One of the things that has really been bothering me lately, is the amount of chemicals in our household, personal care and cosmetic products. In an effort to reduce the amount of chemicals floating around my home, and being put on my body, I started doing some research on all natural products that were affordable and accessible.
In an effort to get “back to basics” in my home, and find budget friendly, frugal options for cleaning, homesteading, and just simply being independent of store bought, commercially made, chemical induced products, I have started turning to my craft stash to help out.
I set out on a mission to create fun, unique Christmas ornaments with supplies I already had on hand, when I came across a set of sling rings I’ve been holding onto since my daughter who is now 4 was a baby. Since she’s a “big girl” now, we have no need for a baby sling. After perusing my sewing supply stash a bit longer, It hit me… a wreath ornament!
Walking into the fabric store and seeing the millions of sewing notions can be a bit overwhelming. There are long pins, short pins, rulers, tape measures, and every other thing you could possibly think of when it comes to sewing. So, which ones do you need?
Sewing, like most hobbys requires a lot of stuff! There are needles, pins, fabrics, rulers, and on and on. Because of the shear amount of items one acquires, it would be easy to think you need a dedicated sewing room. However, you can easily be a great seamstress without taking over valuable bedroom space in your home.
