Roll-up Accessory Case

Happy Monday!  Summer starts for us today- my daughter finally finished up school on Friday.  We are ready to have some fun- swim classes, summer movies, water park visits, etc.  The only thing I’m not looking forward to is the inevitable brother/sister fighting.  Tell me I’m not the only one whose kids fight way more when they are home from school…. We had a busy weekend- pictures for my daughter’s dance recital, getting my daughter’s ears pierced, and church and meetings!  I used the little down time I had to create my project for today-

Remember the roll-up accessory case I featured from Anngela’s Pretty Little Things?  I really needed one for my new makeup bag, so I pulled out some scraps and got to work.

Here’s what I came up with: I chose black because I knew it would get dirty in the makeup bag.  I liked the contrast stitching on the pocket, but I didn’t’ like how it made the back look.  I solved that by hot gluing a ribbon down the middle of the back (ignore the glue strings.  I thought I got them all- grrr…) Now all my brushes and small makeup items have a home.  Love it!

Have a great week!
