Fun Stuff • Arm Knitting + Sailor Moon Hoodies + S'mores Forever

Stuff to Make

• Jessica, of How About Orange, shared a really great website that teaches you how to knit.  My brain has always rejected knitting as something I could never do, plus I like to have one hand free in case I need to battle, but maybe this site will help me actually learn.  It'll never help with the battle readiness, though.
• With two cats in the house that love eating plants, I can't have real flowers, but this Design*Sponge round-up of paper flowers can brighten a space without making your cats barf.
• How to arm knit a scarf in 20 minutes.  A scarf that's comically large AND quick to make?  Yes.  Maybe I'll add some arm-knit scarves to next winter's collection!
• I'd love to make a giant, circulur pink version of this pom-pom rug.  Or black and white...so good.
• Rachel shared a simple way to decorate your boring planters.  Because everyone needs more pink and glitter in their lives.

Stuff to Wear

• I'm a total Harry Potty fangirl so this Luna Lovegood glasses ring is everything good.  I drew the same glasses for Peculiar People Day this year!
• I cannot wait for March 3rd, because these Sailor Moon hoodies are a necessity.  I've just started reading the manga and I looove it ^_^
• It's about time to start thinking about sandals in Austin.  I love the fat, clean lines of this pair.

Stuff to Eat

• Give me everything spicy all the time.  Emma's Pepper Jack Bites look so yummy!
• Thin Mint S'mores!  It's a combination of the two greatest things that have ever been in your mouth.
• The existence of Puppy Chow Popcorn has totally blown my mind.  
• Oh...and S'mores Pie.  Because S'mores.

Stuff to Read

• Shauna's Link Love features are always filled with gold.  She shared this piece about how to photograph in low-light and the advice is spot-on.
• Gertie wrote a review of Seams Unlikely, Nancy Zieman's autobiography and I can't wait to read the book.  Nancy has always been in my home, authoring whole shelves of my sewing books and on TV when I was younger.
• Full disclosure, I haven't listened to this yet, but I really really want to!

Stuff from TPS this Week

• This week was quiet, but I did share a gigantic post of all of the vintage, thrift and antique stores I've been to in Austin.  It's a big list.
• And it was Curling is Cool Day, Tortilla Chip Day, Chocolate-Covered Peanut Day, Levi Strauss Day, Strawberry Day, Tooth Fairy Day, and Pig Day.  It was a strange and diverse week for holidays haha!
