SO. The other day I got real excited about moving into my new place in a couple short weeks and made some things on my pinterest account that I knew would never happen once the ball got rolling on the whole job thing.
Here's what I made...
numero uno//
My aunt bought me these amazing bamboo spoons and I painted the ends of them because that's my extent of crafty. The jar is from World Market. Bam. Project one: finished.
numero dos//
Do you ever make something that's not expected to reach any sort of expectation and then you're like "holy cazolli I actually really like this." ? Yeah, that's what happened. I bought a plain wooden frame and painted it. In the middle is a...what do you call those? Ya know like a coffee bag material that I cut out and hot glued to the back. {I know, real complicated and classy..} Anyway, so that's my earring holder. And I'm actually really proud of it so if you don't like it, don't hate.
Since this ain't no DIY blog, I probably won't put up any step by step directions on these things...and because, well, that's just totally unnecessary for these simpler than simpler crafts of mine. But if you want any details I'll be happy to respond to an email or two.
{Like that use of the word ain't? Yeah me either. I promise not to do that ever again.}
Check you lovelies later.

Both of these projects are amazing. I've been wanting to do something similar with our bamboo spoons, but I have a hubby that shakes his head no at such notions. Your sister is right do all those fun things now!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Good for you! I've been thinking about that lately too, about trying to live up to the best potential I have. I mean, life is short, we should do our best right?
ReplyDeleteDid you change the design of your blog? Because I love it! Super cute. And I fell in love with those colored handled utensils too! SO cute!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the bamboo sticks and the jar you chose to put them in! So cute! :) Perfect way to add a touch of color to the kitchen!
