I’ve challenged myself to write one positive thing about myself everyday for one year.

Self Esteem #45: Even though I was busy, I made time for something I love: remixing clothes! I took some 8 year old light wash flare jeans that I wasn’t really going to wear again and I used them to try out a tutorial I had posted here on cut off jean shorts with ombre. They didn’t come out exactly how I wanted, but I’m glad I tried it out so I can do it better next time :-D Here are photos!

Maybe I’ll try these next!

Interesting tutorial! The narrator has a fun “writing style” as well :-D

This dress is TOO CUTE. Obviously the tutorial is for children, and I wouldn’t want the felt circles on it, but I’m sure it can be remixed for adults :-)

You never know when you might need one of these and they could be a great gift :-)

This looks cute and pretty easy :-) I’d like to try this for the summer time :-)

This is a tutorial I might like to try someday

This tutorial shows how to fuse plastic shopping bags together to make a new sturdy reusable grocery tote bag. I tried this a couple months ago and I had trouble with fusing the plastic, but I’d like to try this again. However, it might be a while since Maryland law doesn’t give plastic bags out for free anymore. Just as well I suppose :-) 

Another interesting tutorial I’d like to try someday!

I’d like to follow this tutorial and remix a tshirt like this for spring :-D

I watched a sewing tutorial on YouTube on how to patch jeans and I found this comment :-D
