Scarf Week 2015: A Week of Killer Inspiration
We live in a crazy world. So, it can be a relief to know there are a few constants we can rely on.
After winter, must come spring.
What goes up must come down.
And when Shark Week comes back with a vengeance every summer, so does Scarf Week return! That’s right. Today at 10 a.m. eastern, we are kicking off the Second Annual Scarf Week here in blogland, and this time it really is bigger…better…scarfy-er.
That’s because I’m joined by not one, not two, but a whole gaggle of talented creators who will share their scarf-tastic creations with you, Monday through Friday this week.
So, you don’t have to waste your life away, glued to the TV watching shark attack footage all week. Instead, you can follow some pretty inspirational tutorials and D.I.Y. scarves of your own while you watch. Thumbs up for multi-tasking!
Truly, it’s going to be a killer week of inspiration, no fish-bones about it…and let me warn you now, the bad puns will run rampant yet again! But it’s just one week, so I’ve got to milk it for all it’s worth. {Sly grin.}
Home Base
This post will serve as “home base” post for the series, and it contains the clickable collages for each of the 5 days of Scarf Week all in one place.
So, pin it now! You’re not going to want to lose track of this one. Trust me!
And then, dive head first into some of the most creative DIY scarf tutorials you can imagine.

And remember, while it may be a bad week to be a seal, it’s a great week to be a scarf.
Stay scarfy,
I have another one is fabric that is preruffled. All you have to do is use it as is. Or you can double it. i have done both. love it.
Awesome! Thanks, Diane!
What an amazing scarf project resource. Incredible. Love the Scarf Week logo, too! So clever. Pinning!
Thanks, Mama! Shout-out to my co-coordinator Vanessa for the scarf-tastic logo. So cleva’!
Yes, it is so clever! By the way, dad brought down some old baseball t-shirts of yours and your sister’s from your childhood. Ready to donate to Salvation Army unless you can think of a sharky/clever way to use them.
