Make It Perfect

“Oishii”…apparently it means “delicious” in Japanese. Well, I really hope it does, or else this could be kind of embarassing!!

I don’t think I have mentioned it on my blog yet but I know Carli has, so if you read her blog then you already know that the baby of our family is going on a mission to Japan.

Cade and a couple of his mates like to refer to anything good as “delicious” – it totally cracks me up…

“that swim at the beach was delicious”
“cricket’s on telly tonight – delicious”
“Fiji is going to be delicious”

Get it?!! I love it! Like the time some guy stopped outside Mum and Dad’s new house and told my brother Ty that the external cladding looked “Mickey Mouse”!! That was funny too.

I wanted to make Cade a pencil case to take with him as an early birthday gift as he celebrates his 20th birthday a couple of days after he leaves for the MTC. I needed it to be boy-friendly but also wanted something a bit different to plain fabric front and back. So I started hunting around and was totally inspired by this Etsy store. Check it out…such funky style!

The back of the pencil case is made from an old pair of cords that I don’t wear anymore – talk about sentimental value!!! Haha!

So fun to make, I can see myself going on a sewing spree with these…awesome way to use up some of the ever-growing scrap box!!

He hasn’t seen it yet but I know he will think it rocks 🙂
