Wreath

Hello! Sorry it's been so long since my last blog post. Confession...I'm not the best at blogging! Today Ashley and I had a little crafting party. In case you don't know Ashley is seven months pregnant, and the doctor has ordered her to strict bed rest. I brought all my crafting supplies, and we worked on a little project for her baby girl's new nursery. Check out this cute wreath!

DIY Welcome Mat

Hello! I wanted to share a little DIY post with you.



Supplies:
Blank Door Mat (I found this one at Ikea for around $10)
Spray Paint
Masking Tape
Stencils



I started by spray painting the entire mat a solid color.


Allow paint to dry thoroughly. Then you can be creative and use the tape and stencils to make your own design. (I tried to use the blue painters tape, but it would not stick down. I found some masking tape, and it worked much better.)


Then take your other color, and spray paint over the top of your tape. Spray until you can't see the bottom color anymore. Wait until it's dry, and then remove the tape. Removing the tape is always my favorite part! I usually can't wait for it to dry, and end up with paint all over my hands!


Ta-Da! You have a new door mat!

The Lovely MRS Photography

We would like to give a special shout-out to our super talented friend, Megan. Meg, is a dear friend of ours, and we love her to pieces! Also, she is probably the cutest dresser I know! She was so kind to do our Shine Love photoshoot.
Here are a few of my favorite shots from the day...


Here is Meg in action, and I'm just standing there making people laugh!

Here are a few others samples of Meg's work that I love..



Thanks again Meg! Please check out the MRS Photography! Also, a special thank you to our beautiful models Michaela and Haley!
