Home + Work = Designing Your Home Office

home office

If you are an “employedprenuer” like me, your “office” is almost any where that has a seat and WiFi.  Lately, I have been thinking about creating a home office in my apartment. With limited space, due to my obsession with shoes, clothes and books, this project will not be an easy feat. But I am up for the challenge!

There are 3 things that my home office must be:

1. Comfortable

2. Functional

3. Inspiring

Sounds simple right? [Read more...]

Mason Jar Mania

cover final

Mason jars have been the “go to” container for beverages, flowers, food and more for the past few years.  And from the looks of it, it doesn’t seem that they will be going out of style anytime soon.  Here are some fresh and chic ways to use/customize your mason jars.

 

1. Glitter them!

 

Mason Jar With Glittervia

In my eyes there’s almost no way to go wrong when crafting with glitter! To achieve this look with your mason jars follow these 2 simple steps:

1. Dip or paint your jar with glue

2. Then, roll the jar in glitter and let stand to dry

2. Lace them!

 

 

 

Wrap delicate lace or doilies around your mason jars for this shabby + chic look. Add LED lights or tea lights for a touch of romance.

3. Paint them!

With this style the creative possibilities are endless!! Simply spray the INSIDE of the jar with basic spray paint; or, if you have the time (and patience) you can use acrylic paint and a brush to paint the inside of the jar.

4. Glow them!

 

 

Splatter glow-in-the-dark paint inside your mason jars, then light a black light and GLOW!

These are just a few ways to customize this staple piece.  Have you used mason jars? How have you customized them?
