If you've never sewn before, this is a great project to start you on your way. No machine is needed, as everything is hand sewn. Hand sewing is a great skill, as you can use it to complete simple repairs on clothing, from patching jeans to sewing on buttons to hemming skirts.

If anyone thought the
Frazier & Wing Recycled Magazine Mobiles we posted about were
Crave Worthy, but didn't want to spend 200 bucks to get one, look no further.
Still Dottie has come up with do-it-yourself directions for making your very own mobile from recycled magazine pages that certainly look as pretty as the originals. So, I thought I'd pass them along.

Maybe it's the bright, primary colors, or maybe it's the mobile's ability to transport even the most jaded home design enthusiast back to childhood whimsy. Whatever the reason, I am absolutely smitten with
Frazier and Wing's gorgeous mobiles.
These lovely home accessories are actually upcycle projects, since they are constructed from old magazines.
