Main Inspiration: Karen O’s head dress b/c is badass. Neon-ed up..


I hardly ever wear eye makeup, so I decided to switch it up for shows and raves.
Might be extreme but alot of fun and pretty easy.

A video ( of someone who can do it ALOT better haha)

Go the extra step and use some glow in the dark paint!
–Gonzo seems to approve–

I can spend hours browsing through these unique hand made goods!
Here’s a few of my picks:

So vibrant–yet earthy, My kind of combination check out her collection

Rad table-never seen anything like it, would love to have this in my living room asap!!
Check out his collection

Textured wall tiles–speaks for itself. This is def one of my favorite finds on etsy EVER!
Find more handmade texture goodies here!

Just couldn’t resist, I love donuts in all forms, and I must say I have a weakness for both jewelry and sweets. Don’t we all?
Check out her tasty creations

Lastly, silhouette frames. I normally feel corny when it comes to the subject of love/couples, but this is cute without the lovey dovey feel.
I would actually love to hang this over mine and Aaron’s bed <3 And of course I want one of my doggie Gonzo too!
Check her out her collection, she does custom designs such as these!
Anywho…until nextime!

Some fun finds at Savers
Dress: 4$
Straw hat: 2$
Belt: 2$
I know I’m starting to sound like an American Express commercial, but It was such a blast digging through undesired goods,
and well..finding things desirable! And for a whole outfit under 10 bones, I’ll take it!
Last weekend we took a nice little road trip to Big Bend National Park
and then proceeded to Terlingua.

- Some blame it on the heat

Everything was soo dry–and dusty and beautiful

- Feeling Elevated
And Last but NOT least the great Ghost town of Terlingua

surrounded by the sky
I thought the place had a LOT of character–UNTIL I met the locals
pretty–amazing people

Terlingua: Faces and places that will want to see again soon!
This weekend, I had a fun little project in mind and it required a jigsaw.
I wanted to make a necklace holder, so that I can finally get them out of the tangled mess they’re in.
I will admit, that this project has been the most challenging one yet, but well worth it!
Requires thick plywood, a jigsaw, wood stain, and a handy boyfriend is pretty helpful! thanks Aaron!

Here is where the idea is inspired from, the full diy guide. Check it out!
This heat has my thoughts elsewhere.. What better to do this summer than this? I will just be somewhat distracted until then..

Mother’s day this sunday..Why is it so hard to buy for mom on Mother’s day?! It should be soo easy, If your mom is anything like mine; she’ll LOVE it no matter what ..just because its from you! But for me–because she has done so much for me, no matter what I look at-It just doesn’t seem worthy. Spending some time looking around I started thinking “If I was a mom what would I like?” LOL I know, the idea is a little far fetched-but I love gift hunting-not exactly gift buying if that makes any sense.
So I found some super cute and super affordable “mom” gifts that I like:)

super cute flower head find it here

Easy and maintainable and definitely eye catching. find it here!

Haha I just find this one hilarious! Not your average “mother’s day” gift but I love it! find this here!

And for the modern day crafty moms-that won’t make you a sweater but they’ll create a few pillows or two!
Cheap and portable urban outfitters has a lot to choose from. find it here*
Anywho..this post is just a reminder of mother’s day this weekend if you haven’t got to it yet. Plenty of time to send in a card and get it there by then:) I know I’m bad at that..till next time!
It was a toss up between Lotus or Tiesto
Unwilling to pay the price for Tiesto we were fortunate enough to catch Lotus at Emos.
I wish I could have bottled up the energy, the vibes, and the music.
It was a venue with 2 outdoor stages and one inside, all playing live music.
Last night was the first time we’ve ever discovered the 2nd outdoor stage
And needless to say I fell in love with it
With a crazy storm going around us, I was cozy underneath the venue roof surrounded by everyone dancing.
I couldn’t differentiate the raindrops from the sweat.
This very moment was what I was looking for in Austin all along.
YES, Austin IS weird after all.

Looking through my pictures I can’t find 1 that even justifies the atmosphere.
And words can’t explain it.
Sometimes you have to close your eyes to see.

I like to call this a portrait

A “not so mellow mushroom”

I think I can find some wall space for this.
Speaking of wall space, me and aaron have been getting in the habit of being poster bandits
heres a few we picked up in the past couple days

This one is my favorite- you literally need 3d glasses for it and who doesn’t like 3d?!

How I feel sometimes: little girl with a big glass:)

And lastly, but not LEAST of course:
Aaron’s birthday candles that I made

Oh my love:) hope you enjoyed your birthday, glad to celebrate it 5 years in a row–♥
He’s one of the best parts of my day EVERYDAY
Gonzo:)
He’s a rad little unusually royal dog

- my cuddle buddy

- Best way to spend the day..
And yes ..this is how I have to check my emails but I dont mind it..

- Even when I don’t wanna cuddle
Just thought he would be the perfect to talk about- b/c hes adorable..dont’cha think?
Aaron’s friends stopped by Austin on their hitchhiking voyage and paid us a visit! It was really great to have their company, can’t wait to visit them in Portland.


Lolly gagging lol— hiking to matts tunes was pretty entertaining
Even did some painting together

- heres mine
Left one bird hanging upside down–maybe he blends in too well..no one seemed to notice..oops
