Instagram Wednesday: New York

Nate and I in front of the Flatiron Building in NYC! 

In other news, I have a ton of goodies picked up from our vacation to put in a mini book. I'm pretty excited about starting that and I will post my progress once I get going! I'm in the process of editing photos right now. There's a lot!

Instagram Wednesday: V is for Veggie

A "V" shaped carrot in my lunch today. Oddly shaped food is kinda funny. Don't ya think?

...until next time...

Instagram Wednesday: My Day

I have a new phone app and it's called Instaframes. If you don't have it, I highly recommend that you get it. You can take the photos on your phone and combine them in a collage. You can also import them to Instagram and play with the filters. It's awesome! 

The pictures today are items on my desk. These are a few things that I use at work. 

...until next time...

Instagram Wednesday: Tomato Love

This "love"ly shaped tomato came out of our little garden. I instantly thought that it looked like a heart and I had to Instagram it. 

What oddly shaped veggies has your garden grown? I would love to see them!

...until next time...

Eat, Drink and Make Stuff

As most of you know, I have a love for coasters. I admit it. It's probably a little weird but they are so much fun to make as I've said before. So, on this Sunday morning while laying in bed and still feeling a little off from the flu, I started thinking about other coasters that I could make. 

1. Chalkboard Coasters

2. Glitter Coasters (I couldn't find a picture of these that I liked...so I guess I'll make my own tutorial)

3. Fabric Coasters (if I only knew how to sew...I may have to involve my cousin to do this one. She just got a new sewing machine and she lives next door.)

4. Washi Tape Coasters

5. Monogrammed Coasters (I haven't really seen a handmade version that I liked...I'll make my own.)

6. Comic Book Coasters (Great for the guy in your life)

7. Paint Sample Coasters

8. Instagram Photo Coasters 

9. Marbled Coasters - this would be like marbling your fingernails. I've seen where you can do a glass ornament - why couldn't a coaster be done?

Now, what do you put on a coaster besides paper, glitter and chalkboard paint? Drinks, of course! So, what goes better with fancy coasters than fancy glasses? Nothing, other than something yummy to put in the fancy glasses but we'll get to that later.

1. Polka Dot Glasses

2. Marbled Glasses

3. Glittery Glasses

4. Chalkboard Paint Glasses

Well, I hope you enjoy all of these great ideas. I would love to see what you create! You can comment here or post on my Facebook page!

...until next time....
