Marvelous Accessories DIY: Big Bow Rings

Bows are adorable on pretty much anything. Another way to say 'I'm a girly girl and I love it.' I made these big bow rings out of fabric scraps from my alterations and designs. There is always a reason why I hoard things. Haha. :) Supplies: Wire, pliers, fabric, needle and thread To create the bow, fold the fabric and sew: Make a ring out of the wire and attach it underneath the bow. I made three of these cuties! Like statement necklaces I think every girl should own a big bow ring. Makes a statement for any kind of...

Simple Gold Trim Cream Tank

Tanks are so versatile and pretty therefore I had to make this cutie. I sewed this cream tank without the gold trim at first, but I felt it was missing some pizazz so the gold trim was added after I completed the tank. Ohhh yes, just perfect and still very simple and chic. :) I made this tank out of a tablecloth, but of course you can purchase a tank top from anywhere and add any kind of trim. I used the left over gold trim from my DIY: Gold Spiral Cuff Bracelet. The front, back and side views. I wore this super cute tank with...

Hahaha it's so funny to see how much I've learned and improved over the years even though I had a year break from sewing. I apologize for the blurry pictures. I didn't have the best camera at the time, but you can still see my designs. My burnt orange dress with a gold braided belt, lace tights and beige heels. The dress has a beautiful open draped back but unfortunately I don't have a photo of it. :( My turquoise/aqua...

5 Minute Cheesecake

Finally! The recipe that I have teased you with and some of you have anticipated so I'm excited to share this! Yes, it's truueee! It takes only 5 minutes to make this cheesecake recipe. I added strawberries to mine since I didn't want a plain cheesecake, but of course you can put other kind of berries or whatnot to satisfy your cravings. This is the original recipe that I tried the first time and it didn't turn out too well for me possibly because I didn't follow the directions correctly. :P I used a whole can of condensed milk...
