!) and you can fill them with whatever you need. These would be perfect to throw in your purse.

I loved seeing Alison's current closet. She details out what she has in there, and it's inspired me to supplement my wardrobe. I may be using those gift cards I just got soon.

I found this awesome blog this week. I'm really loving it, plus I gotta support another redhead! ;)

    1. I wanted to see if you wanted to get together for lunch this weekend to talk about your trip, etc. but I ended up being superrrrrr broke this week :( and I don't get paid till next week! I spent too much money at the eye dr. this week buying new contacts and I screwed our budget up! Anyway- lunch soon!!
