ॐ Better Version of Me: Purple, Mustaches, and Paris
http://betterversionofme-tracie.blogspot.com/2013/11/purple-mustaches-and-paris.html
Purple, Mustaches, and Paris. That is the theme for my daughter's room. We are almost done so I wanted to post some updated photos. I wanted to use a lot of the furniture we already had but she had a junior loft bed that she had outgrown. We found this one used on Craiglist for $50. I painted it and added new drawer pulls. Trunk and rugs I got on sale at Meijer. White shelf for $1 at Goodwill. The cubbies and shelving unit where from her old room, I painted them to update. So I brushed on the second coat.

ॐ Better Version of Me: Flexatarian Cooking
http://betterversionofme-tracie.blogspot.com/2015/03/flexatarian-cooking.html
As most of you know, I have been a Flexatarian for a long time. I finally talked my husband into reducing the amount of meat we eat to once or twice a week. We still will eat fish, eggs, and cheese. Over the past 6 months I have been trying out a lot of new meat replacements and even some cheese replacements and am quite happy with the things I have made. Here are a few of my favorites:. This Chicken Stylee Seitan. These are some of the things I made with it. I have also been making fermented nut cheeses...

Upcycling for the holidays: Candy Cane Hearts. I had bought a bunch of candy canes right before Christmas and they did not get eaten. Since I have started the 17 Day Diet again, I cannot have them. I did a search and found that you can melt them into hearts. I cannot find the original post but it is so easy. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Some of the canes were broken so we placed them on the baking sheet, placed a dish towel over them, and whacked them with a hammer. I then shaped them into this heart.

My daughter has High School Musical fold up chair that we decided to reuse when we redid her room. I completed the slip cover today and am really happy with how it turned out. I didn't even use a pattern. Back: I used an loop and eye hook to secure the corner under the bow. Sewed the back and front of the back of the chair together so it will slip over the back and then just finished the seams. It was a very easy project. Reflection of sky in water droplet on kohlrabi.

We started redoing my daughter's room recently. Well, we actually gutted our whole upstairs, so it is a huge project. I decided rather than buy her a lot of new items to reuse as many as I could. This involved a lot of painting. This chair is a Hannah Montanna folding chair. I am going to just finish the edges of this fabric and make a slip cover. These are two of the four cubby shelves she has. Still the process of painting this, needs one more coat. It was white. I can't wait until the drywall is up an...
