I did my nails before the weekend too!

Iowa/ISU bracelets

It is that time of the year for college football, so I decided to make some Iowa Hawkeye/ISU bracelets. I'm going to try and sell some at the market! I haven't made bracelets like this since high school. 

I just pop on the TV and go to town.

This weekend I helped my boyfriend's mom with her garage sale. It was a lot of fun, she even let me take home whatever I wanted. FREE CLOTHES! It was such a nice day out, and by that, I mean it wasn't hot. I am so over summer. I knew it was going to be the only day I put make up on. Pay no attention to the weird pose. 

ps. my boyfriend hates those shoes. womp womp

I also made some more nest necklaces. 

They are a big hit at the farmers market!

red shirt & jeans

Good morning! I had a plan to wake up and get into fierce clean mode. I should never had turned on Hulu. America's Next Top Model has a college cycle... YES!

Anyways, this is what I wore last night. Pay no attention to the light switch.

 

Sorry, I have no idea why it is so blurry. I'm doing this on the laptop, there must be a size issue.

• The red top is Mossimo brand, from Target. I bought from Goodwill
• bracelet is from Urban Outfitters
• my necklace Urban Outfitters?
• Gray jeans from Heritage
• ring was a gift
• shoes from younkers

And now we watch Season 2 of Grimm. I'm lazy...

bracelet holder

Also, this weekend I put together a bracelet holder that I desperately needed. I'm not one to buy bracelets. Mostly because I don't have anywhere to put them. We are pretty tight for space in our apartment.

It was very easy to make and took about 10 minutes.

I used the only wrapping paper I had. Paper towel cardboard, a cd thingy? tape, scissors, and glue.

This part took the longest. 

Then a quick glue job!

TA DA!

black skull shirt

This weekend I finally got to wear my diy cut out skull shirt!

This is the shot of my full outfit.

I cut an old shirt of mine. I need to make a stencil or something to make it easier and cleaner.

Any ideas?

Vacation in Kansas City, MO

Good Morning! Getting back into the work routine has been rough. Which means a lot of coffee. My boyfriend and I went on a 4 night vacation to Kansas City. We did it last year and are making it a yearly tradition. Even though we would like to go more often. It's 3 hours away from us, but we keep ourselves entertained. Never a dull moment in our lives.

the view from my window.

Kansas City. and this thing is pretty neat.

The buildings close to where we stay are beautiful

We shopped until we dropped

The best part about our trips are H&M and Urban Outfitters. There are some things from Charlotte Russe too!

I realized I kind of have a thing for fountains.

Being in Kansas City, we HAD to go to Power and Lights for some drinks! We met up with friends and had a great time.

Our last day in Kansas City was a little gloomy. Iowa straight ahead was nice and sunny! Good thing to come home to.

Tonight, we go to the Iowa State Fair!

colored ombre necklace

Before

After

I was a bridesmaid in a friends wedding recently and this was the necklace we wore as bridesmaids. The necklace looked amazing with our dresses and matching earring. It was a gift from the bride and I would love to keep wearing it. So, I gave it color to make it more casual. I hope she likes it 

;)

Let me just start by me venting about how exhausted I am. I had a very productive/fun weekend, but I did not get enough sleep in the process. Friday was too much fun. I went out for margaritas with a couple girlfriends. We started at 5pm. DO NOT DO THIS! I love these girls, even though one of them is running away from us to another state. WAH!

We also saw fireworks from the minor league baseball field that is close by. I have a love/hate relationship with fireworks. They are pretty to look at, but I don't like the loud booms. I believe Kasey said "you squirmed like a little girl" 

Yes, I did wear this downtown Des Moines and yes I am posing that a real cowgirl. Success!

Saturday was party day again, sadly I did not participate. 

After the graduation party I had to make a run to Hobby Lobby and Walmart. I almost fell asleep in the jewelry section. I did get everything I needed, this usually doesn't happen.

This is what my Saturday night looked like.

 Full of making things and cake in a cup 

Sunday was another fabulous/tired day. I got to hang out with my nephews all day. They were very good boys, but they can wear me out quickly. 

I did get started on my tote designs and finished some necklaces Sunday night.

I'm even more tired writing all this. I'm going to go home and going straight to bed. I'll leave you with this. BONUS! My mother sent me this picture, the fern I got her looks pretty next to her flowers.
