rouge whimsy pages the rouge whimsy shop about life wear make work with me 9 4 14 links lately that one time i found my 16th century doppelgänger at a thrift store i took a break this week it was decided last week i finished up my etsy shop orders and stuck it in vacation mode and i m trying to get life in order maybe not fully in order but you know like decently in order to be honest i feel a little lost i think it s that summertime sadness that lana del ray croons about it s the end of summer and fall is officially almost here and i m just not ready does anyone else feel that so i m cheering myself up with a few of these awesome links this business series from ashley at the shine project especially this post speaking of biz a t otally affordable small biz class from krystina registration starts next monday honestly i ve taken a few small biz etsy type courses in my day and i always find them to be quite the kick in the pants i need this kitchen remodel danielle shared makes me feel all the subway tile feels i have a lot of plums from my farm box and i think they should be made into this pie shared on girl versus dough this post about authenticity and fashion and invitation to share your own story i don t have kids but i love what carina shares about what to say to families that may be different from your own and let s end on a high note this bbc story about a couple who have been married 80 years listen to their interview it s adorable how they keep teasing each other and giggling happy friday 1 comment labels life links 9 1 14 where is your place where is your place where is the place where you feel like you don t have to do anything where time seems to stand still where calories don t count and napping midday is accepted and even encouraged where is the place where you play cards for hours and it doesn t matter who wins although competitive streaks will appear where everything is funny and inside jokes are formed and held where is the place where it s always sunny and even if it rains it feels bright where feet are dirty manicures are chipped and you don t mind the bug bites that dot your ankles where is the place where you re outside and you ll do it all try it all where it feels good to be exhausted from doing everything yet nothing i think my place has changed over the years most recently it s at a small house my parents bought and are fixing up on whidbey island it s just about an hour north from seattle the trip includes a ferry ride but feels worlds away 2 comments labels life 8 26 14 quick easy diy lunchbag my lunch bag has been in dire need of replacement there s only so long before the endless crumbs oozes from leaky tupperware and overripe fruit can render a lunch bag useless i ve been meaning to make a replacement and i finally got around to it after hitting up my favorite seattle fabric shop for some adorable fabric for the project i came up with a pretty no frills design and guaranteed you can whip this sucker out pretty quickly note i used laminated cotton only because i preferred the print but oil cloth works well too it will just be a little thicker also i bought half a yard and maybe you could squeak by perhaps with a third of a yard but i always err on the side of fabric caution let s get started 1 fold the fabric in half and cut out one rectangle measuring 11 inches wide and 12 inches tall cut the top opening of the lunch bag on both sides with pinking shears this not only looks nice but it keeps it from fraying oil cloth won t fray but laminated cotton can 2 place the rectangles right side to right side as seen in the photo above and stitch with a half inch seam allowance down the right side along the bottom and back up the left side making sure to back stitch when you start and stop sewing 3 to add extra depth to the bag add box corners keeping the bag inside out match the bottom seams to each other on the bottom corner seam creating a triangle and measure one inch from the top of the triangle mark a line you will stitch along this line do this for both bottom corner seams turn the bag inside out and you ll have nice matching box seams as seen in the photo above 4 cut two 1 2 inch wide 30 inch long straps you could do 1 or even 1 1 2 inch strap if desired fold the strap in half and stitch along the open side use binder clips or paper clips to keep the strap folded in place as pins don t work well on oil cloth this is a pretty no frills way to create straps if you want ones that look more finished follow this tutorial 5 place the straps about two inches in from the seam and about an inch and a half down stitch onto the bag i stitch a square with an x through the middle down one side across the bottom up the other side and across the top and then two diagonal lines through for added stability this is a really simple tutorial and you could do more with it by adding a liner or pockets but as is it s a cheery option that will carry any lunch in style now what to put in your cute new lunch bag how about some printable lunch notes my friend tori from the piccoli blog and shop created an adorable download for you go check it out 2 comments labels diy 8 20 14 on being yourself a free ebook i probably win the most awkward kid award you know you can picture it red hair gangly with knobby knees and pointy elbows with a tendency to stay up too late reading you can imagine that when i hit junior high i desperately no longer wanted to be like myself and it s taken years for me to finally get back to a place where i am learning to accept and love who i am that does not mean that i don t need a little kick in the pants every so often to remind myself that hiding who i am helps no one maybe you need a little pep talk too first off be yourself you were fearfully and wonderfully made and you are who you need to be second of all there s a whole lot more of that in my friend liz s e book she is a delightful writer and beautiful human being and she s offering her e book get naked why the world needs you to be a little more you for free confession i read it and i like it and i think you guys would like it too you can snag it on her website and also in honor of her book being released yay she has an awesome giveaway up on her site with goodies like an amazon giftcard in case after you learn to be more like you you want to celebrate so go on over download the e book and say hi to liz on instagram happy thursday friends 2 comments labels life 8 17 14 real life is not hgtv recently i ve been watching a lot of hgtv my mom is an interior designer and she s always telling me about shows i should watch so i finally gave in the other reason i m watching hgtv the thought that it would give me some solace as the basement remodel stretches into its sixth month yes six months for a basement part of it is that our house is old and all of the electrical and the plumbing needed to be replaced then there was a sewer issue and a dryer vent issue and another plumbing issue and some financial stuff issues hgtv doesn t show these issues in a half hour a room is transformed in an hour a whole house little snippets and i get why they don t show the discussions about where we should budget and the minatue of a sewer line replacement it s no fun to watch before and afters with light hearted banter now that s fun yes the obvious real life is not hgtv but now into month six i realize that while yes it would be nice to have our space done some things just aren t instant and that s just part of the richness of life we just see small moments of life on tv or even social media but the back story is always more complicated like a 6 month plus renovation but i will have to say we did some major work on our basement this weekend and even moved some furniture in the 6 months will be capping soon 4 comments labels life the house older posts home i m erika a writer small shop owner believer and chips and salsa eater learn more here categories
