I'm aware Valentines day is a month away but I just cant help & get a head start. Especially when I figured out a way to incorporate this save the date card that I've been eying. The timing couldn't have been more perfect. This would even be perfect as an anniversary card! Anything romantic really.

Supplies

1. My PDF printable 

2. Scissors 

3. 9 inches of twine 

4. Exacto or cutting tool

5. Glue stick

5. 15 minutes of your time

Step one: After cutting out the PDF and carefully folding it in half, make a hole through the two sheets using your cutting tool. After doing so glue the two sheets together.

Step two: Place the twine through and make a knot. 

Step three: Before doing the same to the other side, make a loose knot in the middle of the card.

Make sure when you give your card to your valentine that the knot in the middle is loose. That way when they open it up it will form the knot. Click on the download bar below to make your own!

I've never really cared for those tiny silver balloon sticks that you buy at the market. Its probably because I like the way plastic balloons look. So I thought I would do a mixture of those balloons topped off with some ribbon. While shopping for balloons I ran into these fun smiley faced ones that I imagined would work perfectly for a birthday or to simply cheer someone up. So I grabbed a pack and got to work. Im warning you right now, this not the last time you'll be seeing these. My mind is overflowing with ideas on the different combinations that can be done.

Supplies

#1. Balloon

#2. Dowel 

#3. Two to three ribbons to mix and max

#4. Fifteen minutes of your time

Step one: Blow your balloon & knot it up!

Step two: Pick your ribbon! I stuck with a two color combo and made them long enough so that I could make a knot with the middle, rather than the ends.

Step three: In order to gain control of my balloon, I decided to tape it to the dowel. Don't worry it'll be covered once you add the ribbon around it.

Step four: Tie the ribbon tight so that the balloon stand up nice & tall. I absolutely loved the way it looked once it was done, it was fun and definitely a quick surprise to give to a friend. 

Cheers!

Hello all & Happy new year! Sorry for my absence this week, I was in the beautiful San Francisco helping my best friend move. Some of you already knew that, via instagram. Any who I hope all of your festivities were fantastic! As for me its time to start the year off productively. I decided to try something new this year. I have no idea why but every year when I start a new planner I quit half way, seriously it never fails. This year to avoid that, I'm going to print out a months worth of my weekly planner pages. Im hoping it will motivate me to accomplish more of my bucketlist items. Last year I started a five year bucketlist & have accomplished 7 of 30. Nothing crazy, but its something. I figured if I gave myself a reasonable time frame I would get more done and be motivated, rather than making it a list before I die. Below is a download to my pdf that I hope you will all enjoy! & down lower is a list of my completed goals as well as those I hope to knock out!

I absolutely love gold leaf. It turns anything and everything fancy & shiny! But lately I've been curious to use it on my nails. Turns out it is one of the easiest manicure's I have encountered. Add this to your lazy lady's guide of fast & fancy manicures because those gold sheets will last you forever. The best part is all the color combinations you could do. For New Year's sake I did Black & Gold but I will def. try some rose gold!

Supplies

#1. Gold leaf. 

You could purchase this from any craft store or online.

#2. Black nail polish

#3. Top coat

#4. 30 mins of your time

Step one: Paint your nails black, or any color that will let the gold pop!

Step two: Now is the time to add the gold leaf. Make sure your nails are dry, but in that stage where its still kind of sticky. I recommend lightly touching your pinky nail for this. Then dab the sheet over your nail. Do this until you get the desired pattern.

Step three: Add top coat & your done!

Cheers!
