DIY | Felt Envelope Laptop Sleeve

I was gifted a lovely laptop last September when I started graduate school but clumsy me has been bumping it against walls and such because I tend to carry it by hand. I've been meaning to make a sleeve for it since forever to prevent scratches but haven't had the chance until this past Christmas break. I decided to bust out my cheap $20 sewing machine and was pleasantly surprised that it was so easy to use (the thought of threading the thing kept me away from it for so long lol)! Looking forward to trying out more sewing projects! :)

DIY | Advent Calendar Day 7: Gold Dotted Envelope

As you may or may not know, I'm a huge fan of the 99c store. They surprisingly have some pretty decent, good quality stuff like these nail stickers I found. This set of 20 of sparkly ombre light to dark gray was one of the more plain designs, which I thought would fit Debbie's taste. They also have all sorts of patterns including checkered, zebra, and leopard print for those of those interested. I packaged these with a simple gold dotted envelope topped off with a little toothpick flag.

DIY | Advent Calendar Day 4: Star Bow Envelope

For Day 4, I found this lovely elongated geometric diamond necklace at Forever 21 on sale for 99c (but which had a further 50% off reduction, so 49c)! I packaged it in a mini envelope adorned with a four-pointed star bow (for day number four!) out of old book pages :)
