Tutorial Tuesday: Cheap Valentine's Day Decor on the fly!

So, I have decided that I need to really really get with it when it comes to decorating for the holidays. Even the minor ones.

For Christmas, our house transforms into a winter wonderland of festive awesomeness. In short, it looks like the holiday barfed all over our living room. I've got probably 10 boxes of decorations just for Christmas alone.

Halloween, I have about 3, and one consists of costume parts and accessories.

Easter I've got a box or 2 with eggs, most missing their soul mate counterparts, and a few baskets we've collected over the years.

Valentine's day I've got a garland from last year.

4th of July I make red white and blue Jello shots...

Saint Patrick's day can suck it, I guess...

Like it said, I need to get with it.

Tutorial Tuesday: DIY Diaper Changing Pad

Before I start with this really easy beginner level tutorial, I want to say that this pattern was inspired by my super awesome friend Christina and her adorable baby Ella! I made her a diaper clutch a few months back because after I made myself one, I knew any busy mom with a big purse needed one. This is a rolled up changing pad with a Velcro closure and should fit perfectly inside her extra large diaper clutch.

Tutorial Tuesday : Flawless Face Makeup!

So lately I have been getting back into makeup. Having kids will take you away from things you once loved for awhile...

Anyway, I used to want to be a makeup artist... In fact that's why I went to beauty school, but I ended up loving hair and the rest, as they say, is History! (In case you didn't know, I am a hairstylist.) But I used to loooooove makeup... I would spend most of my paycheck at Sephora and MAC, and life was a very different time back then.

Tutorial Tuesday! Heart Garland

Last week my crafting group got together and decided to make an ever so adorable Valentine's Day craft that I thought I would share with you on this, Tutorial Tuesday! Ok, I know it's Wednesday... but we lost the USB cord to the camera, tore the house apart looking for it, and well... we found it! But now it's Wednesday night. Forgive me.
