Day twenty three.

Day twenty three.

Get away.

Sometimes it is nice to just get away. Even if it is for the night. Get a cheap hotel, a bottle of wine and some great friends and just relax :)

Sweet.

Enjoy this song while you browse my profile. I absolutely love Gabe Bondoc's voice and original songs <3



Summer.

My Alaska summer compared to your Florida summer.


 Everyone in Florida will be at the beach with this gorgeous view.

While I am in Alaska with this gorgeous view.

Animal sight seeings in the Ocean of Florida will be dolphins.
  

While in Alaska Ocean sight seeing will consists of whales.

Floridians will watch as beautiful Armadillos cross the road and did wholes in your yard.

While I am in Alaska watching Moose crossing the road!

You will be riding in style.. in the Tye dye hippie van.

While I am traveling via Double Decker glass train!

Floridians are surfing.

As I am hiking and canoeing.

 I also will be rocking my fun shades for 24hrs. 7 day a week sunshine!! <3 


 Thanks for reading... come back tomorrow <3









Day twenty two.

Day twenty two.

Unfriend.

Whether it is on facebook or in person. Leave the negative people behind and do a sweep of who really matters. Believe me you will feel better, I know I do.
Update.

I ended up getting a 98.4 % on my 14 chapter, 110 question Managerial Accounting exam. Studying for 16 hours paid off!

Song Inspiration.

I am in love with Adele especially her album 19. Take a listen to this song while you browse.

Pins.

Today I was so busy moving, driving to visit family and officially packed my bags for Alaska that I didn't really get to concentrate on the blog. (neglecting you today :/) I am going to post some pins that I like that are vintage and some DIY's.

I loved this living room because of the pop of neon yellow they used in the throw pillows. Vintage flare but a bit of dare.

I enjoy recycling and using wood crates, here this person painted them and used the crates to store their shoes. Yes please!

This backboard is super simple you can take come old wood or a pallet and just paint whatever word or phrase that you would like above your head at night.

I really love this simple vintage dining area.

This ladder is used as greenery in the house or patio. At the same time you can use an old ladder inside the house and place flower vases and books as a unique piece of decor.

Cost efficient and cute. These are plates put up on the wall creating a unique wall arrangement.

These vases are so cute when put in picture frames and then placed on top of chicken wire. So fun!

Thank you for reading <3

Day twenty one.

Day twenty one.

Absorb yourself.

So these past two days I have spent twelves hours in the library studying for Managerial Accounting and I just took the final and I am happy to say I am almost positive I got an "A". I can really say that taking the exam was fun because I knew the information so well! 

Song.

I am obsessed with this song and her voice.
Listen while you look at my blog :)

My obsessions.

These are some things that I am obsessed with.

Black and white movies I am in love with... there is nothing like a kick back.. Plus me and my grandma are obsessed and it's something we do together.

Boba tea... Yummy... these tapioca balls are a great meal while being to yummy at the same time... I go out of my way in Tampa just to get a boba tea at my favorite tea shop Kalesia.

I also love Daisies... they are a simple flower just like me and provide happiness <3

I am obsessed with dresses. If I could wear a dress everyday of my life I would. If I had my choice women would only wear dresses. They are so fetch!

Eye make-up is an essential for me and other than being on Broadway my other dream job would be doing make-up for famous people. <3

When I straighten my hair.. the usual style will most likely have some braid intertwined. Why not it's appeasing to the eyes :)

One of my favorite desserts is Key lime pie... I like it tangy not sweet and frozen <3

I am obsessed with my long curly hair. I have the best of both worlds! I love being different with my unique locks <3 I see it as a blessing!

I grew up watching Lucy with my grandma and she is one of my idols. I even named my car after her. Because I LOVE LUCY!

Manhattan is close to my heart and I will move back there one day. The hussel and bussel of people is so energizing.

Shirley Temple = Love 
I have everyone one of her movies when she was young... Her drink is even great!

I love myself a great pair or Sperry's. Even better a guy you can wear them for fashion and not there intended use (aka boating) haha.

