coral and blue necklace
To contact us Click HERE
you know..sometimes i plan outfits in my head...and i had just gotten a new white mossimo boyfriend t from target(best $8 ever spent...seriously. best.shirt.ever)(i own three...and i will continue buying until i own every color)and i wanted a necklace with a pop of color.a necklace i don't own.
so i used it as an excuse to head to Joann's
and here's what i came out with:
everything was 40% off....then i had a take 10% off of that...and i only used 1/5 of the silver beads...and half of the blue...
loving coral....it makes me happy...
i cut off the beads and restrung them --and attached them directly to the necklace using crimp beads
(you can go here to see a little more in depth tut on the basics of crimp beads)
i added a little pop of silver on every other one..
but wait...are you noticing that there are no blue beads? (If you didn't than i will deduct 15 inattentive points to you)
well..you see..I wanted to be able to have a coral necklace....and a coral and blue necklace..
so i made a little blue attachment
you can just clip it on when you want a little pop of blue
question:how many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop?how many pictures does it take til you get one you like?
we may never know....
for more jewelry posts you can go here!

Old Fashioned Butter Cookies Valentine's Day Recipe
To contact us Click HERE
With Valentine's Day right around the corner, it's time to start thinking red and pink!
We've got a great cookie recipe for you.
It'll make a lot, depending on the size of your cookie cutter. We ended up with about two and a half dozen heart cookies from this recipe.
That's a perfect for taking to a school party, the office break room, or to share with neighbors and friends.
They're perfect for parties and entertaining.
Old Fashioned Butter Cookies
1 cup butter
2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 eggs, beaten
4 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
Cream butter and add sugar and vanilla. Beat eggs and add to butter mixture. Blend well. Mix salt with flour and add to dough. Chill 20-30 minutes in freezer. Roll out on a well-floured surface and cut with cookie cutters. Bake on lightly greased cookie sheet at 400° for 8 – 10 minutes. Let cool completely before decorating. Store in an airtight container.
As for the frosting, we just used a simple mix of powdered sugar and water until the mix was the right consistency. Start out with 2 c. of powdered sugar and add your water 1 tablespoon at a time until you get it just right. Then add food coloring to dress them up a little.
If you prefer, use a ready made frosting and add your favorite sprinkles and other decorations.

Valentine's Day Wedding Tips & Ideas
To contact us Click HERE
Valentine's Day is popular day to get married. And why not? A day already filled with love and romance is the perfect time to start the rest of your lives together. If you're looking for ways to plan a Valentine's Day wedding while keeping the event fun and fresh and not too cliche, we've got some great wedding planning tips for you!
Use Red or Pink as an Accent Color
Instead of using red and pink together as your main color, try black and white with small accents of either red or pink for your attire and wedding decor. Overdoing it on the red and pink can look kitschy and old fashioned. If you're look for a modern classic, try grey, white and burgundy or grey, white, and petal pink.
Use Floral Centerpieces
Valentine's Day and flowers go hand-in-hand. For your centerpieces, try a floral arrangement or even a single flower in a crystal vase. Roses are classic, but stargazer lilies and daisies are also great choices. It al depends on the mood you want to set for your reception.
Avoid Using Too Many Hearts
Yes, it's a Valentine's Day wedding, but that doesn't mean you have to bombard your guests with hearts galore. For something more subtle try heart necklaces for the bridesmaids, wedding favors (like our Pinwhirls made with Heart Day Papers) with a heart-shaped pattern, or a single heart on the place cards. Just avoid the temptation to put them everywhere.
Use Valentines for Invitations or Place Cards
We love the idea of invitations and place cards that look like retro Valentine's Day cards. Depending on your personal preferences, you may want to choose something lacy and Victorian. Or if your style is more casual and fun, bring back your Valentine's Day cards from when you were a kid with well-known characters and gobs of bright colors.
Give Away Sweet Wedding Favors
Homemade conversations hearts, Godiva chocolates, sachets of personalized M&Ms. There are lots of different ways to sweeten up your guests' wedding favors.

6 Ways to Celebrate St. Patrick's Day as a Family
To contact us Click HERE
Because St. Patrick's Day is coming up next weekend, we wanted to give you some family friendly ideas for celebrating on March 17. Because let's face it: green beer and pub crawls just aren't for everyone.
How do you plan to celebrate St. Patrick's Day?
- Wear Green: This should go without saying. However, if green doesn't make regular appearances in your wardrobe, finding the right outfit might require some planning. Fun printed Tees are always a favorite. But if you don't feel like buying a shirt you can only wear once a year, there are plenty of options. Go for some fun (and cheap!) plastic shamrock sunglasses, an emerald cardigan, or go for the mismatch with some bold green socks.
- Make Green Treats: Shamrock shakes are always a hit, but you can make most anything green with a few drops of food coloring. Try green cupcakes, frosting, cream cheese, milk, and even mashed potatoes!
- Irish Cupcakes: Nigella's Guinness cake (can be make into cupcakes) makes a great dessert for St. Patrick's Day. Although it's made with a little bit of beer, the cake is moist, sweet, and very chocolatey. We highly recommend it.
- Irish Decor: Drop some Lucky Charms on a green tablecloth or fill a large pot with gold foil covered chocolate coins and set the pot at the end of your own rainbow. You can make the rainbow by hanging streamers from a door frame in color order or drawing one with sidewalk chalk if you plan to party outdoors. You can also search all Pinwhirls papers tagged "green" in our Flickr gallery!
- Make a Replica Blarney Stone: The Blarney Stone resides at Blarney Castle in Ireland, and according to old legends kissing the stone will give you the gift of eloquent speech. If you've got a large landscaping stone--perfect! If not, you can always create one out of papier-mâché, poster board or styrofoam.
- Serve Corned Beef and Cabbage: Corned beef and cabbage is a favorite on St. Patrick's Day. Foodnetwork.com has a great recipe compilation for making this Irish dish inventive. There are even recipes for corned beef and cabbage rolls and pizza. Yum!
