greenery

This week I have had sort of a green thumb. Yesterday, I decided to buy a lovely jade plant. Then on Wednesday, my friend, Lara, came over to show me how to make terrariums. Here are some pictures!




[do you see the heart shaped leaf in there?]



Here is the terrarium I made with Lara. I planted strawberry clover and asylum in mine. I can't wait for it to sprout! I keep checking it almost every hour to see if it somehow magically grew already.




These I have had for quite some time. I snip off a bit of plant and put them in empty diffuser bottles with water. I just started that little one in the middle last week.

thrifting treasures

So finally I stopped being a slacker and decided to attempt taking pictures of my new treasures! I say "attempt" because I was using my bfs massive pro camera that I have no clue how to operate. So, I apologize for the badly taken pictures you are about to see haha!















Here is a crushed velvet gem that I found on Sunday. I'm going to turn it into a long sleeve crop top. I'm really excited to start working on this! I love the dark purple crushed velvet with the studs. Plus, that studding on the neckline...gotta love it. I'll post pictures up when I finish it!

diy

Two totally diy pieces that I want to add to my "to do" list.


American Apparels Le Sac Dress - There are so many ways to wear this! Why spend $40 bucks when I can recreate this in a couple hours?




I'm in love with these shorts! All you have to do is cut up a pair of jeans and add lace to the bottom! Piece of cake.



Now I just need to find the time and a puppy sitter! Haha!
