Tomorrow school starts... school starts tomorrow...today is the last day of summer. I'm trying to help my brain out but it still is not kicking in. I just got back from senior trip at Sky Ranch. It was such a good experience. I had extremely low expectations knowing very little of the trip but expecting to be forced into other friend groups and drilled about leadership. It was not like this at all. They wanted us to expand our friendships but did not force it. The talks were about listening to the Lord's plan for our life this next year which if we are doing, will help us be a good leader in the end. Being able to hang out with people outside of school is something really cool and I had tons of fun.




Since school is tomorrow and I have time to blog I thought I would whip out this easy DIY for you all. I'm totally obsessed with these leather tassels that are everywhere. I almost bought one on Etsy for around $10 but then decided not to. I'm so glad I didn't because I made this one for free.


STEP 1: cut a piece of leather as long as you want the tassel to be
STEP 2: measure according to the length of the tassel how long you want the fringe to be.
STEP 3: draw a line in pencil on the wrong side of the leather where you are going to cut the fringe up to
STEP 4: cut as much fringe as you want (for this 3 inch tassel I cut 2 inches of fringe.) (The longer the tassel the more fringe you need)
STEP 5: cut the last fringe off from the rest of your leather
STEP 6: (not photographed) cut a small strip of leather around the same size of a tassel for the top of the tassel so you can loop it on to other items
STEP 7: hot glue down your loop to the top of your tassel
STEP 8: tightly roll your tassel together as your use a small amount of glue only on the top
STEP 9:(optional) you can add pieces of fabric around top of tassel for decoration.
STEP 10: attach a metal ring to the loop and attach to key chain, backpack....

School is right around the corner and this year I decided to do some fun DIY's with things I already had. I've been really trying to save money for future travel and with that comes sacrifices such as not buying the latest trendy school supplies you don't really need. So instead I looked on Pinterest and around websites for this school years hottest trends and made them myself! I spend $0 on this but then again I had all of these materials at my house. Get creative with what you have. Pinterest has awesome DIY's you just have to look for. Follow me there to see the latest DIYs I've pinned. 

Today I am going to show you how to make the hugely popular tassels and pom poms. I have seen these everywhere and I'm so excited to be able to make them myself. You can add these to a number of things such as book marks, key chains, back pack zippers... They are super fast and easy to make once you get the hang of it. It does take practice. 



I hope you enjoyed this super fun and simple DIY! More are coming here's a sneak peak of the next

 As you know I did a post awhile ago on how to make a flower headband. Though I do really like that headband what I have seen recently is big flower crowns. They are gracing tons of magazines like teen vogue. They are all over tumbler and weheartit. Today I am going to show you to make one. It is very simple and takes very few tools.

{What You Will Need}

• A bouquet of fake flowers (I got mine at Michael's)
• A hot glue gun and glue sticks
• A headband
