Currently Reading

I love to read! Unfortunately with school I have not been able to read books of my choice. One reason is because I had other books to read for various assignments, but another reason is because I just really did not have time. Well the semester if finally ending and I now have time to read again! Here's the book I'm currently reading. 


The Happiness Project
by Gretchen Rubin.

This is a self-help book. I am not unhappy by no means, but I have ran across this book more than once and it always catches my eye. I had to order some book for school off of Amazon, and I needed to add one more item to have my order over $25 so I could get the free shipping. Well I ended up finally getting this book. I haven't read much of it yet, but so far it is really good!
 
I'll let you what I think about it when I finish it!
Have you read this book before? What did you think?

Chevron

So I'm pretty sure you've noticed, but the chevron print has become pretty popular these days. I really don't even know how it got started, but I love it! I am right in line with all the other people who are currently obsessing with the print. It can be on anything, it really doesn't matter as long as it's the chevron print I'll love it. Ha ha. Now, if you have the grey and white or a coral chevron print I'm in love even more (if that is even possible!). I am currently trying to master the art of painting the print, but I have not successfully succeeded yet.
For now, I will just continue to admire anything and everything I find in chevron!
 
 
Here is some fabric I recently purchased! I actually have some pillows like this already, but I bought this fabric for an order. I just love these colors!
 
How do you feel about chevron? Do you have another pattern you are obsessing over?

Scarves



Scarf season is finally here! I seriously think I have an obsession with scarves. I buy WAY to many! Every time I go shopping I am instantly drawn to the scarves...like seriously INSTANTLY! ha ha. I do try to hold myself back so I won't go broke just from the scarves. Luckily I have figured out how to make scarves, so being able to make them helps me not buy so many. I love how scarves help keep me warm. I am always cold! I am always the one in class who is freezing while everybody else is sweating. Scarves are a way to help me stay warm and still look cute.
Here are some pictures of the scarves I make:
