I got an e-mail this morning labelled "Fashion Inspiration" from a close friend of mine who lives in Norway. We did a DTS ( Discipleship Training School ) together last year, and this girl has style! So I asked her if she would e-mail me every once and a while to let me know what’s new in fashion over there. The link above is what she sent me today :) I love getting e-mails from her, and can't wait until we get to meet up again. ( Its not fun living half way across the world from friends! )

DIY: Simple, Cute, Skirt

If your looking for a unique skirt for a Christmas, or New Years party here is an idea.

This little skirt involves NO sewing!! Its SUPER easy to make.

1: Take a mens dress shirt

2: Wear it around your waist (I was able to use the 3rd button down)

3: Button it up. (But skip a button or two to make a drape)

4: Tie the arms around.

And your done!!! I hope you enjoy this quick, unique, little idea!!

Day Dreaming

Today I'm counting down the days until the snow starts to melt. I know the first day of Winter isn't until the 21st but I can dream about the sun, beaches, and cute dresses right?? We've decided that we're going to try and make a collection of spring and summer dresses but, we need a little input from you guys as to what styles to make. These are a few ideas I would like to try but PLEASE let us know what kind of styles you would like to see us make. So leave a comment or a picture for us here or on our Facebook page. We look forward to hearing from you guys!

Christmas Tonight

Just a cute little Christmas song, hope it brightens your day a little! Its by Dave Barnes ft. Hillary Scott and its called Christmas Tonight.

P.S.  I kind of love the dress that she is wearing...

DIY: Easy Christmas Gift

My goal this year is to make each of my Christmas gifts. Today I tried these and I'm rather happy with how they turned out! So I'm going to share it with you guys. They're little flowers that would be cute added to a clip or a head band

1: I folded some material, pinned it, and put a simple flower design pattern on it.

.                                                     

2: Cut out the pattern.

3: CAREFULLY burn the edges of the petals.

4: Layer the petals, and sew them together.

5: Add a pearl

And your done! Like I said before you can add them to clips or a headband. They are cute and super easy to make! Hope you enjoy!!

P.S. if you do make some we would LOVE to see photos of how they turned out!

This Christmas Could Be Different

Sometimes its easy to get caught up with trying to find the perfect gifts that we lose sight of what Christmas is really about. This may seem wierd to put this up as a post for a Store's blog I realise this. But take a minute watch the video (maybe watch it more than once, I think I've watched it 3 times now today) and maybe re-think the way Christmas looks to you. Worship Fully, Spend Less, Give More, Love All.
