craft goodness :)

last tuesday was my birthday and my friends got me the best present of all....
a vintage singer 237 sewing machine.
yeah it's nerdy but it is the one and only thing i ever could have wished for.
and i thought you girls would be equally excited :)

i got a bunch of other cool stuff too: an all veggie cookbook and a cute little bamboo plant.

anyways, i went on a craft store shopping spree today [yep, definitely spent $50] and i got tons of stuff.

also, i made my first sewing machine project the other night! a grocery bag holder!
haha...kinda lame but we really needed one.

anyways...check it all out:
