Bedroom makeover

That would be my room this morning;) I decided to decorate. Since I had left to go study abroad to SCAD, my mom took off all the photos and posters .... and well made my room pretty empty looking. So it was missing some personality to it. I searched through my things in the storage room and found all types of awesome stuff like paintings I had done a while back, fabrics that I bought and also were given to me from Senegal, as well as, a cartoon of me when I was younger. I also found one of the living rooms carpet and some lights :) So here its the make over outcome! $0 money spent.
The closet now has a curtain :) I love it! its probably my favorite part! it give it a whole "arab" feel.
This fabric's pattern was made by hand I believe is done with a stamp and a rock. It is also hand dyed! I love it! It was a gift from a good friend back in Senegal.
Gave the desk area a carpet, painting, drawing, and lights :)
added some fabrics to the night table so it could go along the african look.

Yep, I feel tired :P I also helped my mom with christmas decorations today... and now its time to pamper myself and do a facial mask I got at the FACE SHOP yesterday!

Day 2: Handy Tale/ Tail


Hello! ... parenthesis .... I think my favorite part of blogging is probably putting the titles xD! ... Anywaaayyyssss..... Today, I ran errands from 8am-1pm, fail.. I know! However once I got home i bummed for a while, then Chickie ( #1 blog fan) came over and gave me a birthday present and it was a ring... which turned into my day inspiration... by the way, thanks  again :D! loved it! <3  I decided to be handy and make a new jewelry holder.... It turned out quiet well! I made it all with things I found around my house, thank God my mom doesn't read my blog lol. I made a small "step by step" instruction if you would like to make something similiar :D

I believe the fact that need to be highlighted on this little project is that most things were reused! All I spent was 200 colones which equals less than $.50 so if you are interested see what you can find around your house! And don't tell your mom that is key hahaha she will find out eventually, can't wait! 
This is so you won't think am serious! :P Bye.
