Spice Up Your Wardrobe

Do you ever open your closet, dig through your drawers, look though your accessories

and think, "wow, my wardrobe is just drab! I don't have anything to wear!"

(when really...your closet is packed full and your drawers are overflowing)

Don't go running out to buy more clothes, do something with the ones you have.

Spice up your wardrobe with these DIY ideas.

*****************

Use a bleach pen on a plain boring t-shirt.

Draw whatever you want!

Need some headbands? Cut up an old t-shirt and put your braiding skills to use!

Here is a tutorial on how to make 9 different fabric flowers.

Glue them to a pin, and you can put them on anything you want! Got some shirts that just don't fit quite right? They're a little big and baggy, so you just don't wear them and they just take up valuable space in your drawers. Use this tutorial to make those shirts wearable! Put your braiding skills to use once again and make these prettyful necklaces. This isn't a tutorial, but I just though that making button rings is such a good and cute idea!

Go for it! Be creative! Spice up that wardrobe of yours! Save money!

:D

In A Crafty Mood

So I have been in a crafty mood lately....and boy have I found some nifty crafts!

I have actually started making these. They are necklace pendants made out of scrabble and/or domino pieces. Really easy and they turn out really pretty!

I'm also doing these. It's pretty much just painted rocks. But hey, they're pretty!

You could put them on a shelf or desk, put them in a bowl (you know, like you do for soap),

or give them away as gifts. I thought this was a wonderful brilliant idea, especially if a room needs some brightening up.

Just blow up a pretty picture of a cloudy sky about the size of a window.

There ya go, it's like a window that is always sunny!

Oh how I would love to give this a try.

Go to Walmart and buy a plain white pair of slip on shoes,

then get ya some puffy paint and knock yourself out!

FUN!

Ok, so just how whimsical is this bottle? It just screams Alice in Wonderland.

Here are some cute card designs I might try sometime...

maybe I could do one for my dad's birthday coming up.

And who doesn't like them some cute pillows?

Birds on a line...aaawwww!!!

This would make such a cute wedding gift wouldn't it?

I don't necessarily want to make this but, I thought it was just so stinkin creative.

Ha, so what do you all think? Are you in "the mood" yet? Which one is your favorite?

What do you love to make?

The Perfect Party

What makes a perfect part? The theme? The decorations? The food?

I believe it's the people that make the party....

but those three things definitely help!

******************

Here are some pictures I found of some absolutely beautiful parties.

They are all so detailed and beautifully complicated.

What do you think of this world explorer theme? Ancient and wonderful!

This spring tea party would be so lovely to attend....I want to have one now. And who could say no to an ice cream social? huh? (unless your allergic to milk like me...) These are my colors right here. The go together so well and just make me happy inside. That wall hanging mosaic is so cool also! This inside tea party is just adorable, and it looks so easy to put together! I love the pillow idea! It just adds a splash of color to everything! And that bird cage hanging..... love! Wouldn't this cake go perfectly with the setting above? I absolutely love this cake, so creative! And the cookie birdies are sooooooo cute! Sunshine, lollipops, and rainbows. You pretty much got all three right here with these cakes. They would be pretty easy to decorate too...since you pretty much just stick a lollipop in it. Our Christmas bark has always been a big hit. But why not make party bark? huh? just add colorful sprinkles and viola!

This cake looks so deliciously sinful.

Chocolate and raspberries, two of my favorite things.

Colors galore! How cool is this? I would love to give this a try sometime!

I saw this cake and was like.....GASP!

(just like that)

How could you get more colorful and cute than this?

Not possible!

And last but not least, here is a link to the most beautiful and wonderful

party I've seen in a long time.

Enjoy day dreaming the rest of the day about your perfect party.

And who knows? Maybe you could use some of these ideas for a party of yours coming up!

Creative Urges

So today I had a creative urge to do something really unusual and.....creative. Yesterday a friend gave me an idea to try on Polyvore.com. Make something of nature....out of non-nature items. So, I gave it a try. It was way harder than I thought. But in the end....I like how it looked. :) You should try it sometime.

RC5 Creative Photoshoot

Last night we had a RC5 photoshoot. I thought they looked great before...but after Beth got done editing them... they looked soooo cool and creative! I love the cartoon look! Head over to our site to see some more that we took. They are on our photo page, and our profile page.
