I can't believe that I never heard of The Long Thread before! I saw these pinwheel coasters as one of their projects on they Make It Monday's feature and I absolutely love it. Not only does it look simple, yet modern and sleek, its SUPER easy to make! Check out their site for a tutorial.
Ever find a shirt at a thrift store or yard sale that you like, except for an unwanted logo? My boyfriend has to wear black collared shirts for his work dress code, which are in abundance at our local Value Village, but most have unwanted company branding, so I decided to do something about it!
