a quick weekend project

This was a busy weekend so I didn't have much crafting time! Although I have a birthday coming up that I haven't even started working on yet...gulp! But a few weekends ago I bought some fabric to make a skirt around my bathroom sink. I was stranded at my house for a few hours on Saturday, which left just enough time to complete the project....

Before.....
See how completely unattractive it is to see all my bathroom cleaners and hair brushes/tools

After...TADA!

It was really super easy. I used 2 yards of fabric, but it was a little short. I just gathered the top and put a hem at the bottom. The best part is that the skirt puddles a little so my hem didn't have to be exact...I love that kind of sewing! Also, the magic to keeping it up under the sink...duct tape! That stuff is so useful!

I also helped with a fun race this weekend called Mutt Strut. It is a dog friendly 5k that benefits Hand In Paw (an amazing non-profit.... check it out). There were almost 500 runners and fun run walkers out on Saturday enjoying the nice, but rather chilly & windy, Saturday.

It was a great day and a perfect spot!

This is Lula. She is a therapy dog and sooooo sweet!

I thought these dogs were adorable!
The owner said they don't shed...maybe I should get one ;)