I don't have any tattoos but I love this tattoo it kind of made my heart flutter and I don't know why.
Maybe one day I can get one with my other half and we will be like infinity <3

Now you know a little bit more about me :)

Day twenty.

Day twenty.

A.

So my first class is officially done and I got an A... Yeah Lodging and Operations. Hard work,dedication, and stress have paid off this far. I am on a roll.

Bedroom.

So since Michelle and I found our gorgeous apartment today that we will be moving into in August... I am of course pinteresting to find ideas... this is what I am thinking for my room maybe.

As far as the picture below... I am just digging this blue accent color on the back wall in my room. Followed by white and black accents with some rustic inspiration involvement.

The picture below is what I want to do for my bed.  Instead of a box springs I want to put my bed on pallets..this will make my bed close to the ground and more like a urban flat feel.I am going to paint the pallets white before I use them though.

I already have some vintage black and white photographs that I will incorporate around my room and bathroom. Aw well as black and white picture frames.

 This is where some of the rustic comes into play.... get an old wood picture frame and will paint it white or black and add some Polaroid with close pints and hemp.

 This is another great use of old mirrors from thirfting/garage sales that I may not use but would be great to incorporate maybe in my bathroom or some place in our apartment.

This is something that I am absolutely going to do just try to find some suitcases in my color scheme and stake them up and use as a night stand.

 This is a great conversation piece,recycles and is cost efficient. Take your old books and use them as shelves! Wonderful.. so excited for this!

I have a set of old windows exactly like this that I am either going to put above my bed as a headboard/decorative piece or lay around for some rustic decor.


 That is what I have so far, thanks for stopping by and viewing.. if you have any interesting ideas/DIY/links/ or something you think I would like please post a comment <3




Day nineteen.

Day nineteen.


Just think about tomorrow.


Although yesterday was stressful I just closed my eyes and remembered tomorrow I will be one step closer to moving and Alaska! I am finished with two classes and only two more to go. Had a study sesh with my bestie until midnight then ran to Walmart and was able to get about thirty huge boxes so we can pack all our stuff for the big move to our new Orlando apartment and slowly feeling the stress melt away. Tonight we booked a hotel in Orlando (we live in Orlando but sometimes you just need a get away) and are going to drink, study and be loud!! I love exams week <3

Light it up.

Well since I am on this DIY recycle interior designing kick. I decided to do one on lighting fixtures and re-using light bulbs as accents in your house. I was so excited when I actually found my hair chalking tutorial on pinterest.
 (small things make me smile.)


Alright this lighting fixture below is really quite simple to make all you have to do is:
 1. Blow up a balloon
2. Soak some string/hemp in glue
3. Wrap the balloon with the string/hemp
4.Let dry for a couple of days 
5.Pop balloon and attach your light bulb/fixture

The basket lighting is also very easy to do. 
1. Find a basket you are fond of
2. Cut a hole
3. Attache to lighting fixture 

The picture below is a light bulb that has been hollowed out and then some dirt and a plant seed was put in and it makes a cute conversation plant piece.

This is a light bulb that has been made as another lighting fixture, an oil lamp. This DIY also involves hollowing out the light bulb. After that step is completes add some oil used in lamps and the appropriate rope and you are all set.

I love this light bulb idea to hang and use them as vases. They as so cute but the light bulbs need to be hollowed out before you can use them as a vase.

This is a unique door knob that requires the light bulb to be made into concrete.

Tea cups as lighting fixtures... how cute! This I am guessing on but I am thinking that you need to buy some epoxy glue that can handle heat and glue the tea cup and the plate together after you have already managed to cute a hole into the bottom and then slip the bulb in and hang.

How clever a use for umbrellas as lighting fixtures? So cute and sheik. 

Last but not least this is a great wedding or party lighting idea... All you have to do:
1. Wine glasses
2. Insert votive candles into wine glasses
3. Apply mini lamp shades over the wine glasses and votives for a mini lamp at each table

Thank you for reading and following. Please be sure to comment. Also if you could please do the poll on the right hand side of DIY's you would like to see me do in the future.
