Whatcha Doin' Wednesday!

I have spent alot of time this week (time I should have been using a bit more productively) perusing Pinterest! (if you don't have a pinterest account and need an invite, just shoot me an email and I will send you one!) I have pinned so many wonderful things! Things that I want to make, Things that I want to cook, Things that I want to bake, Things that I dream about! etc. etc. etc. If you Pin, then you know what I mean!
I came across this great way to upcycle a t-shirt last week and I pinned it of course! I had hoped that I would be able to make it soon! But like alot of Pinners.. I can pin with the best of them but when it comes down to getting busy and actually making things.. well, there is where I will lose the race! But I did it!! I made something I pinned! 

Yay me! :) 

So, if you subscribe to my channel on YouTube then you might have already seen my finished product and how I made it, but of course.. I can't leave out you guys here on my blog! I am not going to show a photo tutorial, because that has already been done for you by the wonderful Emily from Emily's Little World! I hope that you guys will head on over there and check out her blog! Good Stuff!!

Here are my finished T-shirt Roses! 
 Give this a try, instead of turning those old T-shirts into household cloths ( I had the term rags) Use them to make these great accessories! I am going to use the red one as a brooch and as an accent on my black purse and the grey one.. The grey one is going to become a very cute headband!
I would love to see your finished projects if you make them! What else have you been up to this week? Anyone get any DIY projects done in advance of Thanksgiving? I need to spend about 3 days doing a deep clean this week so that my house looks like I keep it neat and tidy! :) 

Let me know, I would love to see it!!
Want to see the video of how I made my flowers? Check it out here!

Thanks for coming by!
