Both of these crafts are Martha inspired! These two on the left are fabric covered cork board. I bought them at Walmart for $3 and spray painted the frames black then covered the cork with what used to be a place mat from Crate & Barrel! I think they turned out pretty cute! I think I will take them to work with me since number one they don't match anything in my house, number two I don't have anything cute in my office and number three well I guess they are just pretty and I'm looking forward to having something pretty at work. :) 
This bag is from Martha's website. She has a tutorial for making bags out of pillowcases. I was hoping to find a cute vintage pillow case but found none. This was from Ikea's "as is" bins and will be great for the beach because it was a pretty heavy fabric. I love the "as is" section it is like convenient garage saleing (sp?) since we have one right across the street from us. Most days all they have is junk but every so often you find a treasure!

Hey Jamie. I found your blog through Daisha's and Jenn's. This is Keri ( Sellers) by the way. Can i just tell you, You haven't aged a bit. And you look even prettier than i remember ( if that's at all possible) Well looks like you and your little family are all doing well. It's such a small world. My husband and i almost bought your parents place. And my grandma lives in that care home right next to your parents. Anyways.... You are too cute!! You are all crafty and stuff. I try to be, but i just don't have the talent. It's nice to know that someone else my age likes Martha Stewart too. ( i thought i was the only one) Well take care of yourself. Keri
Those are perfect! I'm especially a fan of the cork boards. I love being able to make super cute projects for cheap...maybe I'll have to suscribe to Martha's magazine...Certainly idea central.
