I've been so MIA for a long time.... I have been insane with school and trying to figure out degrees, my life, and everything really.

I been trying to start a YouTube channel and trying to use that as an outlet of stress! I love crafting and cooking so I think that is going to be a big part of my channel but we'll see where it takes me! I just made a DIY nail polish rack to help in my crazy addiction to nail polish and here is the video on my channel for how I did it!



I hope to be back with some new posts each week!
Xoxo, Heather

Nail Polish Haul!

I have a problem... with nail polish! It is becoming ridiculous but I honestly don't care because I love it and its not too expensive of a hobby. I bought some polish at different places so here they all are.


From everywhere! 

Essie 3 way glaze. Never tried this before but I needed a good new topcoat so I thought I'd give this a try.


Mom cleaned out her nail polish and was going to put them in the garage sale and I scooped them up! Awesome fall colors. Colors left to right ...NA, Bogie, Crepes Suziette

Top: Spotted these at UO and I have never tried there polish but they are quite beautiful! 
L to R: Dust and Afterhours 
Bottom: Grabbed this amazing green at Walgreens its by SinfulColors and I haven't tried this brand so when I saw the color I knew it was for me! It is San Francisco.
This sparkle is from Forever 21. They have some amazing sparkle polishes lately and I own some. I thought this would be beautiful with San Francisco. It is Green. 



Lastly I grabbed these mini OPI's. I collect the minis because i'm obsessed with tiny things! So I saw these and knew they had to be mine. They are amazing fall colors, all of them and I truly love them!

Love nail polish! 
Any recommendations?

HAUL!

Sorry I have been so MIA... i've been packing and packing and....packing. I moved back up to school for another year and have been none stop! 

I'd thought I'd do a little haul from Sally's. I stopped there on my way home from petsmart today. 


1. Tangle Teezer - this is suppose to be the best detangler brush out there. I have been having some issues with my hair lately and I am excited to try tonight after my shower. I hope that it works like it raves to! 

2. Aphogee Serious Care and Protection two-step Protein Treatment - I have some damage on the ends of my hair due to a curling iron that I have. So I purchased this treatment hoping it will do some repair. I'll keep you updated on this! 

3. One 'n Only Argon Oil Moisture Repair Conditioner - I bought this and plan on applying it in a week or two for an extra conditioning treatment. 

4. Orly Mineral FX collection - Stone Cold - this color is so amazing...can't wait to try this!

5. Orly Basket Case - my best friend recommended this color and i'm excited to try it! 

Look out for some updates with these products and NOTD!

Bed Head vs. Tresemme

Before our departure on our week getaway I told my boyfriend to grab my hairspray and as you can imagine he forgot to grab it. Half way to our destination I asked if he did and said we had to turn around. Haha we did not turn around but the first night there we went to walgreens. 

My all time favorite hairspray is BEAD HEAD hard head, hard hold hairspray. I have used this religiously for 4 or 5 years. It gives an amazing hold, non-sticky finish, and a flawless finish. I always get mine from a professional beauty store so I get it for $10 a bottle. At walgreens it retailed for $19.99, this is a price i would never pay for hairspray unless it was absolutely amazing and did something unbelievable! I will pay $10 for a hairspray that I really love but probably no more then that.







I looked and looked and I wanted something cheap that still looked like it would hold. I tease my hair almost everyday and it is trained lol I swear it really is. I am always able to tease it to the high heavens! People ask how I get it to stay and that high, I tell them I do it so often it really is use to it. So nevertheless I needed something to hold my teasing craziness and resist the humidity as we were going to be outside all day everyday.

TRESemme TRES Two Spray is what I settled on. It was $3.99 so cheap! and the bottle looked professional and sleek. I thought with that price tag there was no way it would really be that great and I thought it would do for this 3-5 day trip then I would just never use it again. Well I was WRONG! It is actually quite amazing! I purchased the 4 out of the there 5 stage hairspray. I was going to get the 5 as it is the strongest, but
I was afraid it would have that grainy stickiness and not be moveable, while weighing down my hair. The hairspray claims to have all day humidity resistance and the 4 is extra hold.


It really does hold all day and resist humidity. It even re-teases the next day for me without washing my hair and not respraying hairspray which I love. It is not non-moveable once applied and your hair does not look "hair sprayed." I really am quite impressed. The spray nozzle is amazing, it is tiny and the spray feels as if you are almost painting your hair and not your average hairspray nozzle. It also smells delightful!

I've been using this since I've gotten home from vacation instead of my favorite hairspray! Definitely going to repurchase this! I even have a TRESemme coupon right now for a $1 off one of their hair products, so $2.99 for a great hairspray, unbelievable! 

Give it a try, who knew!

Glitter and Cupcakes!

Glitter bottles at Michael's for $1. I want them all! 
PS. I always want everything the glitters, i want a whole shelf with these in every color! 


This new brand came out with these microbeads and they are so cool! I'm thinking of doing a framed monogram craft with these!

Love buying these recyclable bags when I grocery shop! they are very reusable and cute

I was feeling crafty after going to Michael's so I thought why not do something I love and make cupcakes.


I just used a box cake to make it easier, I really wanted to decorate more than bake so this is a good alternative. But frosting is a different story, that had to be homemade so I whipped out my kitchen aid and made some pink frosting! 

I used a tip to decorate and created these beautiful rose and flower toppings!

The frosting shows up more white here or cream but it was a light raspberry color.

Little flowers rather than roses on a few of them. Delicious half white half pink cupcakes!

I love baking and crafting! 
Any cute ideas or suggestions!?
