(TIWIKBSA) Romantic Long Distance Love Letters
I think I’ve mentioned it before, but I’m not a big mushy person. That’s OK to be, right? I love my friends who are super thoughtful and caring, but I’m just not that way myself – even if I wish I were. This extends to my love life. Except occasionally, when I do something adorable, like…

Wearing Red Lipstick …and Rocking it
Being perpetually mistaken for a 17 year old (and then feeling like that was generous of the person) has me searching for ways to look more mature.

Christmas Light Wine Bottles
Not too long ago, I took on the project of putting a string of Christmas lights into a wine bottle. Now that it’s Christmas time, I bought some 50 light LED strands (about $6.50 each) and made a whole set of Christmas light wine bottles! They’re sitting on my window sill, circled with garland and…

Advent Calendar
In a burst of romanticism and creativity, I decided to make Kristofer his own advent calendar. After all, I’ve always loved them (though last year was the first time I ever had my own). So, I got out a bunch of leftovers (because the best projects are free) and got to work. I took one…

DIY Wine Glass Christmas Light project
A few months ago, I stumbled upon this awesome idea to stuff some christmas lights into a wine bottle and call it a day. Don’t ask me how – I wouldn’t even have been able to find this page again if I wasn’t such a huge Google fanatic who only uses Chrome and thus has…
