A Memorable Memorial Day

Two 'jeans days' (aka the Best Days Ever) in a row, crafting, and brunch with friends was how my fantastic Memorial Day all started!  And the following is how it continued and ended - 

Put Fran on a leash...

Found an Awesome Michigan t-shirt...

Went to a parade with friends...

Took a long bike ride...

In the in-between there was a lot of hanging out with friends, playing frisbee, delicious eating, movie watching, Skipbo and catching up on sleep!  
I just love me some BOYNE! :)

Oh you know...just Sewing on Sunday

A new necklace from an old one!  
I've had a ripped out page from a magazine floating around for about 3 months now!  And since I had a quiet weekend, I pulled it out and gave it a go!

My Inspiration: Boden's Sea Green Beaded Petal Necklace 

Ooo lala right?
But for real - 64 dolla?  
Are you nuts?!?!?!

So I had this:

And I gave it a little love and turned it into this:


At basically free - I say uh huh!  and the girls at work said uh huh too!  
Holla - that's how you save a dolla! (or 64 + shipping)
