Hi and welcome back to my blog. You know as always I like to thank my current subscribers for remaining with me,as well as welcome new readers and subscribers.I dont have any new projects to share with you today,but I wanted to come here to apologize for missing yesterday. I didn’t do anything the day before because I had a late work schedule as well as appointments. I didn’t want to just to chitchat about nothing because I dont want to bored you,(like I’m doing now).I did spend my day researching projects I would like to try and I’m still working on my room decor. In about two weeks I think I will have it complete the way I want it and will be able to share.One thing I will show you is this bullet type journal I’m planning to use as blog and video schedule. I currently using my travelers journal by May Design for research and basic notes,but this book I will use only for schedules,once I set it up.
So that all I have for today,and I will leave you as I leave you always,
Keep Crafting.
See small haul. I purchase the two small boxes in the back ,one is for Valentine present and the other was just for a decorative element. The blue boxes will be used for planner supplies.The planner supplies I have in a drawer where I keep my craft tools. Plan on using the pegboard to store the craft out in the open as part of the decor. I also purchased a canvas and paint. I’m planning to find a nice meaning for quote and put it on the canvas and frame it.
So as you can see this is the blank canvas, my planner page and the supplies I used. This week I’m using stamps, a few stickers and washi tape. A good tip for anyone who decide to use stamps, Wet ones or any kind of wet wipes are good or cleaning ink off your stamps. Some of my stamps I made with my mint machine and once you make them you pre ink them.
This is what my pages look like once I added the washi tape.
This is what my page look likes once I added the stamps and a few stickers. Usually during the day, I will sit down and start planning my week. When time permits, I pre-planner some of my next week in advanced.So I hope you find today blog interesting. And I will leave you like always
In my quest to redo my bedroom I found my self in stores such as Target, Five Below, Dollar Tree. When I pull everything together I will share the final outcome.Speaking of makeovers, I shared with you my bathroom makeover.
My bathroom wasn’t that bad from the beginning,but I need to organize under the sink. I added an stand which has a clothes hamper within the unit,added new shower curtains and it turned out nice.
The last thing I shared this week was my craft failures. I wanted to show that even when I sit down and plan, sometimes things just to go well, and its ok.
Sorry for the bad photo of the unicorn, but yes I ended up with some mints(impulse buy) a paper mache unicorn and what I went for my notebook.
I did how ever for this item.
It is a daily devotional. I have another one in New York, but I forgot to pack it because I usually read them both in the morning and the morning I left I didn’t have the time and rushed out the house without it UGH.
OK before I move on, yes that is 3 bags of candy. I like to buy their bulk candy to keep in my diy candy jar. I think I share this in a previous blog but here it is again.
The next item I purchased was an inflatable ottoman and cover. I sit at my desk a lot when I come home at night after work, either planning or watching videos, so I purchase this to keep by my desk to put my feet up.The next item is a 3 pocket organizer. I’m using this just for extra storage,because it hangs on the door and I can use it for items i can get to quickly and can be placed on a door and not be in the way. It also bring some decor to a door.Yes decorative and functional.
The next two items was just sort of impulse. I purchase a lava lamp, and a bank. The lava lamp because my daughter have one in her room and I like just going to her room a watch it. Its something about watching the “lava” movement that is so relaxing. I also purchase a shadow box bank,because I have some much coins all over the place I figure why not save it. The last place I went to was Dollar Tree. I’m so close to Dollar Tree where I live, it has become my go to for everything. 
I only picked up these items. The paint and brush is for the unicorn I picked up from Target. I picked the unicorn up for her and she wanted it painted black with a glitter horn. The little bucket is also for my daughter as a catch all for her little items, My other daughter is visiting me from NY and she just need someplace to put her little items that sort of decorative,if place in an empty corner. I purchased 2 because I going to use one to put Pebbles toys and blanket it in.Im going to make it more decorative in the future. The other item is just some bookmarks to use in my planners.
