DIY- T-shirt Loop Scarf

Hello all,

Here I am sitting in my creative chamber watching last nights amazing episode of Glee, when I realized I haven't done a DIY tutorial in months and months. I have lots of them all saved up in my computer but haven't shared them with the universe. So please enjoy this little fun project.


Take an old t-shirt of any color. I bought this beauty at the local thrift store for a dollar. Make sure the shirt does not have seams on the sides.

Cut the shirt from armpit to armpit and throw away.

Cut 1 inch strands side to side. This will make loops of fabric.


Cut the rest of the shirt into strands. When you are done cutting strands take each loop and rap around hand and pull.

Once you pull the strands they will look like this.


Wrap around the neck twice to make a fun little t-shirt loop scarf.


If you love this project, send me a comment or question!

peace.love.mimi.

Dirty Thirty (+1)

Countdown has commenced for my Sex and the City theme birthday party. Seriously, how lucky am I that my birthday lands on the same week as the opening of the greatest movie of all time??? Meant to be, I think so!

So as we get closer and closer to the 30th, I really have to buckle down to create my Carrie inspired outfit. So far, I bought some fake herrrr at the flea market in Georgia. I also have some leaves that I am going to rig to make a giant flower. So in the spirit of fashion and all that is Carrie, here are some images to wet your palette and get you pumped for the new movie and my birthday!!!

Will also post a little Carrie outfit DIY.

Adventures in the Dirty South

Last week was magical! I spent 5 whole days with my college partner in crime, Crystal. We laughed, we danced, we ate, we met Jerry Rice. My travels started in Greeneville took me to Atlanta and ended in DC. So here is my trip in images.... Enjoy.


Ruby and I at Crystal's barn. I am pretty much the horse whisperer.

"Can chicken's spray pee on me?"

Best place to buy chicken's, fake Carrie hair, Jesus ring and puppies

My girls. Getting better with age.

3 am Waffle House adventures.

Dancing with my eyes closed.

My girls, new and old.

Jerry Rice tried to get a piece of Crystal.

Sean Trent is legend.

Us being us.

Banana and Saki breaking it down.

Dancing while laughing may cause severe happiness.

The beautiful Banana.

Smile

Hello beautiful world. I have had quite the week filled with ailments and visits to the dentist. If there is one thing in the world I really hate, it is being sick! So I am dedicating this blog to the one thing that probably comes the most natural to me... smiling. So please remember to just smile.

Especially if you have an amazing smile!

Or if it is a beautiful day
Even if you have to hide your smile
Or if you make silly smiles
Smile at all of your life long memories
Smile in your words

Smile Style
Even animals smile!


Smile when a song makes you happy

Get a playlist! Standalone player Get Ringtones

Enjoy this beautiful day, enjoy this beautiful life.

peace.love.mimi.
