Wen Hair Care Review

If you know me, you know I have crazy, coarse, curly hair.  It loves to frizz....ugh.  Anywho, my mom bought me Wen (you know, from the T.V. infomercial).  I got the basic package.  It has the cleansing conditioner, nourishing treatment, replenishing mist, anti-frizz styling creme, and root lift.  When I first used it my hair felt like silk in the shower, that's really saying something.  It works great, and smells great too.

Welcome!

Welcome!  Thanks for stopping by!! People like to ask what I'm working on...so why not show everyone in one place.   
I'm 15 and I take sewing lessons from Alice Hiatt at Alice's Tailoring in Saint George.  Also...DI is my go to store for do-it-yourself projects (I LOVE DIY). 
Please leave comments and questions or email me at techitori@gmail.com.

I was inspired by some of my favorite blogs: www.vintagerevivals.com & www.merricksart.com.

Tailoring Experiment

Every once in a while, my dad gives me a stack of clothes he isn't using (sometimes the clothes are pretty new). This time he gave me some sweatpants as part of that stack so I could figure out what to do with them. Well I thought heck ya I love comfy clothes. It was a new experience for me. I've never slimmed something down a couple sizes smaller.  Here's some befores...

I took the inside of the legs in 2 inches.

Then I had to figure out a way not to sew the elastic at the ankles. 

I knew I wanted baggy sweatpants, but when I got to the crotch, I had to take it in a little.  They were men's sweatpants after all.

Then, right below the elastic at the waist I took it in 2 inches.  That way it blended in with the bottom of the elastic.

End result!

Blank Canvas

It all started with a blank canvas I got for $2 at a yard sale. I found a tutorial for a chevron patterned (I love chevron :) canvas on Pinterest http://pinterest.com/pin/209558188881469170/ and I went to work with my painters tape and spray paint.
