Eye Candy - Home Decor

After living in our new apartment for 8 months, I have finally decided.....we need something on our walls!! Can you believe that we have no decor on our walls??? I love color and patterns but when you look at my living room and dining room, you cannot tell. I am the type of person that can recreate anything. If I find a picture frame I like but its $300, I can recreate it for way less than that. If I find pillows that I like, but they are way out of my budget, I'm going to recreate it!

I was searching on flickr for some ideas. Look what I found!









Pretty pictures!! Once I start feeling better, I am going to get started on a home decor project! I need some more color in my life!

DIY - Glam Girl Party Theme

My niece is such a glam girl! (I like to think I'm rubbing off on her, lol!) My sister lives next door and we all see each other everyday! I love it! Her daughter's 6th birthday was coming up so my sister and I were trying to come up with ideas. I am very crafty and creative & my sister was willing to do whatever just as long as it looked good. So the creativness began...

My niece loves being girly, so we decided to have a "Glam Girl Party."

First I made her a pink tutu, dolled her up, took pictures, and made her invites. Here is a picture of her invite & a couple from her party.





Her whole party was DIY. We made the banner (& the tissue flower on the top right of the banner), cupcake stands, THE CUPCAKES (Yummmmy!), cupcake decor, birthday picture frame, pictures on the goody bags, "6" flowers art work (behind the cupcakes) and much more! You can't see other things, but we made 3 different kind of sandwiches, rice crispies, and custom picture frames (inside the goody bags). We received compliments the whole time, which made all the hard work worth it!
