{ DIY } Home Decor

I like adding accents like ribbon to make basic decoration items stand out more. My mom gave me these beautiful glass hurricanes but I felt they needed a little something to help them tie in with my bookshelf decoration. 

I bought some little white accent rocks from the Dollar Tree (and I'm getting another bag next time I go so I can add more!). They are adorable, a little sparkly and ONLY a $1!! Can't beat that. I added them to the bottom and then used my favorite striped ribbon from the Recollections line at Michael's. 

All you need is some scissors and a glue gun. I cut the ribbon into strips that fit around the top of the hurricanes, with a little extra overlapping to put the glue. I wrapped them around, glued the ribbon, and voila! A little added character to an otherwise basic piece of decoration. And the best part is the ribbon is easily removed or changed for a different look.

Super easy & inexpensive! My favorite kind of DIY project.

2. Simply Organic Turmeric -- 2.38 oz.

Great for cooking and it has excellent health benefits as well.

3. Chocolove Dark Chocolate Bar Almonds & Sea Salt

6. Aura Cacia 100% Pure Essential Oil Lavender -- 0.5 fl oz.

This is great on it's own or added to a body lotion. It has a nice subtle scent and makes your skin look amazing! I love using it on my nails.

{ Planner Love } New Goodies!

When the hubby and I went grocery shopping yesterday I, of course, had to check out the scrapbooking and stationary sections. I picked up these adorable little panda stickers at the Dollar Tree and these page flags on clearance at Wal-Mart!!

And now for the really good stuff... how precious are these stickers from the amazing Vintage Gypsy Road. 

I won these stickers on her facebook page and I am in love! The quality, the style, the uniqueness.. they are so fabulous. I can't wait to place my first order and post a haul. I already have my Etsy cart full, just waiting until I have a little extra cash!

{ DIY } Spring Tulip Wreath

I needed a new spring wreath and wanted to get crafty and try to make my own! I looked on Pinterest and fell in love with tulip wreaths. I took my inspiration from this gorgeous wreath on Life Love Larson but as I started adding flowers I decided I liked a little bit of the grapevine showing.

I bought 3 bunches of tulips at Michael's (on sale!!) and used a wreath I already had. The total cost for this project was $10.50! I even had a few tulips left over to make a little arrangement for my built-ins!

Happy Spring!
