twofer DIY post--cake and travel mug!

I swear this is my last DIY post for a while as seeing I'm going back to school in few days (see my previous post about the road trip)! I did two completely different DIY posts in the last few weeks. The first one I couldn't blog until it was completed, some kind of a secret mission if you would call it! ;)



DIY glitter heels!

Yes, you read that right...DIY glitter heels! I thought this would be really tough to do, and never wanted to spend that ridiculous amount of money on expensive glittery shoes. (I have an obsession with glitter, but always am broke.) So when I was helping out the Alpha Sigma Alpha sisters, Britnee's sorority, for their event this Sunday--Heel Violence (psst, go check the website and the Facebook page out!). It's an event showing our support for victims of domestic violence, co-hosted with Advocacy Services for Abused Deaf Victims (ASADV).

We were coming up with ways to make our NTID president, Gerald Buckley, and Robb Adams' heels pop out from the crowd on Sunday....we came up with the idea of glittery heels--but that sounded so hard and so time-consuming. We were sorely wrong.

Find out below! (Edited at 7:01 pm with pictures of Gerald Buckley in the heels!)

DIY Rhinestone Bowl

So, today I did my first DIY project for the first time in a long time. I stumbled across this blog through Pinterest. I fell in love with the glitter vase. I just HAD to have one, or even better--make my own! I thought about it for few days, and today being a super-lazy Sunday. I asked my mom if she wanted to come with me to Michael's and give me some 'mommy-input' in my crazy shopping habits. She did want to come. Once we were there, we had another DIY inspiration--a couple of silver gems/rhinestones. You'll see what we did with my DIY projects below.
