A Little Project for a Snowy Afternoon

Today has been pretty uneventful, other than the fact that I cleaned the bathroom! (Does anyone know of a good brand of shower cleaner? I just cannot find one to get my tub clean!) It is odd the sense of satisfaction that comes from accomplishing something so low on my list of things I like to do. Ok, actually... it's not on my list at all. BUT it was on my "To-Do" list for today... so I am just glad that it's over with and I can breathe a sigh of relief that the bathroom is nice and clean (... for now).

Anywho. After doing a few other things around the house (vacuuming and laundry are never ending)... I decided to check out a book that Cory got me for Christmas. I was in a sewing mood... but not something complicated. So, I busted out my SEW WHAT? BAGS! Book and found an instructional for a cute little tote bag. The directions were pretty easy... and overall, I probably only spent about 40 mins on it (and that was in between switching laundry and such!). I just wanted to share the finished product with you. But just remember... I am not a professional seamstress, sewer, stitcher or whatever you want to call it! I am still trying to sew in straight lines! LOL! But either way, I am pleased with my final product!

(You can see how small the tote is next to my phone and keys)

This is the first project I've done out of that book... and I enjoyed myself! Definitely would recommend it, especially if you aren't the kind of person who likes to mess with a pattern (like me!).

Hope you're all having a lovely day!! The snow is really coming down outside of my window! Too bad I don't have any hot chocolate in the house! :)
