If You Want Something Do it Yourself- Stud Earrings

My brother was trying to get rid of an old studded belt he had. When I saw him trashing it, I knew I could use the studs to make a few cool projects. I wanted to share this super easy diy stud earring idea with you all. It takes hardly any time and after a few minutes you will have some awesome earrings to add your accessory collection.

Here's how to do it yourself:

1. A pair of earring posts

2. Pieces of felt, I cut each of mine 3/4 inch 

3. Studs (8 total)

4. Glue gun

1. Make sure brads are pushed in to the middle, I did just by using my fingers.

2. Place glue on backside of stud.

3. Attach to felt.

4. After all four studs are attached trim the edges of the felt.

5. Place glue on back of felt and press the ear post down where you want it. I wanted my earrings to be in the shape of a diamond so I placed my post at the top corner. 

6. Repeat all of these steps to make a pair.

Hope you enjoyed this :)

You Don't Know Until You Try

Cardigan: Thrifted, Top: Thrifted, Skirt: LC Lauren Conrad/Kohl's, Boots: Charlotte Russe

Yesterday when getting dress, I realized I had left my heels behind at the boyfriend's place. The only close toe shoes I had were my black boots which I normally wouldn't have worn with this look. I wear these boots all the time when I go to my rock concerts and almost felt like they were too harsh for the lady like skirt. I have to say I actually like the way it looked together...I guess you'll never know if you don't try something different every once in awhile.

How often do you try something new?

Pretty Things: That Make Me Want to Spend my Time Outside

Hey lovelies, I hope you all had a wonderful holiday and enjoyed the weekend :) 

Now that it's Monday, I wanted to start the week off with Pretty Things: just a series of beautiful images that inspire me.

With the weather finally starting to change I realized I  don't get outside as much as I would like to. These pretties are making me want to spend my days and nights outside while it's still warm enough to do so.

1. During the day it would be nice to lay in a field telling my dreams to the flowers around me. 

I'd wear one of my most girly dresses and sketch all day in my inspiration book and maybe sing a few songs with the birds around me.

2. At night I wouldn't mind getting lost in a world with just the boyfriend hiding out in a place of our own under a tree of lights. We'd laugh all night and talk about all the adventures we are going to take together while staying warm under a cozy blanket.

So tell me...

Are you more of a day or night person?
