Me Made May #9: Week 5, Staying Alive


Monday:  (No IG post) Raglan T
Tuesday:(No IG post) Jane T-shirt
Wednesday: (No IG post) Rae Skirt in rust colored poppies

Reflections:
This was just a piece of the month, but it was also the final week of school, so documentation did not happen.  I think the big thing I decided was how much more important just wearing the clothes that I made was to me than to post photos.  Any teacher can tell you this is a tough week.  You're just trying to make it to the end.  But now it's over, which means more sewing!  Look for those posts as they come through.  Also, this will be short because I've made a full project reflection that I'll post during the week.  Let me just tell you what to look forward to:
-Posts about sewing projects
-A hair style post.  No, really, this will happen.
-More We Make Stuff posts
-Yard updates

So, keep posted.  I'm thinking I'll stay with the Sunday post date, but it may be more frequent as it is summer.

Me Made May Post #3: The Purpose of Pinterest

I have a Pinterest problem.  I love it, so very very much.  When I have moments of downtime during my days, I'll peruse it at my leisure for craft ideas, hair ideas, fashion ideas, teaching activity ideas or just basic inspiration.   My husband often wonders why we run out of data every month.  Between Pinterest and Instagram, it's me.  It's all me. Now to the purpose of this post.  As I began preparation for Me Made May (see last post), I found myself spending an increasing amount of time on Pinterest, and I found myself actually starting to consider some of the projects I've Pinned.  A lot of the modification and project idea (as well as informative tutorials) have found their way onto my boards, and I want to share this journey with you. How We Met I was introduced to the magic that is Pinterest via my teacher education program.  No, I'm not kidding.  During our technology class, we learned about Blogger as way to share our teach...
