I went to the fringe festival in Saskatoon...and nearly caved...so much pretty clothing!! So instead, I rewarded myself by buying two leather handtooled gemstone journals Happy and a bike lock. No clothes yet!

Going to be making some things for my new apartment, Guiness Oven Mitts are on the list (made from an old Guiness shirt). Either that, or I will make one from a Toronto Raptors shirt, and the other from a Toronto Argos shirt...welcome my boyfriend to Toronto Tongue

well like I said on my blog, shoes are kinda hard to make and sometimes 2nd hand or vintage, may now be street worthy. I know, broke heels on my vintage cowboy boots

I think uniforms are required, so I wouldnt include them. Most people dont include shoes either...I just am because I have too many shoes Tongue
