WHAT ME?? I’M LIKE AN URBAN MARTHA STEWART AND SHIT
18.12.08
So my ass loves designer shit but not enough to pay a ridiculous amount of money for it. So I am always on the hunt to make and create things for myself, The Fabric Lab and for my Denver Public Library classes that I teach, think of me as an Urban Martha Stewart on a Very, Very, Limited Budget. So the awesome guys of Joy Engine asked me to join there Blogging Mecca and share my love of fashion + DIY. I can not compete with the other fab contributor’s on here, so please bare with me until I get the hang of this and don’t start talking shit to me right off the bat because I will probably cry
Give it a couple blogs before you start on me.
JE I hope you guys made the right decision to have me on here?? Thanks and Love you guys and I will not embarrass you guys too much
So here it goes…..my first contribution.
It’s tough times right now and many of us can’t really afford fancy gifts for the holidays so why not make it yourself??? Drum roll please….a Crochet Chanel Bag! WTF! I LOVE IT! It’s like and a BIG F-U to the High End Designer World and making fun of the whole social status BS. (I have actually heard a women ask another if her bag was real or a knock off, I literally wanted to vomit on-site and stab my eye’s out!) So I found this awesome website CounterfeitCrochet.org out of SF, they have patterns to make these awesome designer crochet knock off bags and also hold DIY Workshops and Exhibits all over the world. I am thinking about contacting them myself and holding one here in Denver. I hope you guys find my blogs useful in some weird, nerdy kinda way>>>Enjoi! Tran
