DIY flat makeover

the weather in North Carolina is getting cold. my toes don't want to wear sandals anymore and all my shoes are.... old. We are on a budget.. just like everyone else. so funds for new shoes are not at the top of the list. I should have thought about that before getting two new coats.. Oh well the crafter in me fueled by coffee decided that I could easily transform a pair of my old beat up flats and keep wearing them... no washing them didnt cross my mind. and I love the way they turned out!

 

 

 

 



 

you are going to need an old pair of shoes, a sharpie, and something to stuff the shoes with so they are easier to draw on.

 

 

I used tissue paper, because it was sitting next to me. But you cold use paper towel or newspaper.

my shoes were fabric flats from the little girls section at target.

I picked this mum shaped flower because its very easy to draw, it looks nice repeated and overlapped. and the shoes already had a floral print to them making an interesting background. so just pick a starting point, and start your pattern. and keeeeeep drawing it. again and again. until you have covered your entire shoe.

then repeat on the other shoe.

then feel awesome for just saving your husband $20 dollars.

I would love to see if any of you do this!

Insta-Friday

I cant believe that it's Friday already. 

But to be honest with Bee on his new schedule I hardly ever know what day it is, so I'm not entirely sure why I'm surprised to find that another week has flown by

I'm going to start doing a Insta-Friday post where I show some of my favorite instagram pictures from the week. 

sound good? 

good. 

 I got a few Pallets this week. I cant tell you how excited I am about this.. 

I have been wanting them for probably about a year now.

 

 One of my favorite snacks in the fall...or really anytime is apples and caramel dip.

 Surprise lunch date with Bee. He took me to Chinese on Halloween and they gave us some candy!

Greek yogurt...love it? or leave it? I tried it for the first time the other day and wasn't really a big fan. I drizzled honey in and it was much better.. hopefully the other flavors I got will be better. one of my followers on instagram suggested mixing in cucumbers or fresh fruit.. I'm going to try it out.

Cannot seem to beat this cold. I got the flu mist almost a month ago, and the following week got a cold. (I'm totally blaming it on the flu mist although I'm not sure it was related) I felt so much better a week ago and then all the sudden it hit me like a brick to the face again. I'm almost out of alka-seltzer again.

 Halloween... we weren't planning on handing out candy. then at 5:30 we decided we really wanted to. I headed out and drove about five miles an hour to the store here on Base. They were SOLD OUT of individually wrapped candy. Went out into town and found these cute little bones and some bubble gum. Traffic was horrible getting back on base because of all the trick or treator's.

 Do you ever read Little Chief Honeybee? She had this amazing outfit post the other day and I got super inspired by the color combo. A dusty lavender dress and a mustard yellow cardi with pearl buttons. I pulled out my buttons and popped the pearly part out and made a scarf with buttons! (i have a long shirt the same color as the dress.)

painted my nails with this pretty shimmery fuchsia color and used a matte top coat. then started prying old pallets apart. No worries. I have had two tetanus shots this year. ( I'm sure that's probably really bad... but I had forgotten I got one and when she was about to give it to me I was like WAIT IVE ALREADY HAD ONE! and because I was being such a baby she thought I was lying. I wasn't.)

Prying pallets apart in flip flops.. super safe...see previous picture

 The traffic heading back on base on Halloween.

 Its fall and I'm still wearing flip flops. I love North Carolina like that.

Sugarheart Magazine

Im going to be in a Magazine. 

Sugarheart Magazine!

Im pretty excited. 

We did a photo shoot a couple months ago and had a ton of fun with it.

I was wondering if she was going to use the photo. So when she messaged me today asking if it was okay I was pumped!

I messaged her right back

OF COURSE!

why would it not be okay? who doesn't want to be in a magazine? 

I'm going to be ordering one for Bee for Christmas.. or thanksgiving...or veterans day... or because its Friday 

 

You should for sure order it. The proceeds from each issue go to Pitbull rescues. 

Its a great cause, and you get a great magazine filled with pretty girls and really cool articles.

sneak peak.
