— October 10, 2009 — Eco
The economy may be looking up, but that doesn’t mean you should hang up your crafty cap and call it a night on DIY fashion. Instead, you should embrace your creative self and realize that you don’t need an excuse to spend some quality time with those knitting needles stored in the closet or glue gun stuck to the bottom of your tool box.

DIY projects are a fun pastime, especially when it results in stylish presents for yourself or your friends and family. So continue to say yes to DIY fashion, because it’s worth it.
