Love this party idea! Had a movie theatre (Hollywood) version at my baby shower early last month! Full recipe for the popcorn, pastel M&M and white chocolate drizzle (#YUM) party mix can be found here, at Scissors and Spatulas. You can also order personalized boxes through the blog to match your theme and color scheme [...]
How cute is this?! And easy (my fave kind of projects). Brighten up your dining experience by simply dipping old cutlery into neon colored enamel or blasting the handles with some spray paint. That’s as complicated as it gets! This unexpected pop of color will be a hit at your next dinner party or social [...]
My sister, Angela (and bag model in photo below!), gets all the credit for this project. I just watched… after I tried to help and made a mess of her work 3 times. So, apparently, there are a lot of things you can make with the new colored duct tape that’s out there. In fact, [...]
Are you attached to some old piece of furniture you’ve been hanging onto since college? Is it all types of fugs but you just can’t bring yourself to say goodbye? Try changing the hardware! Take it from the least DIY-inclined biatch in history. This will take just minutes, a few dollars and only requires the [...]
Got this great gift — thanks to @nothinbutstars and fam! — for my wedding and thought I’d share, because I am loving it so much. How cute is this wall art?! This has special meaning for us, since we met at The Shore, but it can be a great present for any couple — whether [...]
My friend Shana has the best home decor — ornate and unique pieces that she’s acquired along different times, travels and apartment leases. It is all in fabulous taste. Because this kind of shiz does not come naturally to me, I’d like to copy her style entirely. So, imagine my thrill when I came across [...]
#easiestDIYever Next time you’re getting hammered at home on a Friday night, save a few empty Bud Light Lime bottles (or any other clear beer bottle of your choice — i.e. Corona) for your next DIY project. Pick up a bottle of matte, white spray-paint (like $4 per bottle , you’ll only need 1). Feel [...]
#imbrokeitaintnojoke When I used to live in the Bronx and take the D-train to my unpaid internships 100 years ago, there was a lady that would sing “I’m broke, it ain’t no joke” every single day on the subway. I never thought I’d be so touched by her lyrics so many years later. Fast forward [...]
#craftsfordummies #notyourmamasmartha 1. Find an old end table, at a flea market, thrift shop or nominate a piece that’s lying around the house/apartment that you hate, but haven’t tossed yet. Mine happens to be a dorm room hand-me-down that has followed me to my last three residences. [$0.00] 2. Sand it. Don’t go crazy breaking a sweat. Just rough up the [...]
