DIY Accent Pocket


Easy and Adorable Accent Pocket

What you'll need:
Shirt w/ existing pockets 
Fabric
Fabric Glue or Hot Glue
Scissors 

  1. Create a template for the pocket using either extra fabric or piece of paper.  
  2. Using the template, cut out two pocket shapes from your fabric of choice
  3. Glue the fabric on top of the existing pocket
**Tip: My existing pocket had a working button already, so I placed the fabric on the glue and snipped a small slit in the fabric over where the button was.  Then I slipped the fabric around the button and readjusted/smoothed it out again.

Tumblr Inspired Rainbow Cookies

Aren't they just spectacular?!
This is not a stock photo, this is the actual cookies I took out my oven!!

What you need:
Sugar cookie mix or recipe
Food coloring

What to do:
  1. Mix the sugar cookie dough according to whichever recipe you are following.
  2. Separate the dough into four equal balls.
  3. Add the different food coloring colors to each and knead until well mixed.
  4. From each color take a small amount and roll into a ball.  Ideally you want to make each one the size of a grape
  5. Take one of the small balls of each color and roll it together.  It'll resemble a beach ball.
  6. Roll that ball out into a strip about 6 inches long.  I found that the colors mixed better if you twist while rolling it out.
  7. Roll that strip up so it creates a circle.
  8. Bake for 10-13 minutes at 350 degrees and enjoy!!
