My next DIY project.

I am going to attempt making this with one of the lamps I have just sitting in my room..
I'll show you the finished product once it's all done! :)
Maybe I'll do a tutorial.. who knows. Depends on how lazy I am. ha ha!

Here's what the lamp looks like now!....

I'm SO making this!

I found this recipe on this lady's (Amy) blog that I just randomly came across. So, I copied and pasted it onto my blog to share with all of you. If you would like to visit her blog just click the link! :)
Guacamole Salsa
1 lb. tomatillos (or more if you want it thinner)
1 jalapeno pepper (or more if you like it spicy)
1/3 bunch cilantro
1 thick slice of onion
1 garlic clove
1 avocado
1 tsp. salt


Peel and wash the tomatillos - they are usually found over by the cilantro & peppers, and have a husk on them. Cut them into quarters and put in the blender. Follow with the jalapeno, cilantro, onion, garlic, avocado & salt. Be sure to put the tomatillos in the bottom of the blender and not the avocado so it doesn't stick to the blade. You might have to help it start by shaking or using a mixer at first. But, once it gets going the juice from the tomatillos will help move the other ingredients around.


That is it! I was told it lasts for about a week in the fridge. I did notice that it thickens up in the fridge, so if you want it thinner grab a couple more tomatillos to mix in again. Super easy and so good!!


A little makeover..

Well, I got tired of my blog.. so I decided a little makeover would do the trick! :) Like I said before.. I am keeping my name.. I just love it... but something had to change... I was bored of my plain ol' white background.. so I spiced it up with this new "fancy" flowery background.. sporting bright colors. What do you think?! Too much.. or is it me? Leave a comment and let me know! Thanks guys and gals! 
:D

My dream wedding..

So, my darling best friend begged me to do a post about my "dream wedding.." so therefore I am blogging about just that! So be patient.. ha ha, It's kind of a lot. Hope you enjoy! Especially you my friend. ;)

The first place to start is...
THE ENGAGEMENT RING!
I have three rings in mind... I just can't choose!

My all time favorite.. which I wouldn't mind prancing around with on my finger is..
Yeah, I know right.. GORGEOUS. A girl can dream.. RIGHT?!

The next ring which is a bit more piratical.. ;) is..
Okay, okay.. like I said.. a girl can dream!

And the last ring I wish I could have is...
I just love the twistyness. 

The next place to start is..
ENGAGEMENT PICTURES!
Yep, I've picked out some poses I enjoy.. I'm awesome.. I know.





Now that, that's done..
WEDDING INVITES!
I'm sure one of these really will be mine...!



Next step..
WEDDING DRESS!
The wedding dress I really want I can't show you because I can't copy the picture.. but I wouldn't mind these.




I've got the dress now I need..
SHOES!
The first shoes are my FAVORITE!



Then..
THE TUX!
this includes the the tie/color..
The best man and groomsmen would also have these..




Well since the groomsmen are out of the way..
THE BRIDESMAIDS DRESSES!
These are also in the color.. just add sleeves!




On with the rest..
RING BEARER AND FLOWER GIRL!





I figured I'd let my mom and dad pick out their own clothes.. same goes with the grooms parents. :)
SEE I CAN BE NICE!
ha ha, yeah..

Well, clothing is out of the way..
FLOWERS!
Oh my favorite part! This includes my bouquet, the boutineers and the bridesmaids flowers.

Purple tulips for my bridesmaids. 



Now..let get to the yummy part!
THE WEDDING CAKE AND REFRESHMENTS!
Yum, yum yum..






All food needs a little..
DECORATIONS!
This part should be fun!










And I just couldn't forget...
THANK YOUS!
Yeah, yeah.. I guess you have to thank people.


I apologize.. I'm sure I've left plenty out of my dream wedding! :) But this is the main points ha ha!
HOPE YOU HAVE ENJOYED!

The BEST cleaning supplies EVER...

I have recently fallen in love with Mrs. Meyer's Clean Day cleaning products. They are AMAZING. They really do work. I promise. For example.. you know how when you have sticky stuff on the counter or where ever it is.. you usually have to scrub just a bit, well all I had to do was spray the counter-top spray and wipe it came off so easily! I was VERY impressed. So I would HIGHLY recommend  this product. They are all natural products so they're safe for you and the environment! Win-win eh?

For the kitchen I recommend  Honeysuckle. It smells awesome! :) 
(I wish they had this scent in the bathroom cleaners..)

For the Bathroom I recommend  Basil. Nice and minty! :) 
(This scent can be found with all the cleaners they sell)

These two scents are my absolute favorite! :)
(I have only tried the bathroom and kitchen cleaners.. so I'm not so sure about the laundry stuff.. but I'm sure they work just awesome!)

HAPPY SHOPPING! :)
