$5 Friday…Farmer’s Market Bag
Ok, so the photo looks like it came from a 1980's advertisment but it didn't. Liz took this picture of me with my bag just a few weeks ago. Maybe I just still belong in the 80's. Anyways....My $5 Friday project is a Farmer's Market Bag. I made it out of a rug from the Dollar Store, $2.13 worth of handle cord from Wal-Mart, and scrap fabric from my bin.First I made some flowers and cut out the shapes that I wanted on the bag. Then I folded the rug in half and pinned the shapes and flowers on the ... View the Post

It’s FINALLY done…the $5 Tulle Ruffle Skirt
First, before you buy your fabric you are going to need 2 measurements. The first is a waist measurement, in my case I need 20 inches. Then take a length measurement,in my case 10 inches (waist to knee measurement). I made this particular skirt for a 2 year old. Now to know how much fabric to buy.....double the waist measurement. Mine will be 40 inches. Add 2 inches to the length measurement. Mine will be 12. You need a piece of fabric 12 inches by WoF(width of fabric that you will cut to 40 ... View the Post
