Craft Like You Mean It

This weekend I discovered crafting skills I never knew I possessed.

Friday evening took me to Philadelphia with my sister to help our other sister with some last minute wedding planning. She is getting married in two weeks!! It's totally crazy..

Basically I spent all of Saturday covered in glitter from head to toe and learning new skills. The glitter was serious, I'm going to be finding it on my things for months and I can't even imagine what my sister will do- it's literally in every crack of her place. The projects were super fun and creative but I can't show anything yet. After the wedding for sure. Not going to lie- I'm pretty impressed with myself!

I came back on Saturday evening to celebrate a friends birthday. We had fondue, an ice luge and chocolate cake shots. If you have never had one you are completely missing out on life. I should do a recipe post about them soon- your mind will be blown!!

On Sunday I met up with some peeps for brunch and then spent a relaxing afternoon finally getting a much needed massage. Groupon is such a great site for this. This past Thursday I found a deal at a place I've been to before for $35, a 50 minute massage and a mani-pedi. Sha-bam. Everything I wanted.

My Sunday evening  was then spent catching up on some TV, plus Chipotle,  which made for an excellent night. 

What were you up to this weekend?

Pottery Time! (or Party Time?!)

I don't know about everyone else but I had a great, relaxing, chill weekend. Mostly consisting of cleaning out my DVR... again. And as I said I was going to on Friday I went, along with two friends, to a BYOB painting pottery event. It was super fun and an amazing deal- for $13.99 we were able to choose from two bowls, four mugs or a plate to paint (I picked a bowl). And we got to bring our own alcohol. Below are the works in progress and then what they looked like when we were finished. I will post a picture of the final final outcome once we get everything back in a few days.


step 1: pick a piece of pottery and pour yourself a glass of wine!
step 2: paint, paint, paint- drink, drink drink
The finished projects! So excited to see what they look like once they've been fired...
I also found out some super exciting news from Leah over at Sunshine and Traffic Jams- on Saturday night the boyfriend proposed!! My bestie is getting married-whatwhat?!?! Congratulations to them and I can't wait to see what the wedding planning brings!

And since I actually need to work now- Happy Monday! Daylight savings is already kicking my butt this morning but I'm looking forward to the warmer weather tomorrow- until then..
