Whenever I travel I always come home with a stack of ticket stubs, brochures, and random paper souvenirs. So this time I thought I’d actually do something with them to remember all the fun we had. Enter my travel sketchbook!
How To Alter Fabric with Color
Happy Tuesday! Today I thought I’d share some of my favorite ways to alter fabric using color with you. There are so many ways to alter fabric each with it’s own unique outcome. I really think it’s amazing how a color change can make a basic fabric look totally unique and fashion forward.
Often we think of tie dye when we think of dying fabric and I think that can turn many people off the idea, but you’d be amazed at the cool colors and patterns you can get with dye, tie dying or otherwise. Dye is also an inexpensive way to alter or upgrade a plain fabric, here are a few of my favorite dying and fabric painting techniques.

It’s finally September, now you can officially have pumpkin spice everything, get those sweaters out, and of course wear lots of SCARVES!

Today I’ve rounded up a few of my favorite DIY scarves from TIB and a few ideas I’ve found around the web.
