things I'm into right now

Blogs I'm reading

This blog. Cannot get enough of A Beautiful Mess, I check it almost everyday. Great tutorials on everything from home decor, crafting and DIY to cocktails, hair and beauty, halloween costumes and adorable pups. They have a very cool aesthetic, mixing bright modern spaces with vintage and repurposed pieces.


Another great blog for awesome DIY ideas can be found here. Skunkboy blog follows one of the team members at ABM as she hangs with her kiddos, plays in her 90's cover band and DIY's.



If you haven't discovered Maskcara yet, you're welcome. This chick creates super easy to follow make-up tutorials that make you look like a pro.

I'm definitely into creating gallery walls right now. My next project will be a huge one going up my staircase! I want to use some inspiration from pinterest to mix materials and create a dynamic collection of pieces. I have a monogram canvas idea in the works, a chalkboard idea and lots of spray painting to come!
