Wool Roving100% Cotton YarnNylon StockingKitchen StringRecipe: You need wood roving. You can find this from most craft and yarn stores. It looks like a big mass of wool straight from a sheep. Wool roving is what wool looks like before it's spun into yarn. For each ball, you'll need 3-4 ounces of roving (best to weigh it), and roll it into a tight ball. Wrap your ball tightly with 100% wool yarn. Place inside a stocking of cut off pair of hose (cheap knee high's from drug store work great). Tie off with kitchen string (not yarn). Toss in a hot machine wash cycle, then dry on high - this will "felt" the ball (it will shrink considerably). Remove the hose and sprinkle with 20 drops Lavender essential oil per ball. I recommend that you use about 5-6 balls per drying load to get maximum anti-static and fragrance effect.
Kimono with fringe: You can throw this on with a t-shirt and jeans. I love the tassel detail on the bottom and you can get this for $20. Coat: From H&M, this one will cost you a little more and will cost around $100. Shorter suede fringe jacket, vintage Fringe purse from Zara, $40. Fringe shoes from Minnetonka is the footwear brand most notable for fringe. Minnetonka 5 layer fringe boots retails for $99.95. (A great boot for under $100!) All of these boots are made from suede and come in a range of color options. All available at minnetonkamoccasin.com. Fringe necklace and earrings: And for those women who want something a little less fringe, you can accessorize with these beautiful pieces and even DIY them.

Items Needed: An old suitcase with a hard outer shell. Strong glue: super glue, crazy glue, wood glue, gorilla glue, or any glue that's really strong. 4 Wooden legs – approx. 4-6" tall and squatty looking works best for stability. Paint (optional to paint the legs before you put them on). Books or heavy objects to weight down the suitcase while the legs dry. You'll also want a pillow that will fit into the suitcase – which you can also make yourself (see fleece pillows). And some decorations that you or your cat will love. Instructions:
