Po’ Girl Project Updates
Just wanted to post some of my recent projects. I hope to have an etsy shop very soon and have included various states of some of my projects.
The first one is a slide show of a pot holders sewing project that matches an apron previously made.
The last coat of acrylic paint in a cream color has finally covered the cottage cheese label on this plastic container I plan to use as a hanging lamp. (more to come on that project on instructables.com.)

I used to only use transfer paper on my fabric, but this time just printed some of my photos on printer paper and adhered them to fabric and glass with acrylic matte medium so I can use them for natural jewelry pieces and embellishments using beads, eyelets, paint, threads, etc. I just like to play around and see where my imagination takes me sometimes.


I purchased some Crayola air dry clay in white to make odds & ends of pendents using molds and stamps to shape and alter for jewelry. I inserted wire to hang or attach. Update to come later after painting or decoupaging tissue to show how something so cheap and easy can look really good.


Just starting another instructable for a nightgown made from a Queen size bedsheet, flat. I tea stained the fabric first to give it a vintage look.

Decided to upcycle a thread-worn cream colored turtle neck sweater. Cut down the center to insert a zipper. I am in the process of sewing on strips of faux fur.


Po’ Girl Shines Little Bits


Still missing my little baby Raizen, waiting for me to come home after work.
Can’t believe it is already September, and 2012 yet! Didn’t even bother to buy any 2013 Calendars, how about you all?
Was featured again on Instructables. I plan on having much more information on that site in the near future. Food, sewing and crafts. My latest featured was Drawstring purse with cubbies inside to put things in. Again this step by step “how-to” can be found on instructables.com. Hope to have more info soon on Po’ Girl hand made clothing and will let you know when the etsy store opens!



Mouse Finger Puppets For a Rainy Day!
You can look up mouse finger puppets on the instructables.com website for further instructions. I made these years ago when my children were young. Found one packed away and thought to put the instructions online so others could enjoy it with their kids. Meanwhile enjoy the lame puppet show (warning, contains graphic subject matter of one of the mouse puppets losing an eye in battle!).
