SHADOW | boxes

I got the idea to make these shadow boxes from Anthropologie. I wanted some pretty boxes to display various projects I’ve done. It was fun to do and really easy. I first bought 3 different thrifted frames and my husband helped me make the actual boxes. I then painted them with a base color and…

ONE UGLY SKIRT

I found this skirt at Savers for 99 cents and saw potential in it. I think there’s a fine line between ugly and cool. haha Here’s 4 different ways I could wear it. What do you think? Ugly or cool? Favorite look? Look 1: Look 2: Look 3: Look 4:

Kelly! You shock me with all your ideas! I would have NEVER thought to wear it as a scarf or a high-waisted skirt. So ingenious, miss!ReplyCancel

Clever!ReplyCancel

That’s fabulous! I really love #2 and #4 – they are both really great! I never think of things like this when I see ugly stuff. You know what, I don’t even think you can call this piece ugly anymore – wear it with pride (and thinking that you paid just a $1!).ReplyCancel
