Hoop Earring Necklace DIY (Inspired by Libby Story)


This may be the easiest DIY I will ever post.
The necklace I am wearing around my sun burnt neck (thanks, Michigan's Adventure) is actually made of old hoop earrings.

Things to Make with Books ~ Pinterest

This morning, I was running around and needed to quickly wrap a gift.  The first thing to pop in my head was to use the pages from an old book.  What can't you do with book pages?

Good{will outlet} Friday #20 ~ Inspired by Spanish Moss

This week's outfit is inspired by Ms. Frizzle from the Magic School Bus.  No, just kidding.  But I have DO a feeling that if she was a real person, she would love this space-y dress as much as I do.

Galaxy Dress (DIY)

Today I had the absolute best idea EVER.  While at Toys R Us this morning, I was browsing the science isle (my favorite toys) and my mind wandered to this adorable galaxy dress I found online last week.

Keyhole Alice Postcards (DIY)

This weekend I went to the Michigan Postcrossing Meet Up at the Amway Grand Hotel here in Grand Rapids.  This is my second meet up, and its really fun to chat with other people that love mail and collecting postcards.  Members came from different parts of Michigan and Illinois.

Okay, so I know I've already posted another headband tutorial earlier in the week, but I've been thinking about them a lot lately.

Button Headband (DIY)

Last weekend I spent an afternoon by the pool with two of my very favorite girls.  We worked together several years ago at a YMCA day camp program and it was one of the most interesting jobs I've ever had.  Everyday, at least one crazy, unexpected thing happened.  Every time I get together with these girls is an adventure: from summer camp to 80's prom to the time I knocked Liz's tooth out with my elbow at a concert (I still feel pretty horrible about that one).

Make a Wish with Geoffrey the Giraffe


Working as a freelance artist doesn't quite pay the bills yet, so I dabble in a few other money making ventures.
