Blog Title: "From Threads to Treasures: My DIY Journey, One Craft at a Time"
The Start of Something Fun If you’ve ever had a random pile of old clothes or a pair of shoes that just needed something extra, then you’ve probably been down the DIY rabbit hole. My journey started just like that—no grand plans, no Pinterest boards, just me, some scissors, and a lot of imagination. What began as a hobby to pass the time quickly turned into a way to have fun, create something cool, and give new life to the things I already owned.
The First Creation: Turning Old Clothes Into Something New
It all started when I was younger. I was sitting in my room, staring at an old t-shirt that was gathering dust in the back of my closet. I thought, “Why not turn it into something fun?” With no experience, I grabbed some scissors and cut away, transforming the shirt into a trendy crop top. It wasn’t perfect, but that didn’t matter. The excitement of creating something new from something old was electric. And that was the moment DIY became more than just a random activity—it was my new thing.
Discovering DIY Jewelry: Personal Pieces with a Story
Fast forward a bit, and I found myself diving into the world of DIY jewelry. At first, I made a simple bracelet out of beads—nothing fancy, just a little something to pass the time. But as I played around with colors and patterns, I realized how much fun it was to create personalized pieces that had a little piece of me in them. I didn’t just stop at bracelets; soon I was making earrings, necklaces, and even rings, all with a little extra flair. My friends loved the creations and started asking for their own custom pieces. It was like I had stumbled upon a whole new way to express myself, and the best part? No two pieces were ever the same.
Making Memories: DIY Photo Frames with a Personal Touch
Then came photo frames. As someone who loved capturing memories, I quickly realized that no store-bought frame ever seemed to fit the personality of my photos. So, I took matters into my own hands. Literally. I grabbed some plain wooden frames and transformed them into little works of art. I painted them in pastel colors, added buttons, lace, ribbons—anything I could find that felt right. Suddenly, my memories were displayed in frames that weren’t just frames, but unique creations that told a story of their own. Each one was like a mini scrapbook for my photos.
Stepping Into Style: Customizing Shoes and Adding Flair
The next stop on my DIY journey? Shoes. One day, I discovered a pair of old white sneakers tucked away in my closet. They were just sitting there, looking sad and boring. So, I decided to give them a makeover. I pulled out some fabric paints and markers, and before I knew it, those sneakers were covered in colorful designs and patterns. The best part? I loved them even more than when I bought them. What started as a simple attempt to salvage old shoes turned into a full-blown shoe customizing obsession. Every time I created a new design, I felt like I was wearing a piece of art.
Giving from the Heart: DIY Gifts That Mean More
DIY wasn’t just about creating for myself—it quickly turned into a way to make thoughtful, personalized gifts for friends and family. Birthdays, holidays, and random occasions became the perfect excuse to handcraft something special. I painted mugs, made custom jewelry boxes, and even created scarves. Every project felt like a little labor of love, and seeing the smiles on people’s faces when they received something I’d made with my own hands was the best part.
The DIY Adventure Continues
And now, years later, my DIY journey is still going strong. Whether I’m reworking an old piece of clothing or creating a new gift for someone special, DIY has become my go-to for adding a personal touch to everyday life. It’s not about being perfect or following the rules—it’s about having fun, experimenting, and seeing where the creative process takes you. Plus, it’s a great way to express yourself without spending a ton of money.
What’s Next? The Endless Possibilities of DIY
What’s next for my DIY journey? Who knows! But that’s the beauty of it. DIY is all about trying new things, making mistakes, and most importantly, having fun along the way. So, grab those scissors, those beads, or that old t-shirt—you never know what treasures you’ll create next!

Pt. 1 Longtime Matt and Eugene fan. I’m the one who brought up the thigh-holding video and Lex Duff article. No tumblr, just avoiding my Grad school work. I think you shouldn’t waste any more of your time on whoever it is arguing about Matt. Either they are messing with you or are in such DEEP denial that you will never convince them. After that adorable pic with them feeding the kangaroo and duck, not to mention the fact that he’s brought Matt to the HRC dinner twice now,
Pt. 2 why would he bring a “friend” if he has a boyfriend and talks about falling in love with him at the dinner? Obviously, the boyfriend was present and they both posted stories from the dinner. I doubt they would believe it if Eugene flat out said, I’ve been with Matt for 7 years (the earliest pics I’ve found were from March 2013). They would probably think that he’s just joking around because you’re right, they don’t WANT to believe it. Again, either way, this person is not worth your time.
Pt. 3 Sorry for going off. I’m sure you’ve had a lot of people commenting on this. It just gets to me when people try to erase the other people in someone else’s life just because they are jealous or don’t want them there. I’m sure Eugene would be pissed to see how some people are treating Matt, including people commenting on Instagram that Matt better treat him right. Eugene’s a big boy, he can handle himself and Matt seems like such a gentle soul that I hardly doubt he’d treat anyone poorly.
________________________________________________________________ I mean I’m all for falling in love with your friends in a platonic way but cmon. Lol.  I thought they were messing with me but I have legitimately received about 16 messages and 7 submissions of ‘proof’ that they aren’t dating. now that proof is literally just photos from David Dangs Instagram aka Matts best friend and a publicly close friend of Eugene's and clearly closer privately.  They actually seem convinced so idkkk what to do but I’m not going to reply to them anymore because I honestly can’t be bothered. I was procrastinating yesterday and I figured what the hell, let's engage with the crazies. Lol.
Yeah, the general consensus for us who knew is around 7years... I’ve seen the people that are new on this bandwagon say that Matt worked at Buzzfeed which I’m fairly comfortable in saying that that is false. Hes in... what? 2 videos? Both with the man that was possibly his boyfriend at the time already? One which he is flirting with Eugene and the other is a boyfriend video where other boyfriends are played by other friends of Eugenes who don’t work at Buzzfeed... 
I’m the fan who was always curious and who looked closely at their insta stories and noticed how they’d not pan the camera to the one clearly sitting next to Eugene, (for instance, the football tricks video, the video with his Dad at a drag show, and the 2nd Try dinner they had a while back, Eugene's story literally had him whip around so quick that he didnt let the camera fall on Matt (who was clearly sitting next to him again)... Now their privacy is important and me creeping on a public thing isn't harmful, I didn’t even start following his new public insta until Eugene posted the photo because I didn't want to be creepy Lol. And before they went public all discussions of their beauty went on in private messages. Eugene made a decision to go public, it started with the book, then the tour, then Instagram, Ned's facebook, the trypod and now videos. I’m going to assume they at least address the fact they are a couple in the barista video or that they are paired up in it so if people still deny it I’m just going to laugh in their faces.    
I won’t even go into the proof that they are obviously living together... I mean we knew spoilers for the Car video because there was clips of Matt driving his car post-makeover. (Also I mean, it makes it more clear why he wasn't in TryDIY, not only because Secret Boyfriend, but also Matt put ‘design’ in his insta bio, their apartment is probably as gorgeous as they are.) 
ALSO THEY SHARE CLOTHES.  PRACTICALLY ALL THE TIME.
Before the NZ trip became the McYang trip, my squeeing was about the multiple stories that Maggie posted which glimpsed Matt (which they are normally careful about, I mean Maggie had to purge her insta of him when they went public so that was another step in the reveal) where Matt was wearing iconic Eugene outfits and then in the next official photos we got they had done switched again with more clothes. its so cute. 
(especially since Ariel was annoyed at all the Fulmer bags whereas Matt and Eugene just share clothes when needed. RELATIONSHIP GOALS!) 
I forgot the point of this response and I’m sorry Lol. Feel free to always come squeal at me about McYang though. And good luck with your studies!
