photobooth fun.

since most of the blog world is kind of over the year of the mustache, in comes the new..

glasses, hats, bunny ears, indian feathers, ect.

i can't wait to make my own version of these free photobooth printables from oh happy day.

happy cinco de mayo!

i just love cinco de mayo.

usually i like to spend the day dressed in my mexican dress

and end the day eating tacos with some friends.

this year i don't have the time to do anything fun, and the office doesn't approve of mexican attire but next year i will just have to make up for it!

next year i will for sure be making these streamers.

tutorial on how to make them here.

christmas decor: better late than never?

as inspired by anthropologie:

this year anthropologie had little cedar slices decorated with trees on various tables throughout the store. my room is decorated much like the store, so they were a nice addition to my christmas decor this year.

what you need:

cedar wood slice (Hobby Lobby or ETSY)

miniature artificial christmas trees- various sizes (HL)

fake snow

optional:

small christmas candles

deer

other christmas trinkets

Just hot glue or place trees and snow on cedar slice.

Arrange any other trinkets as you wish.

On one table i used a holiday candle that I got from anthro.

my nightstand.

i also strategically placed pine cones around my room as a cheap way to add more festive appeal.

not just journals.

i decided to make these cute journals i saw here for a

few of my friends.

they were super easy to make, and a lot of fun.

i bought these journals from target.

most of the material came from Hobby Lobby.

here was the nearly finished product.

i sewed around the edges with colored thread, and

added buttons, birds and other knick-knacks

to give them a little character.

they were a hit!

craft project: one.

wood slices + decorate hooks = great wall decor

i was in athropologie the other day, and they had a display of wood slices. i left thinking how cute it would be to get some to decorate my walls with. i haven't made this project yet, but i will be posting pictures as soon as i do!

you can find the wood slices at Hobby Lobby, West Elm, or Ebay and i found these wall hooks at anthro.com!
