I have something a little different for you this week. First of all, it’s three days late, which is different. It’s also a video, completely unedited and with random people in costume wandering through the background. And I have no intention of apologizing for these things* because I spent all last week helping to organize […]

Microsoft Windows earrings
When your boyfriend works as a professional videographer and writer of silly/funny web videos, you sometimes get interesting phone calls. Yesterday’s went something like: Me: Hello? B/f: Hey sweetie, listen, do you think when you get home tonight you could make a pair of earrings that look like the Windows logo? We need them for […]

felt poppies for Remembrance Day
When I was a kid growing up in the Midwest, each November my American friends would ask me why I was wearing a red flower on my coat. Canadians pretty much blend right in south of the 49th parallel, given enough time, but you can sometimes pick them out by looking for a few weird […]

quick and easy fairy wings
Halloween approaches, and with it the stress of finding a costume that doesn’t make you look like a stripper on her way to Fantasy Land. (Y’know, beyond the fact that they’re totally skanky, has it occurred to anyone that those costumes would be f***ing cold?!) Fairy costumes are super easy to put together because all […]

t-shirt mod – sleeveless scalloped style
Let’s do another sleeveless t-shirt mod, before the weather gets so cold that even I can’t pretend sleeveless is seasonally appropriate. I bought this charming piece from Sam Logan, the Vancouver-based artist behind the webcomic Sam & Fuzzy. (He has some truly wonderful t-shirts, understatedly geeky and entirely awesome.) I told him when I bought […]

sew your own skinny jeans
Today I’m going to explain the very simple process of turning normal jeans into skinny jeans. The obvious question is, of course, why would you want to? Skinny jeans look good on girls under the age of 12 and girls who look like they’re under the age of 12. And that’s pretty much it. Oddly […]

round paper earrings
Today’s post comes to you via special request from Twitterer thatlaurachick. Woot! I love earrings the way some women (with more closet space) love shoes. The way some obscenely rich people love Prada bags and BMWs. The way – just to bring it down to earth a little – some people love fantasy novels and […]
