Artsy... yes I do think so

So I love making new things and using up supplies that would otherwise be thrown away or sit in a box for forever so my mom showed me how to make these origami flowers!!!


You can use any square piece of paper to make this.


 

You will need 5 pieces of square paper








 
 If you use an odd shape piece of paper just fold it in half to make a square and cut off excess paper












Then fold up the edges to the center and fold outward













It should now look like this ^^


 Pull out the fold and flatten so it looks like this ^












Flip over and fold over the tops that hang over












fold the outer edges in on more time




then bring the outer most edges together and it should look like this ^

Crafty...

So my inner inseperation has been dying to come out. I have been thinking about
Decoupage
a lot and have used Google images to get some inspiration as to what I want to do first! Only problem is I don't have the materials for the things I want to make. So this is my projects over the next few months (hopefully). This is what I have been thinking about all week! Below are some pictures and links that I found using Google. I in no means take credit for any of the below project pictures.

The little things in life is what we all really need to start appreciating! Like a cute picture text with your anniversary date written on a post to a work bench just because you are loved!
Taking the time to travel with friends and visit friends and have a great time!!! Hawaii now includes My boyfriend, My brother and our very good friend!!!

This is truly a trip of a life time!!! We all cannot wait to get there and hang out with two other pretty amazing people!!!

For those of you who are so caught up in the drama of life, remember that there was one point where you enjoyed what you had in front of you. Try to hold onto the happiness, let go of the misfortune, and do not believe every word you hear about the world around you. 

Rule # 1 Enjoy the Little Things
