TIM {DIY Pearl Lights}

got the idea from DIYAmazing

TIM: Things I've Made {Faux Porcelain Pearl Ring}

You guys get 2 TIM posts this week! LUCKY! :)

Today I'm talking about this HUGE pearl ring DIY that I saw from Fall for DIY. You can find the tutorial in that link...but here's how mine turned out:

All you need is faux porcelain {Michaels}, and wire in whatever color you want {I used a little thinner wire than FFDIY, because that's what I had and it probably would have 

worked better with the thicker wire, but it still works),

In other news...I got this darling LOVE banner from Lisa Leonard and I love the way it looks with my picture banner. Go check out Lisa Leonard's shop--she is amazing!

TIM: Things I've Made {Earrings}

Happy St. Patty's Day! 

Instead of getting plastered in the dead-drunk sense, I'm going to get plastered in the glue-plaster sense.

 ha. ha. ha. And that was my lame attempt at a joke. It won't happen again! promise. ;)

But really, all you need for this TIM is glue, earring fronts and backs (Michaels), and whatever scraps you have laying around.

I saw this tutorial for Monkey Fist Knot Earrings and I thought they were darling...the knot though is the hardest thing I've every tried to craft! It took me forever to do one and even then it didn't turn out exactly how I wanted, but they're still pretty cute rope earrings. :)

Then, I had some chain left over from the Fairy Dust Necklaces, so I twisted that around an earring front and let the glue dry. Voila! Instant chain earrings.

You could use buttons, fabric, washi tape, duct tape, ANYTHING at all: plaster it up and wear your creation out for a night on the town. drink up!

{h&m}

I saw this sign at a H&M one day and I just love it. Fashion is ongoing, ever changing, ever evolving, never taking a break. Bless fashion. I would have a lot of smile-less, laugh-less, ugly days with out it. :)

Fashion is even more fun when you can make it yourself! 

I found this tutorial on Lexi Levin and had to try it out for myself! {DIY Fairy Dust Necklace}

(I found the little bottles, chain, and glitter at Michaels)

TIM: Things I've Made {admit one}

I got together with gal pal Blaynie one night and we made these darling ticket displays.

I thought I was the only one that kept EVERY.single.ONE of my ticket stubs from seemingly 

insignificant places (mostly movies), but she does too! YAY for not being alone in weirdness! :)

It's SO easy to make:

You'll need:

A hollow display frame (we got ours at Hobby Lobby)

Decorative paper, ribbons, washi tape, etc

Paint

Tickets

Paint frame. While paint is drying, decorate the back panel. I liked the shiny gold and copper paper and I thought it gave texture to use the burlap. Toss tickets inside and close it up. 

That's it. So easy right!?

You can totally to it!

TIM: Things I've Made {Easy Way to Display Pictures}

I love pictures. I love being behind the camera, squaring up a sight, and capturing it forever.

I also love displaying pictures, but I always have so many, it's hard to know where to put them.

I have a big 3 window space in my tiny room, so I thought it would be fun to fill it up with pictures.

I love the square look of instagram photos, so I made all of mine 3" x 3". After you've got your pictures printed here's what you do:

1. cover the fronts of clothespins with washi tape. you can use all the same color,

but I like the colorful rainbow it makes with tons of different designs.

2. hang a long piece of string, twine, rope...whatever you have.

3. make it a bit tighter than you think it should be, because 

the pictures and clothespins weigh it down quite a bit.

4. hang your pictures

That's it! So easy! And so easy to replace and rearrange photos when you need a change. 

Which, if you're like me is every other week! ;)

TIM: Things I've Made: Colorful Washi Keyboard

My keyboard was SO boring and I'm always looking for Washi Tape crafts, so when I saw this idea on Pinterest--I had to #doitmyself.

Mine is just a random pattern, but you could for sure make it aabbccaabbcc or all the same color or all the same washi if you wanted--just be creative! :)
