What are you planning to do while it's freezing outside? Well I want to curl up with one of Parachute Home's Striped Cashmere Throws! How comfortable does that sound. But... I guess we can't hibernate away this winter so here's a few DIY projects to get us through the cold months. P.S. I love Parachute Home's pallet bed!!!

This first project I finished up at Christmas time but didn't pack it away with all the decorations. It seems fitting for a few more months.

DIY Vintage Chic ~ Warm, Sweater Jars

Same applies for my Upcycled Lighted City Bottle. This one is staying out of storage for a while.

So what's next? A few crochet projects like a warm poncho to snuggle up in on the couch during these cold nights. I've already started this pattern in Caron Simple Soft Autumn Red {I wanted a solid color instead}.

Lion Brand ~ Crochet Cowl Neck Poncho

I've almost finished up a new hat as well! Love this pattern from Little Monkey's Crochet.

And I'm adding to my "sweater collection" decor and trying to upcycle an old sweater. I found this project through Hometalk.

A Purty House ~  Cozy Sweater Pillows

I'm trying my hand at another electrical project.... we'll see. So far my Lighted City Bottle hasn't burnt the house down. I want to create something similar to these pendant lights from Farm Fresh Vintage Finds {also found through Hometalk}.

Farm Fresh Vintage Finds ~ Custom Light from Coke Crate

And maybe some new shelves to go along with my Baker's Rack.
