DIY: Boho boots

Heyy guys! So first off I want to apologize that I haven't been updating my blog recently, but with school starting and everything I just haven't had the time. So today I have a DIY that I found on youtube by Mr. Kate and it is a "boho" boot tutorial. So what you will need is a pair of cowboy boots with a leather interior that you are okay with cutting, E6000 glue, glue gun with fabric glue sticks, masking tape, belts, lace, and any other material you want to use to adorn your boots. Start off by cutting down the back of one of the boot all the way down to the heel cap. Then bend the top down over the bottom. Take your belts and start wrapping them around your boot. Add other materials as desired. Once you get the look that you want start gluing them into place. Glue fabrics, ribbons, and lace with the fabric glue using the glue gun and the belt with the E6000 glue. Wear protection when using E6000 glue because it can damage you brain cells. Use masking tape to hold things in place while they dry.

Stay Beautiful! ;D

August Favorites

Since August ended about a week ago I thought I would share my favorite products from the month of August. The first product is the Boscia BB cream. BB creams cover up blemishes along with containing acne fighting ingredients. They even have sunscreen in them. I don't like to wear a lot of make up so I usually just wear some BB cream to cover up my acne and even out my skin tone. The next product is the Boscia blotting papers. These absorb excess oils on your face. This is good to prevent acne and to get rid of any shininess. I like the EOS lip balm because it moisturizes my lips without making them sticky, and because it's not glossy it doesn't rub off. I like Essie nail polish in clambake because it gives me a bright pop of color. The orangy red hue is great for summer and can even work for fall and around the holidays. The urban decay primer potion is great to make eye shadows last and keep them from smudging. I like the urban decay naked eyeshadow palette because it has a variety of neutral colors that i can wear anytime. I like the color club nail polish in Blue-ming because i love its bright mint color. The Neutrogena daily facial sunblock is a great sunscreen that can be worn under make up or a facial moisturizer. Its very light but gives great protection with SPF 50. One thing that I don't like about it is that it leaves a whitish tint to my skin. Lastly, the Vanilla Dee-lite lotion from Lush is a thick, creamy, moisturizing lotion with a delicious vanilla scent.

Stay Beautiful! ;D

DIY: Chain headband

Chain headbands are a great way to change up your look with out dying or cutting your hair. You will need several different colored chains, jump rings, pliers, and a wrap around comb headband similar to your hair color. Take one of your chains and measure out the length you want it to be. Take your pliers and break open the chain link at the end of your desired length and separate the two pieces. Repeat this until all of your chains are the length you want. You should have twoof the same chain of the same length for each. Take the two longest chains and set them on your work surface. Then take the two next longest and place one on each side of the longest pair. Continue laying out your chains so that the shortest are on the outside and the longest are on the inside. Once you have all of your chains layed out, take you pliers and open one of your jump rings. attach the jump ring to one of your longest center chains and hook the jump ring on to the headband right at the clasp. Do the same thing with your other longest chain to the other side of the clasp. Continue attaching your chians in hte pattern you have them layed out, skipping every other loop in the headband. You can alter your headband to fit your style like attaching chains to every loop instead of skipping every other one or laying out your chains in a different pattern.

Stay Beautiful! ;D

DIY: Hex Nut Bracelet

This bracelet is super easy and fun to make, not to mention it makes an adorable accessory. All you need is 18 hex nuts, tape, scissors, and some leather cord. Take the cord and wrap it around your wrist about 3 times. Depending on how long you want it to be, add or subtract from the length of the cord and cut it. You will need 3 pieces of cord of this length. take the cord pieces and line them up so the ends are even, then tie a knot 2 inches from the top. Use the tape to secure the knot to the surface you are working on. Start to braid your cord. When you are satisfied by the length of braid begin to add your hex nuts. Starting with the piece of cord farthest to the left, slide on one of your hex nuts. Fold the left cord over the middle cord. Then, slide a hex nut on to the cord farthest to the right. Fold the right cord over theleft cord, which is now the middle cord. Continue braiding in the hex nuts and after you use them all finish the bracelet off with a traditional braid.

Stay Beautiful! ;D

DIY: Shirt scarf #2

Here's another way to turn an old short into a trendy scarf! I got this tutorial off of P.S.- I made this.... Take your shirt and cut across under the armpits. Take the bottom and mark lines about 1/3 of the  way up; you decide how thick or thin you want your strips. Then, cut along your lines. Also cut along the seam. Pull on the strips so they curl, and your done!

P.S. I made this.....

Stay Beautiful! ;D
