Project: How To Make The Perfect Bow (in 3 different ways!)
I love finishing touches on gifts! Sometimes, that silky ribbon really makes the whole present pop. In this post, I’ll teach you three totally unique ways on how to make the perfect bow- whether it be the dressing for a jewelry box or a decoration for your paper crafts!

What a lovely weekend! The first we didn’t spend traveling all over the place (though it was still quite busy!) Once May hits in Philly, it’s officially festival season. Usually the festivals are spread out across the summer, but yesterday there happened to be at least 5 on the same day at the same time! I only hit up two of them (then was sunburned and needed to go home and nap) but it was great just the same! While I hustle to get Monday’s post ready to roll, you can read about the festivals I attended in Sunday Funday: Issue 12! Continue reading Sunday Funday: Issue 12
Last Saturday, the Husband and I went to the Morris Arboretum here in Philadelphia to celebrate our 6 month anniversary! It’s where we got married back in October, so we thought it would be a perfect place to go. It was also a completely gorgeous day, so it was definitely a great choice! When we got there, they happened to be celebrating Arbor Day with a “Home Tweet Home” Exhibit of designer birdhouses amongst the grounds! We grabbed a map and spent the next few hours on a birdhouse scavenger hunt! Continue reading Morris Arboretum: Home Tweet Home
Not. Amused.
Project: DIY Turban Headband Tutorial
I love the look of turban headbands, but usually they are either WAY too large (Hello! I don’t want 100% of my hair covered or else I’d wear a hat!) OR they are WAY too expensive (Oh Anthropologie, you do it to me every time! $38 for one headband?! I just can’t.) I started searching and found many a tutorial on making your own. Some were great and some were, well, really hard to follow. I took pieces of several different tutorials and came up with my own, for a skinnier version of a turban headband! It isn’t perfect, but I really like how it turned out. Maybe you will too! Continue reading DIY Turban Headband Tutorial
It’s officially May. That means a few things for me. First, it’s festival season here in Philly (yay!!!). Second, it’s birthday season in my family so I’ll be quite poor by the 31st (I’m counting at least 6!). Third, Mother’s Day is just around the corner on May 11th. And fourth, it’s Brain Tumor Awareness Month! The last two tie together for me in a big way. Continue reading Celebrating Mom!
