Most Random Post Ever

You may have noticed my blogs "face lift" haha! I don't know what I would do without the color pink and hearts. My husband, Jordan, tells everyone that if they want to get me a gift, "just get her something pink or something with hearts!" At first I didn't want him telling people that because what if I wanted something else?? Then I realized... everything I want is pink...or has hearts...or both!

Anyways...Ever since I graduated (2 weeks ago) my crafty/artsy side has been UNLEASHED and this is what happened.
I made this cute cute cute mini-mouse pinata for my co-worker's 3 year-old's birthday party. I just cut out the shape of mini's head twice by tracing a clock and two medium paper plates and then taped them together with a strip of cardboard in-between. Which was followed by a few hours of gluing tissue paper to her... the bow is also tissue paper. I don't think my kids will ever have a home-made pinata as cute as this because I probably wont have time to do this again haha! They beat her up yesterday..... *cue sad music*
This really has nothing to do with my craftyness... but Jordan was on TV again for like the 3rd time since I have been married to him. KSL did a little bit on Rocky Mountain Flyboard and how AWESOME it is and Jordan was probably trying to get in every shot :)
I THRIFTED!!! I went on my first true thrifting adventure at the DI. I didn't know exactly what I was looking for... but when I saw the silver tray I just KNEW it was perfect. See, my bathroom lighting situation is "hideous" and something needed to be done. First of all the lights are florescent *chocking* and second of all the fan is wired to the light! so when the light is on...so is the fan! This quickly makes a relaxing bath session very not relaxing. So I bought the silver tray for $2 and the candles were between .25 and .75 cents.

Aslo I found this little frog.... I couldn't part.


And I found this pot for a $1!! So I went and bought some succulents. These plants are die-proof.
I gave this to my friend Ron for his birthday because he enjoys plants but he kills them because he works so much. Also I think it will look amazing in his house.
Aaaaaand I sewed this skirt!! I will hopefully be posting a "How To" soon on making it!
