Steam function

So I'm not skilled in the ways of my new dryer YET. But I bought some fabric. And well it had a nasty crease in it. And I bed to cut on some interesting folds so I figured I would "try" it. Well my fabric is sipping wet. I rung it out. Wiped out my dryer. And put it on a dry cycle. What is up with that? There was a puddle in my dryer! I wasn't washing it. I just wanted to steam it. Lesson learned I guess it wasn't faster then ironing, but I did free me up to cut the bottom of the dress. Do the dishes and make tomorrows coffee.

Mans dress shirt upcycle attempt 1

So I have this favorite shirt, and it's getting pretty worn out. I try and wear it less but I love it. So I am trying to recreate it. The first attempt wasn't quite right it was a tad too tight on my boobs :(

Salvation Army Fiesta

So last Friday I had to get my oil changed. Pesky oil change REQUIRED signal was going off every time I drove. Lucky for me I had a coupon and the Salvation Army is located a block away. So here is my loot from the day :) good thing the Fiesta was 50% off other wise it was quite over priced.

Back to reality.

My son and I were lucky enough to go to Alaska for 16 days. :) it's so beautiful and clean and fresh there. Well minus the 95,000 acre fire in my dads back yard. I had little to no reception there. So didn't get to post often but took some beautiful photos and visited my much missed family. And a few friends.
