If late February has you daydreaming about a change of scenery—whether to the slopes, the sand, or the city—we're right there with you. It's the same every year: that long stretch from January to March always gets us thinking about romantic destinations, ski trips, and even staycations. But every fashionista needs her gear, even if it's just for an overnight at the family mountain lodge. Wherever you're going to get away, pack up in green luggage—and keep your gems safe in this handmade jewelry roll from Instructables. You'll need two pieces of fabric&,dash;find scraps at the store or cut up an old shirt, sweater, or towel—and a handful of sewing notions (like a snap, two zippers for the pockets, and iron-on interfacing). Tie it all up with a ribbon or strip of fabric and you'll be ready to dress up no matter where your travels take you.
