Current Loves!

I’ve been kind of obsessed with a fair amount of things recently, and can’t tear myself away from them long enough to type out a full blog post for each of them! So I combined them into a longer post – here’s what my life has looked like lately 😀 (this is a rather poor attempt at making me look like I’ve been doing anything interesting)

Making Christmas!

My boyfriend agreed to decorate his apartment for Christmas this year, which was really exciting for me – while my family celebrates the get-together aspect of the holidays, we’ve never gotten too festive about it. So this is a little late, I know, but I wanted to share my very first Christmas tree with you! *___* (okay so my boyfriend put it up and is responsible for 100000% of it but I am laying claim to it anyway). It’s a fake tree because his apartment is carpeted, and neither of us wanted to deal with needles, haha.

Bling ALL THE THINGS

I have always loved arts, crafts, and things of that nature. Unfortunately, I am not that creative ): I’m the type of person who can follow a recipe and make the greatest food ever (…more or less), but give me a pile of ingredients and tell me to do something with it and I will probably just stare blankly at it for a while and then starve to death.

So you can imagine how excited I was when I discovered deco kits! They are basically just precounted sets of rhinestones and/or cabochons, so you can stick them to whatever you want. My phone is a Sprint-only model (the HTC EVO 4G LTE, a lengthy name for a hugeass phone. I love it though), so cute cases are few and far between. I decided it would be a lot more fun to make my own, especially when I have directions telling me exactly what to do XD My only fear was that there wouldn’t be enough rhinestones to cover a case for my gigantic phone, since a lot of these kits seem to be made with the size of the iPhone in mind.
