Nail art designs: Glitter polka dot love


Hello lovelies, today I am going to share some nail designs, I recently did on my nails and I am quite pleased
with the way they came out.


I used Revlon's Temptress for my pinky & index finger, I wanted a sheer
light pink but I didn't have one that I liked, so I went with this one.
&
OPI's Skull and Crossbones for the remaining three.
For the designs the white was a sinful colors nail polish
the name escapes me at the moment but any white nail polish will do.
The glitter was part of the Designer Disney Princess nail polish set
that was released in 2011, I used Cinderella's color.



           


So I used ice water to help dry them dry because I still had some other
stuff to do, I grabbed my pencil case and smeared some of the
polka dots.


I'm really happy with the way they came out. I'm
glad the polka dots got smeared where they did
because it isn't really noticeable.

Hope you enjoyed the design, thanks so much for reading..
til next time lovelies....
*hugs*

DIY Halloween: Storage Bin Decoration

I mentioned in my spooky vase post that my husband and I were re-decorating our bedroom, so I'm starting with our closet, with little touches here and there..
So we recently got a 5 shelf bookcase and we were able to move some things around, and my arts and crafts things were out and in the way so I said to myself ok I should get some plastic storage bins and keep it in the garage, so I was at work and someone left a black storage bin in my department and that's when it hit me, I could use these to store my arts and crafts materials and decorate the outside with a purple ribbon. So that's when we decided to do redecorate our room inspired by The Nightmare before Christmas... I talked to my husband about it shared my idea and he liked it, so I bought two of the bins the next day at work...
 
So for this storage bin decoration
you will need:
Storage bin,
ribbon,
decoration,
scissors,
hot glue gun,
tape
All of these can be modified to suit what you have.
 
Before
The first thing I did was take the ribbon and place some tape at the end of the ribbon to help me
decide where I want to place the ribbon.
 
                                             
 
 
So after I knew where I was going to place the ribbon, I took the tape off and frayed the edges of
ribbon..So it wouldn't be in my way...
 
 
 
So I put a dab of the glue on ribbon and placed it at the starting point and and applied gentle
pressure to get the ribbon to stick to the bin... I put a dab of glue in the middle of the ribbon
on all four sides..
 
the ribbon glued in place
 
So I took the pack of skeleton bones that I picked up at Party City for $2.99 and chose two,
when I filmed this I did not notice that when I glued the second one that it was bigger than
first so I had to take it off and place a same size bone lol..
 
 
So I glued both bones, and made sure they were the same distance apart and all that jazz.
 And here is the final product...

Meeko Inspired Disneybound

So Meeko has always been on of my favorite Disney characters, he's adorable, and he can
braid hair, every single time I've tried to braid my hair, I end up frustrated, mad and wanting
to punch something so having my own meeko to braid my hair would be awesome..

So I had the shirt in my closet for about a year, when I bought it, it was too tight so I started
buying clothes for other disneybounds and forgot about the shirt, I had the gray pants and
couldn't fit into them and just out of curiosity I tried them on and they fit, so I tried the top
and it fit.. I told my mom that I was able to fit into both the top and jeans, so to celebrate
my weightloss she bought me some boots.... (thanks momma!!)
 
Where I bought everything..
 
Black Beanie, Hot topic = $9.99
Top, Kmart = $14.99
Jeans, DD's Discounts $14.99
Boots, Kmart $34.99
Ring, Hot topic $4.99
Purse, Disney Store $24.50

 
I had to include meeko in the pic...
 
 
Ok so the necklace I got the
black chain at Disneyland with these
mickey charms, so I took off the charms and used the
chain, and the meeko charm was on a vintage
Pocahontas charm bracelet I found at frank and sons
for a $1.00 and I had my husband take it off of the bracelet.
 
 
For my nails I decided to go with black,
and painted one nail in Wet N Wild's Silvivor,
and after I had finished putting the top coat on
I realized I had O.P.I skull and crossbones and I
re-did the ring finger with that color. I like the way Silvivor
looks but I love the way skull and crossbones looks..
 