See this is a small haul. All these items will be used for a decor for my room makeover. So I dont remember if I ever shared this on this blog, but I recently brought a new diffuser for my room because the previous one was noisy. The one thing I like is to run it at night. Most of the time I use relaxing scents in it. So I purchase one that not only is pretty, its really quite.
So back to my decor. Remember I purchase this pineapple from Micheals 
I just wanted to have this item because i wanted it for decor and I also use it for storing small items,coins,hair pins, just misc items. But as part of my plans to redo my room,I wanted my pineapple to look similar to my diffuser. So I purchase the above items. I will share what the final results in an upcoming blog post. Well I will leave you know like I leave you always.
I purchase this picture from the Well of Hope thrift store for $4 dollars. I liked the size of the frame. So I dismantled the frame, gave the picture to my daughter(planning to reframe the picture in a later date). That was the easy part. Now lets see the fail.
This is the peg board I purchase from Lowes. At the time of purchase I had plan to cut it down to several 11×14 size., but after finding the larger frame I decided to go in that direction.
So I went ahead and cut my pegboard down to size and took my frame apart. You you when they say measure twice cut once, well that’s a rule for a reason. As much as I as used the glass from the picture to measure peg board, the measurements was still wrong. So when I proceeded to reassemble the frame and put the peg board in the frame I realize the for some reason the measurement was off. I had the right length but the width was off. So needless to say I have to purchase another pegboard. But this time I took measurement of the frame as well as the glass, measured it twice and will return to Lowes and and have it cut by a professional. I will show you how that turned out in a future blog.
So long story short, I only wanted the box part so I took the saying off, and proceeded to drill a hole in the box to add my clock component. Needless to say, the box turned out to be to thick and the clock didn’t fit the box.I was so disappointed I didnt take anymore picture, I just threw everything in my project box,(where I keep projects I plan to work on) and called it a day. Once i figure that project out i will share that in a future blog. Well I hope you see that even the best planned crafts can fail, and its alright to fail. My new motto is if first you don’t succeed try again and again til I you get it right,never let a failed craft get you down. I will now leave you like I leave you always,
As you can see, I purchase a lot of books about making you tube videos. I want my videos to be a platform on what I love doing. I wanted to research and return different takes on how to produce the best content as well as to get viewers. Also I purchase planners. Don’t judge me about the you tube planner for kids book, I just wanted to get all the information I can, and even if I had to look for advice from kids, Ill take it.
To make videos, I decided to try a camcorder that also take still photos. My first you tube video I did it with my iPad mini which was fine,because I wanted to see what it was like to make a video. I research this camera on Amazon, and according to the reviews this is the best inexpensive camera for non professionals and individuals starting making videos for you tube. The camera itself came with a remote control and an internal and external mic. I purchase the from Target. It also uses and sd card and come with everything you need to upload videos directly to you to or upload to a computer for editing.
Everything was just thrown everywhere and it was just a room to take care of our needs. I know, its not a room that we spend a whole lot of time in, but shouldn’t it look nice anyway.
So first thing i decide to do was tackle under the sink cabinet. That was the hardest task I had because there are 3 woman using this bathroom now. Me and my two daughters.Also side note: I ended up repurchasing these baskets in blue. I wanted to try to reorganize the cabinet in sections, cleaning hair care and make up and first aid.
In the end this is what I can up with. It is so better organized, still a little over crowed,but now you can find what you are looking for . The next thing i wanted to do was put some kind of organizer in my bathroom to free up my counter.
I like this organizer because I can put items we use everyday on it and it and it frees up counter space.
I added items like a shower organizer, new shower curtains,a basket to hold extra toilet paper and cleaning sponges, face rags and hand towels as well as a basket to hold things like foot soaker,toilet brush,plunger and just stuff that can end up on the floor. I also added some pictures I received from my uncle a long time ago.So that’s what my new and one what improved bathroom look like. I hope you enjoy this peek inside my bathroom decor and organization.I will leave this blog like always,
