Feelin' Crafty

I've been working on a few projects.

All thanks to Pinterest, of course.

I hung my shelves up in the bedroom a few weekends ago

but had nothing to go on them.

I always see cute printables that I want on my walls.

The boyf bought me some ink and I got print happy.

But first I had to have frames.

I got these for $1 each at the Dollar Tree.

The dark ones are plastic and I wasn't sure how spray paint would work.

I even got the cheapest spray paint, it was under a dollar.

It took the hole can to do all 5 frames!

But Ta-Da!

I love it!

I feel like it's still missing something,

but my house is a work in progress.

I seen THIS the other day and knew I had to make it.

I keep all my fortures, just can't find them at the moment.

So, for now it looks bare.

But I think it will come together with time.

& luckily I already had the frame.

Now that it's all together, I realize I need to repaint the shelves.

Another weekend...



Great Finds!

I have some great products I would like to share with y'all!

Baby Lips Moisturizing Balm

I have the peppermint,

but there are other flavors.

It is so smooth and silky.

But not sticky.

& it's just a hint of peppermint.

It is pure love!

Kerastase Fibre Architecte

I asked for a heat protector for flat ironing

& this is what was recommended.

It was on sale for $32 and I only splurged

because I could bring it back in 7 days

if I didn't like it.

Didn't have to worry about that, it is amazing!

I was really unsure since it wasn't a spray

but I definitly recommend it to anyone

who straightens their hair often.

It makes my hair gorgeous

& is so easy to use!

Pssssst! Dry Shampoo

I try not to over-process my hair.

Which usually leads to a ponytail every other day.

I have oily hair. Yes, even after one day.

I'd heard people talk about dry shampoo,

but was really uncertain of it.

I looked everywhere and this was the

only brand I could find.

Turns out, it works fantastically!

I haven't tried it on hair dirtier than a day yet,

but I assume it would still work.

I def do need to find some in brown though

because when I go overboard it is white...

My Dear Watson - Scentsy

I've used Scentsy for quite a while now.

I always stick to the usual coconut

or clean scents because I don't have a consultant.

I buy from my cousin in Illinois...

Luckily, Heather has a consultant

that visited us at work so I got to smell all kinds.

I fell in love with My Dear Watson.

I hadn't placed the wonderful smell

until she told me, It smells like the Abercrombie store.

She is correct, it smells just like their cologne, Fierce.

I cannot wait to get it melting in my house. Mmm!

Finally, a Productive Weekend!

I stayed home this weekend.

Instead of going to the camp w/the boyf.

I had a list of things I wanted to get accomplished.

& figuring I would do more procrastinating than anything,

I'm pretty proud of what I got done.

 

 

I washed my comforter in one of those huge washers at the washateria.

I was sick of looking at the one the landlord had in here.

I hung the shelves in my living room.

Even though I have no idea wtf to put on them.

But hey, at least the wall's not bare anymore!

& I edited some photos to black & white

for my huge multi pic frame.

 

 

Cleaned out the top of my closet.

& put a lot of stuff in storage.

You know, like summer dresses that were taking up valuable space.

 

 

I organized my nightstand & dresser.

They had both gotten wayyy out of control.

I even threw lots of stuff I didn't need away.

Proud of myself for that

considering I've adopted the habit of putting everything in storage.

 

 

I also organized all my personal files

that had become a horrible stack.

It's nice knowing where everything I need is!

My personal recipe book also got organized.

Gotta start some cooking!

 

 

I pulled out all of my Valentine stuff

from my Scrapbook supplies.

I intend to make homemade Valentine's this year.

I need to take up Scrapbooking again w/all the junk I have. Geeze.

I LOVE apothecary jars.

Most of them have been sitting empty

on the top of my mircrowave.

But now, they are Valentine's day decor!

Don't mind the ugly flower pot.

I need a black one but apparently no one sells them in Janaury.

Or the ugly bookshelf, it was free w/the house.

Also, I have no idea why an outlet is so high on the wall. Ughhh
