DIY? Sure, Why Not!

After much contemplation, I have decided to add a weekly feature to Foxy. Yes, yes, I know, it's all very unorthodox of me to even consider. Generally, my posts are completely guided by whims and nothing more.

Lately though, I have been intrigued by all the DIY projects out there. All those pretty pictures enticing me to come on, try me - you know you want to. Why can't I make that pom pom wreath with the deer in it I saw on Twitter? I so could make that sunburst mirror! Origami garland? No problem! Dinner? Bring. It. On.

I should go on record that I am not, by any stretch of the imagination, crafty, good with my hands, or someone who DIYs. I am the girl whose solution to things like gardening, cooking, and decorating is to buy it, pay someone, or rope in my husband or an innocent passersby to take care of it. Well, no more, my friends! I am going to take on one DIY project a week to broaden my horizons and find out for myself if I really can DIY as all those clever blogs and magazines tell me I can. I suspect there will some spectacular fails, but it'll be fun! Plus, I have always wanted to try origami.

Each Monday, I will post about the challenge, and then within a week post my attempts.

I am gong to start out with Tea Cup Flower Arrangements from Frolic. If you have any project suggestions, comment below!
