Sorry I Suck

Hey guys, sorry I have been so bad at posting, but I wanted to pop in and say Happy Holidays since they are right around the corner. In fact, my birthday is this Sunday, wooooo! I've been screen printing some Christmas cards lately, this one is my favorite.

DIY or DIE

I love how painted mason jars look. This would be really pretty to do for candles.

diy3
Speaking of candles, check out these lemon candles! Here is a tutorial!

diy1
This Italian soda bar would be so fun to do for a birthday party!

diy2
This pumpkin soap sounds amazing! I love warm pumpkin scents. Also, 10 minutes to make? Dream come true!

I always have to include a post from A Beautiful Mess. This bracelet diy would be so cute to make for friends as friendship bracelets!

Stuff I Luff #89

stuff1
This cat ear hat is seriously the cutest. I love the colors in this one.

stuff3
This Twin Peaks banner is awesome. I just started watching the show and I am already in love only two episodes in.

stuff5
Something about this solar system headband makes me love it. I think it is because it reminds me of Mrs. Frizzle from Magic School Bus.
stuff2
I loooove hand lettering and Kristen Drozdowski inspires me daily, so naturally I fell in love with these custom address stamps.

stuff4
There is something creepishly awesome about this hand collar. I love how delicate it looks, you may not even realize they are hands at first glance.

Review: Uncommon Goods

Uncommon Goods is a shopping website where you can find gifts for those -hard to buy for- people....including yourself! They have a range of interesting products that you most likely would not see at your local shopping center. Uncommon Goods asked me to review some of their products and I happily and excitedly accepted. One product I picked to review is the Breakfast for Your Face Face Mask
fm1
This mask comes with 3 dry powder formulas. Each of them feel weird yet amazing. They have instructions on them for you to decide what wet material you would like to use to thicken your mask, I used water for each of mine. I like to use these masks in the morning instead of washing my face. 

fm3
Cafe Mocha Mask
This mask smells soooo good. It is almost like a scrub as well as a mask. My face did start feeling sort of itchy while it was on, but it wasn't unbearable.

fm2
Yogurt Massk
This mask was really nice. I tend to have weird combination skin, but it has been really dry lately. This mask is formulated to moisturize the skin.

fm6
fm4
fm5
Oatbrasion Mask
I mixed honey with this mask because my skin has been suuuuper dry due to the windy cold days we have had lately. I think this mask is my favorite. It is sort of messy with the oatmeal falling off here and there, but it is worth it. I use the extra on my dry hands as well.

I would definitely recommend this face mask kit as a gift for a friend or even as a gift for yourself!

Thanks again, Uncommon Goods!

Stuff I Luff #88

The floral head pieces in this shop are all so lovely.

stuff3
Can you even imagine your hair smelling like Pistachio Macaroon, ohhhh myyy goddd. Not to mention the fact that it does more than just smells good. Sometimes my hair really needs an extra lift, or some texture to it.

stuff1
I need a new bobble hat really badly. This one looks like it would keep your head so cozy.


stuff4
What's not to love about this dress. I mean, come on, cats and a peter pan collar!

Outfit: Wild Thing

redtights1
Right now I am relishing the idea of wandering around a health food store, like Derek and I did just last week. I have been super busy, stressed, and sick since then. I cannot wait for the holiday breaks coming up.

I am so in love with the jewelry Wild Thing Studio sent me. They are so delicate and dainty. I know I will be featuring them in many outfit posts to come. Each piece is made with care and thought. I am really so happy and grateful that they sent me these pieces to review.

I finally hunted down a pair of Sophie oxfords in my size! This is the color I had been wanting ever since my sister got a pair like 3 or 4 years ago. Thank you, Poshmark!

What's Inside: September Glam Bag

I realize I am waaaaay late on posting this. I still haven't received my October Glam bag! I have been waiting and waiting. I spoiled my last one by accidentally looking at what I got on the website. WHY DO THEY POST THAT?!
ipsy
Details:
+Harvey Prince Hello Perfume
+Pacifica Waterproof Eyeliner
+Briogeo Don't Despair Repair Hair Mask
+Be a Bombshell Smooth Criminal Powder
+Cailyn Art Touch Tinted Lipgloss

ipsy2
This is my favorite from this month's bag. This deep conditioning mask makes my hair feel so soft and it smells amazing! Plus, the packaging is so cute and I am a sucker for nice packaging.

ipsy3
I also really love this perfume. This is one of those scents where you try to smell it in the bottle and it just smells like rubbing alcohol....but then you put it on your skin and it smells floral and pretty!

What did you get in your Ipsy Glam Bag?

Field Trip: Printing Press

In my graphic design class, we went to a printing press in a nearby city to learn about how printing was done back in the day. It was super interesting and there were so many things to look at. I snapped a few photos to share.
Wolverine Press
We each got to print our own version of that yellow poster/flyer there. It was really hard to turn the wheel because there was so much pressure.

Wolverine Press
Aren't these stamps so cool? There were things like this lying around everywhere.

Wolverine Press
This is the machine we printed the poster on. All the equipment looked so cool.

Have you ever been to a printing press studio?
