Pretty Things

I decorated some little jars and bottles (inspired by Hummusbird, duh!) from the recycling bin the other day. Kinda silly but sweet, right? I shared some more photos and the steps over on the MHCM Blog if you are interested!

Lovely Lace

This is the window in my studio with a new pretty vintage lace curtain from Make Your Nest. I'm very happy with it! It lets in the perfect amount of light and looks so pretty. It came with the sweetest little birdie gift tag that will surely hang on the wall somewhere or on the fridge!

Periwinkle

I'm loving this blue - periwinkle color lately. It's a great color for spring. The shoes are from H&M (birthday gift card, thanks mom!) and they have really cute lacey-laces! What are your favorite spring colors?

old art

I recently found these water media pieces that I made during my last semester in school (I think). They are from when I was experimenting with water colors/ gouache for a bit. I haven't painted in a while, but these sort of have me wanting to again. Sort of. We'll see.

DIY collar accesory thing!

This detachable collar thing was super easy and fun to make! I used a shirt that I've had for a while but is too big on me so I never wear it. I cut the collar off the shirt making sure to cut along the hem so it wouldn't fray. Then I ironed it so it would have a nice crease. The shirt I was using had some pretty lace on it, so I cut the lace off and hot glued it to the collar! Done! The collar could be embellished in a ton of different ways. Sequins, beads, fabric paint, embroidery, buttons.. whatever you please!

Some detail shots. Get excited about these bows, people!

lace and waves

You could say this is my version of a "What I Wore" post. You get just a peak. I felt just peachy in this lacey/ruffle top at work today. It is such a lovely blush pink color! I've been feeling like dressing up lately- maybe more outfit inspired posts to come!
