DIY, Recipes and Crafts!
After cleaning and organizing my office I learned that I am a total fabric hoarder. I like to sew, but it is not my go to craft, but still, I can not pass up a great fabric. In an effort to use up some of my fabric, I decided I needed a new case for my tablet. So I made a DIY Tablet Case. It is easy and a no sew project!

Even though Summer is not here yet, it has been hot here in the South. I have been trying to grow my hair out, but I am a ponytail junky because I hate having my hair in my face. To stop me from putting my hair up, I decided that I needed some headbands for when I am working. So, I of course, decided to make my own DIY Headbands!
I have a ton of Fat Quarters, probably because I hoard them. So, I dug through my stash and found some Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Fabric, as well as some Wonder Woman fabric to use. You can use any fabric you would like, just as long as it is a light weight fabric.

When I first started this blog, one of my first projects was a DIY Apron. To this day it is still one of my most popular posts. The directions were a little lack luster, so I wanted to remake it. I also wanted to include a free printable pattern to make the process easier. For this Easy DIY Reversible Apron I went with a Deadpool theme. But, the options are endless with this pattern.
The pattern I included two different options for the waist and neck strap. Option A includes a banded waist, while Option B is a more simple option without the band.

One of my first projects on this blog was a Hello Kitty Bleach Shirt that I used vinyl to create the design. I love that shirt, and still have it. I wanted to make some more fun shirts, but instead of using vinyl, I opted to use freezer paper to make the design. These DIY Bleach Stain shirt are super easy to make, and fun to make.
I opted to make a Boba Fett inspired shirt using the Mandalorian symbol. But, you can make any design you want! I love using freezer paper for crafts because it is easily available, and cheap!

Who is excited about the new Power Rangers Movie?!?! ME!!!! I grew up watch the Power Rangers, and love them! The last movie was kind of a let down, so I am hoping that this one makes up for it! I have so many shirts, but it turns out that I do not have a single Power Ranger shirt! So, I decided to make my own DIY Power Rangers Shirt!
I used freezer paper for the main diamond outlines, and then using my Silhouette cutting machine to cut out the decal in the center.

Lately I have been a little obsessed with Shrinky Dink. It is just such a fun product to play with! You can make charms, pins and even things like sun catchers with it! I decided I wanted to play around with it and make some fun DIY Nerdy Shrinky Dink Bracelets!
You only need a few basic things to make these. I used some left over chains and clasps that I had from a previous project, so the only thing I needed to buy was the Shrinky Dink.

Have you ever had a crazy idea and just went for it? That is how this project started. I was looking around my office for inspiration and I spotted my mini Game of Thrones Iron Throne setting on the shelf. I though, “I wonder if I can make this into soap?”. So that is what I did! I did not have high hopes for this project, but to my surprise, it turned out pretty awesome! So, today I am going to show you how I made this DIY Game of Thrones Iron Throne Soap!
My mini Throne had a lot of detail, so I was afraid that the soap version would lose a lot of it. I was wrong, all of the detail was picked up in the soap!

I have always loved Star Wars, it is something that my entire family has a passion for. Sometimes our passion causes fights over who took the Bobba Fett coffee cup, but I love it. I have seen a lot of Star Wars crafts, and especially a lot of Death Star crafts. I wanted to do something a little different with these crafts though. Today, I am sharing some fun DIY Star Wars Crafts. They include a hollo DIY Death Star and a fun DIY Han Solo Trapped in Carbonite charm!

I mentioned earlier in the week that I have binge watching the Harry Potter movies. I shared with you some free Harry Potter Planner Stickers, and now I am sharing some fun DIY Harry Potter Crafts! These 3 Harry Potter crafts are super easy to make, and would make a great gift for the Potterhead in your life!

Over the last weekend I pulled out some of my old video consoles and had a blast playing. One thing that my hubby and I agree on is that Legend of Zelda is our all time favorite game. It inspired me to do some fun “old school” nerdy crafts. Of course, we had to start off with this DIY Legend of Zelda Pillow!
What I love most is that I did not have to sew a thing! I did not even use hot glue to make the pillow or adhere the decal! I did use my Silhouette cutting machine to cut the decal out though. It was my first time using it to cut fabric, and it worked out perfectly!
