Just This: DIY Body Scrubs


I absolutely love making homemade body scrubs. You can make them for a fraction of the cost of the drug store ones. The recipes are also very versatile because you can swap oil different oils, fragrances and salts/sugars. Exfoliate naturally!

Just This: Succulent Wreaths


I've seen these succulent wreaths pop up online lately and always thought they would be a pain in the ass to actually make. After watching this video, I've totally changed my mind. (Expect some OMG-I-MADE-THIS posts soon!)

Just This: DIY Mason Jar Lights


We moved into our new house this past weekend and I am dying to make some of these to hang outside this summer. Cause these totally scream summer time. Am I right?

DIY: Arm Knitting


Earlier last month, I decided to try my hand (er, arm?) at arm knitting. I love how chunky the stitch is and seeing how I'm a Beginner with a capital B, I figured I'd give it a whirl. After looking at 6 or 7 YouTube videos I finally found one I could follow. Maggie takes her time and explains each step. 


Super easy, right? The best part is that you can achieve different looks by using different sized yarn. For the one above, I used 2 skeins of Isaac Mizrahi's Lexington yarn in Irving. Michael's was having a sale so I also stocked up on the Downtown and Gramercy Park to make cowls for Christmas gifts this year. These yarns are making me want to KNIT ALL THE THINGS!
