DIY Boho Fringed Placemats For Summer Entertaining
I have pulled this post out of the archives because it is a keeper, and I’m still enjoying my DIY boho place mats, which are great indoors or outdoors, and perfect for that little extra something this summer! Enjoy! And I just had the thought that these could also be great for the Succah, so why not plan ahead! I love t-shirt yarn, and have been thinking about using it for macrame and embroidery, not just crocheting! Industrial-waste t-shirt yarn also supports eco-consciousness, as it is made from odds and ends of fabric left after the pieces for making clothing is cut from the yardage. What I found after making…

Fringed Woven Placemat IKEA Hack With T-Shirt Yarn

With ethnic wall hangings and baskets still popular in the home decor arena, now is the perfect time to make some fun summer accessories for your home, with some t-shirt yarn and some woven placemats or baskets.

Simple Macrame Leaf To Make In Any Size
I have been dreaming of stepping into the world of macrame for a good year now, and at long last here I am, sharing with you my very first macrame project, a simple macrame leaf, or depending on how you trim it, a macrame feather! I actually whipped this one up on Friday as I was cooking, as I just couldn’t wait to give it a try! A macrame leaf, or feather if you make it longer, is the perfect introduction to macrame as you work with short strands so there aren’t all those potentially tangled strings to worry about, and if you make a bunch you can use them…
