This morning, I finally finished a project that I’ve had on queue for months. With a few TV shows and the internet (read Pinterest) distracting me, the past few weeks had been quite unproductive. So when our internet connection started acting out (resulting in 2 consecutive nights without internet access and a night without cable TV!), I got the nudge I needed to get something done.
A few months ago, I bought the shirt–pictured above–from the Salvation Army with a few projects in mind. It sat on my crafting basket for a long while before I finally found the time and drive to bust out the seam ripper and start working on a project.
This is a sketch of a water buffalo I drew a couple of years ago, for a stencil. I liked it so much that I had decided to reuse it as the pattern for this project.
Have you unplugged from your electronic devices lately? What projects have you been working on? And how do you get things done despite all the distractions?
Such a cute idea! We had an unplug for spring break, & it was very productive– though we did have tv. You don’t want to know our family when we are cut off from all technology!
I definitely need to unplug for a bit. It helps right now that I don’t have a lot of internet access during the day, definitely making my vacation more enjoyable!

That is so cute! That design would make a really kick ass tshirt!
I need to unplug my tv as that’s all I’ve been doing for weeks! I’m going to be getting a lot more productive this next week on all sorts of things. Blogs, house work, working out… All the things I’ve been pushing to the side since getting absorbed into the tv.
Yeah! I was planning on screen printing it on everything lol. But I left the screen in Texas and only remembered to bring the design on paper. 🙁
