So I'm working with what I have for yarn. I'm not going out and buying any until I deplete my supply. I have quite a bit between what I've collected over the years and what I got from my Nana.
I don't remember why I picked up a bunch of this blue yarn, but I have it now, and it just so happens to not only match my parents' kitchen (like the birds my mommy adopted), but it also happens to match the color of my bathroom! (Thank you dear brother for actually being able to finish a painting project!)
So I was thinking of what I could make for the bathroom to make it look all purdy and stuff. Maybe if I'm proud of something I made for a room, I'll actually clean that room to show off my proud creation? For those of you that don't know me, I am the extreme opposite of a clean freak so I'm always trying to think of ways to motivate myself to clean and organize. So far, none of them have worked. Maybe this one might? That's for time to tell.
For my project, I decided to make a toilet paper cover. Pointless? Very much so, but I still think it came out cute. My bathroom is small and pretty boring. I don't have a fun shower curtain or rug, but now I can smile when I look at my toilet paper and say "I made that!!!" Then I can frown when I realize there's no toilet paper inside it because someone took it out and forgot to tell me! Because of the ripples, it's sturdy enough to hold its shape, so it really could happen!
As for giving me the motivation to clean, at least I got rid of all the dust on the back of the potty. That's a start, right? :D
