what i wore wednesday

I normally don't do "what I wore wednesday" posts, 
but I couldn't resist today's outfit since it involved some craftiness. :) 

yay! stripes and flowers ~ my favorite combination.
sweater - rue 21
shirt - target
jeans - jcpenney
scarf - by me!
earrings - by me, too (you can get some in my shop here!)

I found this great long striped cardigan in a bag of hand-me-downs. I honestly have no idea where it came from. I think it was left over from a community yard sale we did with some students last summer. Anyway, I loved it and decided to keep it for myself. Unfortunately, I noticed a pretty big hole on the back of it.

So this morning, I got out the remnants from that vintage jersey I used to make those infinity scarves the other day. I cut out a little heart, and the sewed it over the hole on the back of the sweater.

ta-da!
wearing my heart on my... back! :) haha...
it's a little bit wonky, but i still think it looks cute.

my friend Danielle dropped by this morning,
and the first thing she said when she saw my sweater was, "Oh, look - a heart! I love it!" 
Successful save of a cute sweater destined for the scrap pile!

  4. Are you selling the scarves? I noticed you don't have them linked to the shop... I'd love to see about purchasing one.
