Flower Chandelier

I'm dreamily in love with this Flower Chandelier project. I need a party to throw or some other fabulous excuse to make one. Ummm... It's Tuesday! Perfect reason to buy fresh flowers and hang them from the ceiling.

Wrap it up

I love cute wrapping ideas!

And I feel like a sad little failure when my life goes rushrushrushrush and I wrap a cute gift in something that I already had around the house, in the car, on my way to the baby/bridal shower.... I mean... I've never... done... that. Shoot.

Anyhow, I have adopted a new life/wrapping philosophy that goes something like this: If you always have brown packing paper and washi tape on hand you will never have to find a way to wrap kitchen utensils in a plastic target bag again! And I was happy with this life philosophy.

AND THEN little miss Melanie of You Are My Fave has me completely rethinking this whole target plastic bags thing:

Her full tutorial on this rad little fused plastic bag envelope is here.

p.s. Have you also seen this idea bouncing around pinterest lately? You wrap a cook book in a kitchen towel for a bridal shower. I can think of 6 more variations of this idea that I can't wait to try.

Crayon Art

We used an 18x24 canvas and a box of 96 crayons to create new art for the baby's room. Just hot glue then blow dry. Thank for helping Husband! Hope I didn't burn your fingers too badly.

Cheap & Classy

Those are not two words that I usually use together, however, this will come in super handy for a bridal shower that I have to throw someday.

Dollar store mirrors and candlesticks to make a beautiful cupcake stand!

I've always wanted to do that...

You Can Go
