BRIGHTEN UP - FIVE UNIQUE & COLORFUL DIYS

Friday, May 18, 2012



DIY GEOMETRIC SCULPTURE
Gather your friends together for crafting and drinks. This project is amazing, but quite an undertaking.  I really appreciate that they created a video with step by step instructions - which is perfect for someone who is as impatient and terrible at directions as me! You can find the tutorial HERE.



NEPALI HANGING DECORATIONS
So, I'm completely in love with OhHappyDay. How I've managed to live my life up until now without this amazing blog is beyond me. Do yourself a favor and check out a few of her other delightful creations (and also - Fruit Balloons) that are guaranteed to bring a smile to your face. These adorable NEPALI HANGING DECORATIONS are no exception. How much fun would these be at your next party? 



HANDMADE BIRD-MOBILE
How stinkin' cute is this? Mobiles aren't just for children any more. Hell, I'd totally hang one of these  above my bed. The birds consist of two pieces of fabric that you hand sew together, which is incredibly easy. You can find more about this project HERE and the pattern HERE



POM POM ANIMAL PIN CUSHION
For the seamstress in your life! This idea is so fun. I mean honestly, look at it.  My sewing machine has been pleading with me up in the attic for attention. I feel like this is just another sign from the sewing gods that I need to get it back down.  You can find the tutorial for this brilliant bit of pom pom goodness HERE



DIY FRUIT BALLOONS
A fruit party! What a good idea! Brilliant craft goddess Brittany Watson Jepsen of The House That Lars Built created this whimsical little decoration for OhHappyDay and what a happy day it will be if you have these in your home! 


SPRING'S HOTTEST NAIL TRENDS

Thursday, May 3, 2012

These are my favorite nail art trends for the coming summer months. Enjoy!

NEON GEOMETRY + PASTEL PINK LINES via Pshiiit.com




I'm still in my 'I love anything geometric' stage. In addition to my 'I love anything neon' stage. 

Both of these beautiful tutorials can be found on Pshiiit.com.



ROUND IT OUT: A COLORFUL TWIST ON A CLASSIC STYLE




More elegant variations on this beautiful, classic style:





I love the rounded tips! My mother always filed her nails in the most lovely rounded shape. I always had high hopes I'd one day master the art.


THE BOW TIE // GOLD LEAF MANICURE 





Both of these creative and captivating nail tutorials can be found on
The Beauty Department, one of my favorite places for  inspirational nail artistry. 

I wasn't able to find the exact link for The Bow Tie Mani, because attribution sometimes gets eaten by the internet. Sorry! 


And a little more nail lust for good measure:


Oh how I wish I hadn't of found this on Tumblr. I'm incredibly in love with this picture and have absolutely no idea where it came from.
