Friday adventures

Well, Friday Mandy and I took a little trip to the cutest corner in little rock. We were seeking some inspiration and fun and boy did we find it!! :-)
There was shopping, cupcakes, and lots of chatting about random things hehe

At our first stop, Mandy got a precious baby shower gift and had it gift wrapped!

We went in this amazing kitchen store and found some really cool taco salad bowls...which we used later that day of course!!

We found the coolest place ever called the Painted Pig. It's a paint your own pottery/ make your own jewelry/ mosaic place. It had amazing music and it was super cute. They even do parties and ladies nights....I think we're gonna have to try it out sometime.

Then we had cupcakes....they were so good that we ate them before we could take a picture of them! :-)

Oh! And we found this yarn store, which was heaven on earth!! I could have stayed there all day.

We also found some really cute decor ideas for our future shop...like this fabulous chandelier!

After our shopping escapades were finished we went straight to the sweatshop and started cranking out some frankensteins

Mandy successfully made a cute scrunchy scarf! She had her own system...it was quite hilarious

I finished this necklace made from an old tshirt and some beads!

I also attempted this scarf from the other half of my old tshirt...but it doesn't look as good as this picture.

All in all it was a great day and we have some great new ideas for Hello Ladies this year! We can't wait to make them happen!

Take a break...

Hi, Krystle here :-). It's finals week and I'm taking a break (Yea, it's 7:30 AM and I'm already taking a break I've been up for a couple hours already) from studying this morning. So far I have semi finished my research paper, I'm working on my presentation of that paper, I'm studying for my World Lit II final, I'm moving out of my dorm and into my house today, ANNND I have a Chemistry final tomorrow at 8AM that I don't even want to think about right now. Pray for me not to lose my sanity...my best friend's wedding is this Saturday too. Can you say "craziest week ever!"

That being said, I hope you're all having an awesome week. It's the first week of May and May means summertime (even though official summer isn't until June 21). And summertime makes me think of the beach!! :-) I'm currently painting my room a deep teal color that looks just like the ocean ( I LOVE) 
and when I finish I'm going to have one wall of beach/summery pictures. I've already picked most of them out and I wanted to show them to you!







I am so excited about this summer wall. I feel a little better just looking at the pictures. Don't you love the beach?? ...or just summer in general. 

Happy summer everyone!

A Little Inspiration

Here's a little inspiration. I know I need a little of that this week. I'm kinda obsessed with graffiti. I really would love to study it but I would need a place to "vandalize" first lol

These first few pictures I found via weheartit.com keyword: graffiti


These next few pictures are of a piece my bff Char and I did for our Senior video...it was so cool. In the video it was a sequence of us painting sped up to about 350% to the tune of the Beatles' Revolution. It was pretty much enjoyable.


I hope you're inspired and you have a fabulous week. By for now lovelies!

PART TWO
Where do I find most of my inspiration???? Other people's blogs. The blogs don't have to be ONLY crafts for me to be inspired, it could be the family, or the photos that inspire me to do better and be better. So here are a few that you should totally check out, some I have been blog stalking.....I mean following for years, and some are more recent finds. Have fun!
