DIY Jewelery Frame

I feel in love with this Jewelry Frame from Urban Outfitters but didn't want to wait for shipping (patience is a virtue that I'm lacking). So I turned that lust into inspiration and decided to make my own!


It ended up being an extremely easy mission to fulfill!  Went to the Goodwill and found a pile of perfect frames. Then went to the hardware store picked some screening and had them cut and fit it to my frame. After that I popped it in and secured the screen with the frame pegs and... VOILA! 


Jewelery Frame that took me less than an hour to make and cost a little under five dollars!

Craft Time

Therapeutic Rice Bag  
Use an old cotton shirt or buy some cotton fabric- I used flannel because its really soft. Using a sewing machine, make a rectangular bag leaving one side open.  
Mix together basmati rice and a bit of lavender, depending on how potent you want it.
 
Fill the bag about 2/3 full with the rice mixture. 
Finish it off by sewing together the other side. 
Microwave for 1-2 minutes for a warm aromatic treat.
 Perfect to use in the winter weather!
