@Tulips29 search Facebook for local lularoe sales people in your area guarantee you know someone who sells it

@Tulips29 - I've bought all of my Lularoe stuff through facebook from consultants many states away. One of my friends showed me her leggings & shirt she'd purchased & I fell in love. The fabric is very stretchy, so it wasn't difficult for me to estimate sizes without trying on.

Whoa, chiming in to also compliment @LeFemmeViolette on her handiwork! @wifeinraleigh28 Those socks are looking awesome too! Loved reading up on everyone's fun plans for the weekend! My weekend plans got rained out (was going to go to Six Flags with a couple friends, but postponed it for later this month), but it ended up being a nice and relaxing weekend, so can't complain

@LeFemmeViolette you are amazing!

How do their leggings run? Also, are they thick enough? I hate see-through ones. I'm seeing they have one size ones. I usually wear a size L, so wondering if those would fit me without stretching out too much.

Love the DIY projects. Wow. Impressed!

Joyzie77 · May 2016

@LeFemmeViolette Awesome work. Very impressive. I have a friend who does the same thing and I'm always amazed at what she pays for items and then the awesome end product. I always start projects but then they take me forever to finish.

Ok, checking out Lularoe now. I've never heard of it.

@vssbrm I loved Big Little Lies and pretty much everything else by Liane Moriarty! I haven't read a book in awhile though because I knit whenever I have free time now. I miss it though so I think it's about time to find another book to read.

I really enjoyed Big Little Lies, so I downloaded The Last Anniversary that she wrote. Going to start today.

@mmd1986 Also try The Husband's Secret! I preferred it to The Last Anniversary but they're all good.

The leggings are definitely thick enough and not see-through at all. Super soft and stretchy, so they should fit you just fine!

im jealous of all you ladies who have these hobbies. My only one is baking which is not helping my weird lol. I still can't shake this nauseous ugh

vssbrm · May 2016

@ultratomato baking is an awesome hobby! I love to bake! Thursday I am trying my hand at a gluten free filo dessert!! Yum!

Drove2u · May 2016

Baking takes talent too I think. I can cook but baking is a whole other realm for me.
On my way to Toronto now for work for the week. When I get back I go for my first ultrasound. Hoping the week goes by fast. I think it will. :-)

I love baking too, but I wish I could bake and eat without the weight gain that comes with it! lol
I made the best banana nut bread this weekend, though. It came out more like bread pudding/rum cake consistency than bread. Last night DH and I had some for dessert with a scoop of ice cream. He even said my mom would be proud (since she's an amazing baker and I could never compete with her skills). Here's a recipe I followed with minor adjustments, if anyone is interested: https://cookieandkate.com/2015/healthy-banana-bread-recipe/.
I used 3 large, very soft bananas and used only 1/3 cup of coconut flours (which is GF) instead of regular flour and added about a cup of chopped walnuts. Delish!

@Tulips29 I make banana nut bread all the time I add cinnamon to mine as well as nuts and dates. My dad and husband love it.

meli123k · May 2016

@Tulips29 Mmmm, that sounds yummy, I'm adding this to my recipe list!

I've gotten into decorating sugar cookies by watching YouTube videos.

Paw Patrol cookies for a friend's 2 & 4 year old boys.

Harry Potter cookies

St Patrick's Day

@Monica54321 Those are beautiful!!!

Tulips29 · May 2016

@dragonfaerie mmm yum! those look delicious!

@monica54321 those look great, awesome job!

Griffin5413 · May 2016

LeFemmeViolette - your stuff is amazing! I have been thinking about refinishing our dining room table
@Monica54321 - I love Lularoe! Their leggings are so comfy.

I'm definitely a crafter! A little of everything but then sometimes I get overwhelmed with too many projects. I started Quilting last year & completely finished a queen size quilt top but I just can't find time to hand quilt the rest and it would be too expensive to pay someone to do it (like $250). I'm working on a flag wall hanging. I also cross stitch or hand embroider & crochet. I just made my SIL a blanket for her new baby girl.

I'm thinking I want to make the bedding for my LO but not sure how much I want to take on. lol.

wifeinraleigh28 · May 2016

@Monica54321 I want me some Harry Potter cookies!!! Nice work!

ultratomato · May 2016

@Monica54321 you did an awesome job on those cookies u should start a business. @dragonfaerie I will try to make muffins like that

dragonfaerie · May 2016
