Sunday Funday...

I love reading blogs and browsing the topics and photos other bloggers post. It sometimes inspires me to cook, craft, or shop lol. Here are a few things that are either fun or interesting that I have come across recently:

Check out these delicious No Bake cookies at Lick The Bowl Good blog. They have a ton of other delicious recipes!

Check out this creative way to make floral stamps. Sometimes I wonder who thinks up these things!
Celery made into a stamp!? I found this cool idea here.

Lately I have been on a hunt for healthy recipes and here is one I found for a yogurt peanut butter dip:
Get the recipe here and give it a try, because I know I will be.
Then I came across this photo that makes me want to grab an old long sleeve tee and attempt to do this woven project.
Also here is another DIY inspirational photo:


^Love these mason jars splattered with Glow in the Dark paint. These remind me of the Justin Nozuka "After Tonight" music video with the fireflies.

More DIY to try:

And here is another photo that I found that I think is soo innovative and creative; using wine boxes/crates for flooring?!?! Love this !
That is all for little things I have come across today! Tomorrow I will be sure to put more things up and some stuff I have been working on!

Time is a tickin'

I have never been a person who is fond of watches up until recently. Last year my dad bought me a Guess white metal watch that I adore. It was between the Guess and a Lacoste watch but the Guess had a pearl face which I preferred. Unfortunately it has endured a bit of a beating and received a few scratches. I am now looking for a ceramic white watch because they are much more resilient to scuffs and damage.

Recently I fell in love with a rose gold watch by Michael Kors:
The price tag on this watch is $295
Yet I am really torn between the watch above and this one that has a bit of a bulkier feel aside from the gems, but I really like it.
The Price is the same for this watch.
This 3rd watch is a gold tone chain/cuff like watch that I think goes well with the trend of chains and studs that are soo prevalent in today's fashion. I think it can either be made to look sophisticated depending on the outfit worn, or even edgy if you are wearing clothes with gold studs and embellishments. Love it
This watch costs $225The final Michael Kors watch I am in love with is an acrylic horn watch that is a neutral color that can accompany any palette. I love the look of this watch but I am deterred by the fact that it is in fact acrylic.
The price is a bit much for the watch as well. I am not up for paying $250 for an acrylic watch.

Then I am IN LOVE with La Mer watches which I have posted in the past. Not only because they are different and unique and are full of options but because they also are trendy and similar to the very popular wrap bracelets that are being worn by everyone. Check two of my faves under the links. I was unable to add pictures to my page. But one is a neutral color with chain and the other is a PERFECT Nautical inspired watch. ADORE these!!

Finally is this completely Unique watch that is made out of wood. Yes I said, WOOD! Amazing and buy a watch and they will plant a tree! How awesome is that?!?! Pretty F'ing awesome if you ask me lol! Check it out:
It costs $119 and they come in different colors. Check out this site!

Well that is all for time keeping. Let me know if you have any watches that are worth a mention!
