Before & After: a package!!

What happens if you receive a package like this one?

It is ok, I mean, a gift is always a gift, and it will always be welcome!

But, what if you receive something like this?

It is really different!! I would say, even better! And really easy too! For example, in my case, I just needed {apart of the gift, obviously!}:

These are blue sheets for gifts, a cute box for a little gift where I put "my first keys" toy, a vase by cars, a gift card.. actually they are little details, but remember: details mark the difference!!

The point is try to make the little details just important! Starting on the box, as you can see, I wrote my nephew name on one of the sides, also with a blow made by me with ribbon I bought on Hobby Lobby.

Another important thing, the gift card! For this one, I used my stamps!

{cute}

With the keys and the box gift! 

I have a really easy tutorial on this point for an emergency gift and with no gift card. It is really difficult do not have a gift card, because you can make one with almost anything around you, but you can also give a gift by you to a person, and without gift card, he or she will no exactly that the gift comes from you!

How? Just think about something that really caracterizes you! In my case, any person around me could say you: leopard print! So here we go!

{gift, gift box & leopard print ribbons}

I actually had a "video tutorial" for you {my first!!}, but I saw it on the computer, and the light is really bad, so I think that just with the picture is enough!

{I have both ribbons around my wrist, so that´s why I know that if somebody receives a gift with these two ribbons, he´s going to know it´s from me!}

Here you have another cute way to "hide" the price of something:

{it´s something like: the price was just love, and I have sooo much for you!!!}

I know you wanna start, but it is not for you, I´m sorry!!

and here we go!!! hope you like it honey!!

ps: this morning I was on my way to the post office with the package to send it, and a friend of mine saw me from the other side, he told me "I was not really sure if it was you, but when I saw that leopard print tape I said: ok, she is" so... I think my sister will know it comes from me inmediately!!

Before & after: from a bedroom to a wardrobe!

Welcome to any girl's dream: having a wardrobe!

I'm sure any of us had, at least once in our life, in having a wardrobe. I always wanted one. I mean, I don't have thousands of bags and shoes {no, I'm not SJP in that ridiculous serie}, but I'm a girl, and as a good girl, I love clothes!!

So, imagine that you have something like this. What would u do??

BINGO!

A wardrobe!! When the other room of my home was free, I just wanted run from the hall to my room like wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!! My dream is going to become true, thanks God!!

An this is what I did:

I think that, just with the pictures, you can see I'm a bags, perfums & sunglasses lover, right??

Hope you like it!!

DIY: rings jeweler

Maybe you are a rings freak, and find yourself in a big trouble: you have so many rings that you're afraid to lose one in your collection.

You can buy a special jewelry box for rings in any cute store, or you can do it yourself!

If you follow this blog, you know that my BFF {E❤} came to visit me last January, and in that month, she turned older. I wanted to give her something special, handmade, by myself, and this was my idea. 

It's very easy, you just need to be patient, and you  will be able to create a home, sweet home for your rings!

What d'u need:

{a wooden box}

The rest is anything you want to decorate it. In my case:

{a scarf for outside & a mirror for inside}

{lots and lots of cute things}

And now, you just have to free your imagination!

For the rings, I found that an egg carton was a good idea to keep them: they will not be missed, and it could be a very original idea. So I painted it black.

I used the scarf to cover the box. Inside, I put: the eggs basket and I glued a cute blue necklace. I never wore the blue necklace, I never knew how to wear it, until I found it was perfect for the box! On the top side, I used a black Chanel advertisement to cover, and behind it, I put the mirror. I also put some letters & a ❤.

On the outside of the box, I was gluing cute things I found at home: accessories for the hair, buttons, flowers etc.

And here you have the result!

The box inside:

& the box outside:

Hope you like it!!! And hope to see on your very own jewelry boxes on your blogs, it's a good gift for anyone!

Before & After! photo frame!

{sorry for the cell phones pics... all I had in that moment}

How can you turn a boring photo frame as in the first picture, into a totally rock & cute photo frame like this one?

Easy!

What do you need?

Well, here's the necessary materials:

A photo frame (obviously)

A photo

Glue

Scissors

The rest of the materials, are optional: stickers, papers, scrap paper, threads, letters, loops, magazines... WHATEVER YOU WANT.

First of all, I suggest you cover the frame, because if you mess it up or do not like the result, simply remove the paper and you won't spoil the frame. But, of course, you also can paint it.

In my case, I covered the frame with a page of a magazine (truthfully). I used a Chanel advertisement, to be exact.

This is how it looked:

Once you have your covered frame, then you can start decorating!

I suggest you do not stick anything down until you've tried all the possibilities, that way you can choose what's the best!

And... voi-là! This is my photo frame for my baby:

The best thing about doing your own, is that there's not other photo frame like this one!

Hope see your own photo frames guys!! It's worth a try!

Let's Decorate!! Before & After

 {before}

{after}

Everyone (at least, if your a student!) has a cork board at home. 

You have two options: you can have a typical cork board (wooden frame, papers, papers and papers)

or you can have a completely inventive, original cork board! That's what I wanted with mine, and I think I got it!!! I mean, I don't think there's another cork board like mine, anywhere in the world. To make it, I used myself as inspiration, and here's the result!

Let's turn your bored cork board in a cheerful and only cork board! Here are some tips to make your very own cork board! What d'u need??

A cork board (obviously), and all the special things that appeal to you!

{in my case, memorabilia: pictures, tickets, stuff that i such as maps, stickers...}

I wanna share with u a detail from my cork board on this close up:

All of u know my love for maps (in fact, I did a post about it), so in my cork board, there's a map where I put points in every city I visit.

Other sources of inspiration to decorate your cork board, are magazines

Sometimes you can find beautiful letters and cute quotes like this one:
