(Photo courtesy of The Graphics Fairy) Happy Valentine's Day to all of my bloggy friends. Hope you're all being spoiled rotten today! Jeanine ...
Got a bit of my crafting mojo back. And since it's a cold, miserable Sunday, I didn't mind staying in and spending time in my craft room. This project took me literally 5 minutes from start to finish. You probably know how much I love Ikea's stripe towels. I've used them in a ton of projects and I always have a bunch on hand.
