<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">It's my mama's birthday today! Instead of being all boring about picking out a gift, I compiled a few mock BirchBoxes I called "MomBox" and stuffed them full of goodies I know she'll like. Included inside: a cute summer tank top, cupcake liners & patterns for decorating them with sprinkles, EOS hand lotion & a mini makeup bag from Le SportSac</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I'm glad I got to recycle my Birchboxes in the process, too- they've been piling up in my closet for the past few months! Despite BirchBox being a pretty green company already, I always feel good about re-using things I have around the house :3</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">For a more detailed recipe check out her post, but here's the basics:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;">3 1/4 cup flour<br />1/2 cup sugar<br />1 tbsp + 1 tsp baking powder<br />1/4 tsp salt<br />1 1/4 cup raspberries<br />1 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips<br />2 cups cold heavy cream<br />2 tbsp butter/ melted<br />sugar for sprinkling</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;"><br /></span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;">Preheat oven to 375. Mix the first six ingredients in a large bowl, then add heavy cream until you have a sticky dough. Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out your dough into a log, then divide it into three equal parts. Don't worry if it seems like the dough isn't sticking together enough- crumbly, barely together dough makes for crumbly pastries! Pat and roll these sections into round, flat discs about 6-8 inches in diameter, then use a pizza cutter to slice into triangles (should make 4-8 per disc). Paint with melted butter, sprinkle sugar on top & bake for 20 minutes, until the tops are golden.</span></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;">Trust me- for the time and ingredients these require, they are SO worth it!</span></span></div>

Went a little higher on the tips than last time with the bleach, I might add some color eventually but I like the way it looks now (especially when I put it up in a ponytail). Here are some pics of the process- I just used a cheap $7 home bleach kit I picked up at Sally's, left it in for a little over an hour and it did the job well!</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">While reading a copy of <i>Bead Soup</i> I picked up last weekend, there was a cool article for crafty people who (like me) struggle choosing color palettes! Check out this bead site where <a href="http://www.redpandabeads.com/servlet/the-Monday%27s-Mixes/Categories">Monday Mixes</a> are released every week- I was inspired by the Autumn Monday mix to make an anklet with coral and green compliments this morning.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">A lousy, rainy day outside calls for a photo shoot inside! Lately I've been wearing plainer outfits like this, and adding accessories like this scarf I picked up in Italy, or a big, chunky necklace. The shirt is Forever 21, the pants are from American Eagle, and the shoes are Blowfish.</span></div>

I've been away for so long and I feel like so much has happened recently, most of it positive and very exciting for me (: Over spring break I went to Italy with the Fairfield University Glee Club and had a FANTASTIC time. I might do a picture post sometime in the upcoming days. But for now, I've been meaning to post about the products I've tried from my Love Voxbox that I received about 2 weeks ago. </span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">(I opened my products before I could photograph them so I stole this photo from <a href="http://sweetsandbeauty.tumblr.com/">Sweets & Beauty</a>)</span></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Admittedly I haven't tried all the products yet, but the ones I have I really enjoyed.</span></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">1. Gillette Venus & Olay Razor: I usually use pretty cheap, disposable razors so this was a wonderful change for me. The lather is built around the blade so you don't need to prep with soap or shaving cream, and I didn't knick myself at all from using the brand new blades. Unfortunately it got kindof smushed and broken on the plane ride back from Italy so I had to throw it out, but I got a solid 2 weeks worth of use from it.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">2. Stash Tea Herbal Tea Sampler: I had a cup of the Acai Berry tea before bed one night & it was perfect for falling asleep soothed. A little bitter with the berry taste but overall good quality when steeped for a few minutes and sweetened with honey.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">3. Ghirardelli Gourmet Milk Creamy Devotion Bar: So I gave up dessert for Lent... but snuck a tiny square of this oh-so-irresistible chocolate. What can I say besides it being melt-in-your-mouth delicious? </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I'm not a huge fan of artificial sweetners, even though Truvia claims to be "natural" I'd prefer using actually natural cane sugar to sweeten my coffee or tea. Something about having no calories can't be completely healthy, hmm? The cheetah print nail decals aren't exactly my style so I haven't tried them yet, but if I'm feeling feline-adventurous one day I might give them a shot. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Life has been pretty awesome for me lately, and oh man this weather just makes it easier to be happy.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I've been working on this for the past few days, semi-hurriedly since I've been very busy with school work and studying. The text talks about my personality, my love of nature, and my creativity, which manifest themselves into characteristics I find in myself beneficial to a person leading freshman through Orientation. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">In other news, I received my giveaway prize from <a href="http://blog.ponypeople.nl/">Pony People</a>! I can't decide if I want to send the postcards or just hang them around my room, they're too cool :3 I totally adore the Animal Farm reference of "4 legs good, 2 legs bad" they used as their theme.</span><br />