 
Here is a little collage I put together..
Hope you enjoyed this disneybound..
Til Next Time..
=D

DIY Halloween: Spooky Vase

Halloween has always been my favorite time of the year, and I've always wanted to have our house decorated year around with Halloween decorations, now don't get me wrong I love Halloween decorations, but my mom not so much.. So we're re-decorating our bedroom and it's going to be inspired by The Nightmare before Christmas, it's always been mine and my husband's favorite movie.
So for this DIY Spooky Vase
you will need:
 
Vase,
White Artificial flowers,
Small toy spiders
Black Ribbon
Scissors
Hot Glue Gun

Optional:
Spider Webs
Reminder all of the above mentioned materials can be changed
to your liking... =)
 
I started by measuring out how much ribbon I would need for the neck of the vase, and set it aside.
Next I lit a match and frayed the edges of the ribbon, so it wouldn't come apart while working with
it. I took the hot glue gun and put a little dab of it at the end of the ribbon and placed that on the neck of the vase, wrapped it around the neck and placed a second dab of glue on top of the first. I had it overlapping a little bit which is fine, this part is covered by the little purple bat I placed on top.
the ribbon & purple bat added.
I only needed 3 bunches of the flowers, so I set the others aside for another project. I then arranged
the flowers to my liking and set them inside the vase and set that aside.
I grabbed the spider rings and began cutting the ring part off...
 
 
Spidey rings before...
 
Spidey ring after...
 
I cut 5 but I ended up putting 1 more because
there were some open spaces that I wasn't liking.
Now grab that vase again, before you start placing
the spiders on the flowers look at the flowers
and decide where you want them to go...
And after you decide starting putting them on the flowers...
 
 
 
And viola! it's finished... a shot from above
 
I know I mentioned in the video that I wouldn't
be putting in the spider webs, but I thought I'd put
them on there just to see how it looked and I loved it,
so I kept it...
 
I was originally going to use a skull ring and keep it with the two colors, but it didn't turn out well so I went with the purple bat, I love the way the end result came out, this would look really cute for a Halloween centerpiece or if you're like me and you want Halloween year around this is a cute idea, and inexpensive, the flowers were .97 each, the vase was$1.00, ribbon was $1.00 as well, and the pack of spider rings pack was 2.99 at Michael's so all together I spent about $10.00 which was awesome!... Thanks for reading.. link for video will be posted as soon as it's ready... =D
Til Next Time...

Disneybound at Disneyland : Minnie Mouse

So last year I came across Disneybounding on tumblr, I don't remember
how I came across it but I'm glad I did
What is Disneybounding you might ask ?

Disneybounding is putting an outfit together inspired by your favorite Disney attractions and Characters by using clothing/accessories that you already have or buy from your local retailer. And that work with your budget. Since adults are not allowed to wear costumes at the Resort (with the exception of Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party) you're dressed up but just not in costume.

I am a huge Disney fan and I love the idea of it. I knew I wanted my first disneybound to be Minnie Mouse but I had nothing in my closet to disneybound as her... a couple of weeks before I found out about disneybounding I ordered a shirt with P.Sherman 42 Wallaby Way, Sydney. So I decided to go with Finding Nemo first. I had the shirt and pants just needed shoes and accessories. I found some starfish earrings and ring at payless shoes, both were on sale. Blue shoes at Target which were $9.99 and an orange handbag at DD's Discount for 12.99. And my mom got me a Finding Nemo ribbon to tie to my handbag..

So the first time I Disneybounded Minnie Mouse was at the Monstrous Summer event last June.
 
                               
                                       And the gentleman can also disneybound,
                                     my husband disneybounded as Mickey Mouse
                                   
 
                                           
                            As we walked by Minnie was about to take a pic with another
                            family she walked out and pointed to me and blew me a kiss.
                            Needless to say I had Disney feels...and teared up a bit.
                           
                            So I had the accessories just not the clothes so I had some shopping to do..
                            Red Polka Dot Top: DD's Discount $8.99
                            Black Pants (Canyon River Blues)Sears: $22.99
                            Shoes: Bongo brand, available at kmart, bought at sears
                            on sale for 9.99 using my associate discount I paid 7.99.

So here are the pictures my husband took on Sunday...
I made one change, I bought black skinny jeans
Walmart (Jordache) 17.88
 
In Minnie's Chair
 
Disneyland Resort Minnie has blue eyeliner
so I added some blue eyeshadow.
 
 
          Lovely Day for Tea outside..
 
 

In comparison of the Monstrous Summer Minnie Disneybound to the recent one, I like the more
recent one better. The first one seems incomplete to me, in the second one with my nails and my lipstick it looks more complete. I decided to change my pants because I wasn't liking that the first pair were a bit baggy..

 
I would love to see some of your disneybounds... follow me on tumblr  to share disneybound pics.
Thanks so much for reading.... Til Next Time...
