LOVE MAKING AMULET BAGS

 Amulet bags are small, wearable pouches traditionally used across diverse global cultures to hold sacred items, protective charms, and personal mementos for spiritual guidance and defense against harm.  I LOVE making them.

           I have so many small pieces of scrap fabric. This project was a perfect way to use them!
Use scrap fabrics, trims, lace, whatever you have!

Are you going to make one?
xo, Mark!

Glam Summer Sunglasses inspired by Elton John!

 When I was a kid, Elton John and the song Rocket Man was the soundtrack to my life! If I could have worn these glasses to school without getting beaten to a pulp, I would have!  Now that I'm a grown man I'm going to start wearing these to the grocery store just to give my neighbors something else to talk about.  Happy Friday everyone!


Watch how to make them here!

Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!