I love how it looks! I'm hoping it'll stay this color for a while and won't fade much.</div>

I can't wait to use that polish! And the samples of course, I've tried the perfume & it's lovely (sweet and warm, and reminds me of <a href="http://www.victoriassecret.com/ss/Satellite?ProductID=1265669583911&c=Page&cid=1321713089848&pagename=vsdWrapper">this scent</a> from Victoria's Secret). I've always wanted to try using eyeshadow primer so this is the perfect opportunity. I've been getting more into makeup and beauty products lately, maybe since I started my Birchbox subscription?<br />

A few doodles here, a few doodles there, mostly the result of watching shows on Hulu while being at my desk and playing too much Pokemon, heh. I got some pretty huge watercolor paper for Christmas so in the future I plan to outline/paint a whole landscape, who knows when I'll have time for it though.<br />
<br />

I'm nearing the final countdown of going back to school, hopefully staying busy and making this last week count!</div>

I've come to you with an easy DIY today that you can experiment with to make some trendy-cute jewelry. I found a few spools of colored wire in my closet the other day and this is what I came up with!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">1. Make a simple loop in the wire like so</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">2. Loop around in the other direction so the wire looks like a bow-tie</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">3. Finish up by looping the wire around the middle once more to pull the whole thing together</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">And there you go! I made a whole string of these, then added a little loop-and-hook clasp on the end and turned it into a bracelet, but I think these bows are so cute there could be a million other uses for them :3</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">This happens to be my favorite purchase of the day, a Liz Claiborne shoulder bag for only $6.00!

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I'll post my thrifting finds with photos tomorrow (I got some really cute pieces and paid less than $20 for all of it) but I wanted to share a nail experiment I tried out tonight- the results, well, you can judge them yourselves.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The marble effect (that I found through <a href="http://quietlioncreations.blogspot.com/2011/08/super-cool-nail-effect-diy.html">this post</a> and <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/Miss80Million#p/u/18/04jSZeM6MSM">this tutorial</a>) is pretty messy, it'll probably take another day for the polish to completely come off my skin. It was a bit tricky to work with since poking the polish to make designs in the water didn't go so well, my toothpick kept getting twisted and stuck in the polish and I'd have to start over.</span></div>

I've been enjoying mine to the maximum, it's so nice to know I have no commitments or work to do until I'm back at school mid-January. I thought I'd show you a few pictures of some things I got for Christmas, mostly from my parents:</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I don't exactly know what I was aiming for with this combination but I really like the way it came out :3 I could have used another layer of the white polish as the base though, and that would have fixed the opacity problem. I did one layer of each polish, in the order they appear, and this is how it came out:</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I went home this Columbus Day weekend missing the crafty part of my life college has so far deprived me of, so I decided to try out this crayon melting project the hipsters of the world have been tumbling about lately. The directions are simple; hot glue and start melting, although the crayon can splatter a bit if you do this too quickly or use a hairdryer with a higher setting. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Voila! It'll just be hanging in my dorm room for the rest of the year but it was so simple to make I might experiment a bit more the next time I have a chance. Red and green christmas themed gifts perhaps?</span>Hannah Bethhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16769448245726162686noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5173145531033781353.post-60311716569939597952011-09-02T11:55:00.000-07:002011-12-30T11:57:59.420-08:00finished tie-dye<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I'm really impressed with the way my tie-dye came out! The orange I used on the long sleeve shirt was a little funky but it fades after I wash it once, so the color near the neck shouldn't be so vibrant. The green shirt was already green but it had a few spots on it so I tie-dyed a spiral to cover them up. The other two are Gilly Hicks shirts that didn't fit a friend of mine any more, so I figured I could try to make them wearable again. </span><br />

I soaked the shirts in warm saltwater for about 20 minutes before I started, I've bought and used soda ash previously and there isn't a noticeable difference in the quality of the dye later on. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Then I tied the shirts with rubber bands, sometimes I follow video tutorials if I want to go for a specific look but this time I folded one into stripes, one the traditional spiral, one a bull's eye, and the last one was a bit random. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Then comes the fun part! I don't use buckets of dye, rather I saved a bunch of plastic water bottles and I've been re-using those for a while. They're easy to store when I'm not in the dyeing mood (the dye doesn't go bad or anything, I just leave the bottles in my garage so they don't make a mess in the house). </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Then simple pour as much as your heart desires! I don't wear gloves since semi-dyed hands don't really bother me, but I would definitely suggest wearing old clothes for this type of project.
