Wardrobe ReFashion: the Pledge

by gidget green & natural living

I’ve been getting a lot more into repurposing/refashioning lately. So, I decided it was time to make a committment. I headed over to Wardrobe Refashion and signed the pledge for four months. That means that from September until the end of 2010 I am pledging to not buy any new clothes. I will repurpose, refashion, [...]

Tank Top ReFashion {Tutorial}

by gidget sewing & crafts

I’m still working on a tutorial for my t-shirt halter (I’m hoping to make a tute that is adaptable to your personal size), but in the meantime I’m leaving you with this fun reFashion! Yesterday, Gigi was sick (poor thing- hoping she wakes up better today after a good night’s sleep) and slept/watched movies a [...]

T-Shirt ReFashion

by gidget sewing & crafts

It started out as a boring t-shirt (cute print, boring shape, bought second-hand). I wanted to make it into a halter, based on a cute hand-me-down from my sister-in-law… voilá! Sorry about the poor, late-night lighting… I really love how it turned out. Can’t wait to make another!

A Summer Cold (lame-o!) and Refashioning T-shirts

by gidget green & natural living

I hate being sick in the summer!! It’s the worst! I started fighting a cold Saturday night, prayed to make it through my first time singing in our church’s worship band on Sunday (God answered those prayers and I was blessed to be able to sing), and started really feeling it that afternoon as we [...]

Gettin’ a Little Homemade

by gidget food

What’s going on in the Gidget household, you ask? Both kids are quiet for one thing (have I mentioned what a lifesaver LeapPad is?) after a not-so-pleasant grocery run. We did have a lovely morning at our new favorite place, though, the San Diego Botanical Garden. Oh, and the photo above is from our blueberry [...]

His Word in My Heart: May 2010

by gidget faith

One of the hardest things about having a newborn is obviously the middle of the night feedings. Now that we’re sliding into a routine with just one feeding in the middle of the night and then one early-morning feeding, I’m hoping to get myself back into some quality time with the Lord before my day [...]

Silver and Gold, Vol. II

by gidget sewing & crafts

Silver and Gold is a hopefully-weekly series where I’m sharing my favorite blogs with you, the old and the new. This week’s gold pick (an old fave) is… Joy’s Hope. I love Julie’s blog. Actually, I love Julie. I met her once for about five minutes, but otherwise, I’ve just grown to love her through [...]

Encyclopedia of Me: C is for…

by gidget life is beautiful

Remember this series? I’ve been a slacker but have been wanting to get back into it… so here goes with C! Crafts Surprised? Probably not, if you’ve been here long. If I had infinite amounts of free time {and was more organized}, I would probably spend most of crafting. I’ve been known to dabble in [...]

Tia’s Baby Shower

by gidget family

I had such a fun time planning and helping host a baby shower for my sweet sister-in-law. She and my brother are expecting their baby, Micah, in May. Alex and Angelina are into a pretty modern style– no pastels and teddy bears for these hipsters– and Angelina, also known as Tia in our family, is [...]
