For those of you that couldn’t be at the Ikea DIY event a few weeks ago, you can catch the flavored drink recipe portion on the Ikea Houston blog! Trust me, you’ll really like this one. Plus it’s crazy simple and you could make jugs of it in about the same time frame that it takes to eat a cupcake. It’s been proven, take my word for it.

I hope you’re free next Saturday (and if not, try and make that happen?), because I’ll be at Ikea Houston hosting another DIY event for the Bring Your Own Friend weekend! I may be biased since I’m usually the one doing all of the talking, but Ikea events are seriously my favorite. Not only will this free DIY totally be worth showing up for, but if you came to the last one then you’ll know how much free stuff we give away. It’s kind of insanely awesome. Plus, who doesn’t like a reason to go to Ikea?

If you want to come, RSVP here by selecting the Houston location and you’ll also get some quick goodies. See you there!

Yes, I am alive and well. There were a few hiccups in the moving process including a life threatening gas leak in the new house, among many other things, but alas we have officially moved all of our stuff. Thank God my dad flew in to help us with everything this week or I would have been in a gas filled room somewhere, weeping my DIY heart out. It’s been a long week.

Needless to say, I have quite a few fish to fry still, so I’ll spare you the moving boxes and leave you with these DIY fabric scented sachets that I made for Ikea Houston. Let me know what you think!

P.s- thanks for all of the well wishes on moving and Martha Stewart, it means the world to me :)

I’m starting to really, really love DIY events, but I’m quickly learning that Houston-ites aren’t big “go out and craft” type of people. This is unfortunate considering I’m a self-proclaimed hilarious and fun person, with just a tinge of awkward. Add those characteristics to a cute venue and some cupcakes, and you’ve got yourself one happening Sugar & Cloth DIY hurrah.

I’ll be sharing the tutorial for the necklaces we made soon, but you can see the live tutorial by Lamgford, here. I also wanted to go ahead and bully  encourage you to mark your calendars for the next event at Ikea Houston on March 9th. We’re going to be making some seriously cute stuff that’s well worth keeping, trust me! Plus if you were at the last one, then you know there are LOTS of cool giveaways. Basically I just gave something to everyone. Speaking of giveaways, the winner of the DecoArt giveaway is Allison! Congrats, and I’ll be emailing you with details!

I’m officially back from Alt! I’ve got lots of cool goodies and must-have info to share with you this week, but right now I’m still trying to transition back into real life. It’s been a little crazy considering the last two days have involved days of almost no sleep, countless friends made, a car accident, and waking up sick. Let me just tell you that it’s never a dull moment here, folks!

On a smoother note, in case you missed my DIY workshop at Ikea and want to catch up on all of the details, you can read my full post here on the Ikea Houston website. Go check it out and leave some comments there letting me know what you think, but preferably just how awesome I am? Just kidding, sort of…
