Happy Memorial Day Weekend!

Ahh three day weekend! Well sort of...I have dance competition tomorrow for one of my studios, but it's a free weekend none the less. So what am I going to spend my weekend doing? Crafts of course, possibly a little bit of Zelda playing and Star Trek marathons too...

So figured I would give you my fave five simple DIYs I found via Pinterest recently, so if you find yourself with some down time, you can give one of these a try. Now I haven't tried any of these yet, so let me know how they go!

FIVE. Beach Towel to Tote



Get ready for some sun, although it takes awhile, this is still pretty simple. Go here.

 

FOUR. Flat Iron Case



This is the easiest project ever!

An unexpected break

I had not intended to take two weeks off from this blog and although I have not posted I have been busy at work. Outside of the arguments with my parents over painting my desk, which I graciously eventually agreed not to do. Competition season is arriving at both the dance studios I work at and recital costumes are going home soon...so I had some hats to finish customizing, costumes to take in and fix, and start to figure out my own costumes. If I wasn't  busy enough, Easter arrived in a house cleaning frenzy that left me craving my bed when I wasn't working, rehearsing, making costumes or cleaning.

Which takes us up to the week that has just passed. The beginning of the week began with a slight sickness which had me enjoying laying in bed, got to watch some Star Trek movies though. And of course the main reason for my absence this week, I had a hip hop dance competition with the crew I dance with in Boston. I spent most of the week rehearsing and finding costume pieces. I did manage to take a trip to Savers and have a wonderful DIY coming your way soon! If the weather hadn't been so yucky I could have done it earlier, but c'est la vie.  Luckily, its school vacation this week and thus a week off for me.

So what can you expect in the next week...? Here's the list!

DIY Ombre chair attempt
DIY earrings
Customising a desk without painting...
Customising a hat for costume party or Halloween
And some other goodies, you'll have to come back and see!
