Being Inspired..


So being crafty and getting great idea off of the top of your head and be hard sometimes.

I'm not gonna lie; I say all the time "Why can't I be inspired or 'artsy'?"

...but recently I've found out that I can be inspired and recreate what I've seen to make it my own.


Here's how..

//Find your favorite things...they are all around ya!//
Inspiration can be drawn from something as simple as the uber cute wallpaper on your phone to a tile pattern you saw on t.v. to a pillow you were fawning over in the store last week. Look to what you like and not simply what everyone else is raving over.

//Believe in yourself//
Yes...I know this sounds cliche but we all have potential; just in different areas. I feel that I suck at free hand nail art but today I sucked it up and did it (it turned out super cute btw, I'll be showing them tomorrow(; )!

//Like Nike...just do it//
I mean come on, if we don't try we'll never know...so just try & if you fail then try again (maybe haha). But just take a chance and see what happens!

//Show you what inspires you//
Keep those creative juices flowing and show off your style by getting/making a dream board. Pinning up things that inspire you can lead to other things...for me it's usually something relate to home decor (for my room) or beauty but hey anytthing can happen! Or go the virtual way and get a Pinterest!


///Some things that have inspired me lately///

I think I got this from Instagram...sorry I don't remember from who!

This bathing suit form Old Navy...love it.




I hope that these tips can help you to be inspired and that you have fun trying out some new things!
I showed you some pics that inspire me so, what inspires you?
Let me know it the comments!

DIY Sugar Scrub! mmmm(:

Hey! I'm back with a little DIY tutorial that will make your hands or any other areas of the body super smooth.

Again as I have stated in my Important Stuff Page, I am in no way a professional! This is just something that I have made and that I like to use in order to get soft skin(:

Coconut Oil does have skin moisturizing properties along with anti-bacterial properties (so it's great for feet!). Jojoba Oil is great to use as an anti-inflammatory, skin moisturizer  (treating dry skin), and also is used in cosmetics because it minimizes pores and fine lines/wrinkles and won't clog pores. Sounds great, right?!

Now onto the fun stuff(; For this scrub I used Coconut Oil, Jojoba Oil, and just regular ole' sugar! I don't have a 'recipe' for this, but I do recommend equal parts of the oils and then put twice as much sugar as you did oil into the mix (or just enough to make it thick as you see in my photo tutorial). Afterwards you"ll have baby soft hands and they will smell like coconut, yummy! Here is my tutorial below!(:

1. Gather materials: Jojoba oil, Coconut oil, A small cup or jar (whatever your preference), nail brush, Sugar & a spoon or anything to stir the scrub with.
2. Put jojoba oil and coconut oil together.
3. Heat oils in the microwave for about 10 seconds ( if using a small cup and amount like mine shown above. If not add more time, around 5 or 6 seconds at a time.).
4. Add Sugar! 
5.This is just to show that separating of the oil and sugar may occur, this is natural(: (But if your oil doesn't rise it's also okay, I have a generic recipe but at the same time add the amount of sugar for the intensity of exfoliation your skin can handle).
6. Tada!! You now have you own sugar scrub that will blow you away! Now go scrub!(:


Have Fun and if you have you own oils test them out and maybe you could make a brand new scrub, if so let me know in the comments below!

WEN(:

Hey out there!I just wanted to say that I have gotten WEN Cleansing Conditioner!



Have any of  you ever use it before?



Well WEN is supposed to be something revolutionary, something big, something new! Right on WEN's site it says that WEN is...
WEN® Cleansing Conditioner is a revolutionary new concept in hair care. A 5-in-1 formula, this one product takes the place of your shampoo, conditioner, deep conditioner, detangler and leave-in conditioner. It cleanses hair thoroughly but without lathering and all the harsh ingredients that may be found in ordinary shampoos-it is designed not to strip your hair and scalp of their natural oils. Your hair is left with strength, moisture and manageability.
This seems great, right? I can not wait to , try it! My hair is relaxed and healthy but it would be better if I could find a hair care product that wouldn't use any chemicals in order to keep my hair looking: beautiful, healthy and frizz free (sense humidity is its worst during the summer months). I purchased the Fig WEN, it has a a very strong, earthly smell to it; but the only thing that I am waiting on is the WEN Styling Creme and then I will be ready to jump into the world of WEN! If any of you have use WEN, tell l me how it went for you.
