Hi friends! YAYYYYY it's finally Friday!!! Is it just me or do the weeks seem to be dragging by this summer? Maybe it's because I'm stuck working and studying for my online classes when I'd much rather be laying out at the beach or by a pool, sunning myself with an extra large mojito in hand... Either way, I always LIVE for the weekends when I get to sleep in and stay up late eating pizza and watching movies after a day filled with summer relaxation. This weekend, I'm going to visit Jordan and ...
5 Products For Your Perfect Summer Skin
I LOVE my dear state of Texas, but it’s no secret that summer in SETX is HOT. The sun is always beating down (ya know, except for when the occasional thunderstorm rolls through for approx. 30 minutes without any warning or cloud in the sky, before leaving just as quickly as it came), so it’s important to choose the right skincare products in order to cope with the summertime heat. I personally like to choose products, especially in the summer, that are light on my skin and don’t make me feel ...
How to Make a DIY String Art Gift
Hello friends! So let me begin by saying that I am not the most experienced with DIY projects. Before this, I had made probably a total of 2 DIY projects, one of which simply being spray-painting an old bedside table I found in my garage (yes, that was it… I cleaned, then spray-painted it.) So when I found myself in need of a Christmas gift for my boyfriend, a die-hard Dallas Cowboys fan, I decided that a Cowboys string art in the shape of our beloved state of Texas would be the perfect ...
Lord of the Rings: Two Towers Ent-Draught Recipe
"The drink was like water, indeed very like the taste of the draughts they had drunk from the Entwash near the borders of the forest..." So my boyfriend (the obvious LOTR fanatic here) actually found this recipe one day when he was looking up unique, fun drinks we could make one night when some friends were coming over. It turned out to be REALLY good and quickly became a staple for us! Not to mention it is SUPER easy to make! Just 4 ingredients and that's IT! Not to mention, the fruity, ...
2-Ingredient Hair Mask to Tame Frizz
Hi friends! Ugh this summer heat is in FULL SWING and with the daily 90% humidity, it feels like I’m living underwater. By the end of my 10 hour workday, I feel like my hair goes from bouncy curls to frizzified lion’s mane. If I ever decide to actually go out after work instead of resuming my nightly position as a Netflix-obsessed couch potato, I have to completely redo my hair so that it looks presentable and like something you would normally find atop the head of a woman. I started doing ...
How to Make a Blanket Ladder for Only $20!!
Hi lovelies! For those of you who don’t know, I moved to Houston in March of 2018 to start a new job, which means I got my own apartment to DECORATE!!! Little side note about me: I am OBSESSED with decorating and looking at different home styles. HGTV is almost always on in my apartment (seriously, I even leave it on during the day for my cat to watch). That being said, I’m sure if any of you have ever decorated a living space, you know it can get very expensive very quickly. That was when I ...
