I bought this @tommyhilfiger shirt a few weeks ago. One of the main reasons was this cool little detail under the collar. However, if I wanna show it off, I have to pop my collar and that’s a hard no. Now you see my predicament, right?
My struggles are real.

It is officially spring, I purchased a new pair of icy white Vans Era shoes and so all I needed was a nice new pair of shorts. At the thrift store, I found this wonderfully off-white, kinda cream coloured heavy twill fabric and I knew it was meant to be!
For the pockets, I used the same fabric I used for the lining in the tote bag I made about a month ago.
It took much longer than I had anticipated, but the shorts turned out wonderfully! I am pleased as punch with them and will definitely rock them soon.

My good friend (and only subscribe to this site presently … I see you) brought me back this book when he visited Japan. It’s about the Le Sape people in Congo. Le Sape translates to “Elegant People.” An apt description I think.

I’m going back to school! A metaphorical school that is …
This week I decided to learn how to sew the welt pockets often found on the back of pants.
The process was fairly straightforward thanks to a few tutorials I found on YouTube but that didn’t mean I was any good. I ended up making three copies of the welt pocket just to improve my technique and get some experience under my belt.

My babies are a week old. I made them last Saturday and I have had the most delicious naps this past week. You’re missing out. I did make a video about making these pillows. Wanna see it?

I nap on my couch on an almost daily basis. The pillows I have are hard and uncomfortable. But I am not a problems man, I believe in finding solutions, so I went to my local thrift store and bought fresh pillows along with some super soft blanket scarves and got to work. Boy am I looking forward to my future naps.

Who is not only the proud owner but also the creator of this here table/counter island … Or as I call it my peninsula? This guy! I made it out of an old Ikea cabinet and filmed the process. Oh, you wanna see that video?
