DIY Nightstand Revamp

Hey Bettys! Guess what?! I spray painted my nightstand! 
It was my first major spray paint project and I think it was
quite the success! I was so excited I didn't even wait the
mandatory 4 hours for it to dry and had it in my room
within 2. And while it did make me infinitely happy it also
may have made me infinitely loopy. Watch out for those fumes.
Before:
After:
It took me about 4 cans of spray paint, but the real
genius of it all came together in the hardware. I didn't
really want to replace it so I stole this idea from a
previous post >Brooch Revamp< and went to town
with a coral nail polish.

    
This was a super easy and relatively fast project. Both
of which I value in a DIY. Mostly because I am both
unskilled and lazy. 
Hope you're inspired!

Instagram


Hey Bettys! I know I've been MIA for a while since my life
 has been making crazy looptee loops! So here, have some
Instagram photos to help pass the time. My vaca is nearing
it's end and perhaps then, when things slow down I can be
 a little more consistent. Sorry bettys!

Packing Day Outfit


[shorts&ring:F21,shoes:Payless,belt:Target]
Hey Bettys, just a short one today. It's packing day
so everything is cray cray. (Including my wiley hairs!)
Nevertheless I'm trying to cheer myself by wearing
bright colors. Who says you can't pack all of your
belongings and still rock a mullet shirt. I found this one
at JC Penny for $17. What a steal! Hope you're all
have a fantastic summer day!

DIY Neon Brooches

Hey Bettys! News flash: Neon is one of summer's most 
popular trends. So when I saw a new way to re-vamp 
old brooches, I hopped on the chance to incorporate more
 neon into my accessories. This DIY takes max 10 minutes to do and you probably have everything necessary to create it.


I feel like I'd insult your intelligence by adding captions to
 these pictures.So instead I'll sum it up in a sentence: Get a 
brooch, paint it with nail polish.
