New Love: Juju Hats!
Has anyone seen these yet?!
I first saw these gorgeous hats on The Nester and fell in love with the idea, backround, and tutorial! Read On (:
Traditionally worn by Village Chiefs in the Cameroon region of central Africa, Juju hats have since gained popularity with interior designers, and are often used as an eye-catching accessory for the home. Beautiful bird feathers are painstakingly hand sewn onto a raffia fiber base/basket that splays out into a huge circle. Feathers are considered rare objects of beauty and a symbol of prosperity and wealth associated with the positive qualities of birds. When not in use, the Juju hat can be neatly folded in on itself for easy storage. A perfect example of fine, unique and skillful weaving from Central West Africa, Juju hats have featured in high-end decor magazines, such as Domino, Elle Decor and Inside Out, to name a few.
Most Juju Hats range about $400-$900...
and that would be why I found a tutorial haha
A gorgeous accent...
It looks so soft !
I want this whole room!
Check out the tutorial here !
All you need to create the above Juju Hat:
- Thick Wool Yarn (aprox. 1/2 ball for small, 1+ for large)
- Scissors or X-acto knife
- Poster board or Thick card stock
- Stapler
- Double sided tape
- Popsicle sticks or Chopsticks
LOVE IT !
Gorgeous DIY Wedding
Absolutely beautiful wedding of Elsie Larson, a writer from one of my favorite blogs A Beautiful Mess, Check out her blog if you haven't yet! Her style is fantastic. When I visualize my future wedding (very very long way off) I've always wanted to have a huge part in decorating, to reflect my personality, but also I feel like that creates memories in itself, and great keepsakes. Check out her DIY bouquets, boutonnieres, and corsages, to die for!
Colorful bridesmaids ? So cute!

Found this song while on Stumble Upon and absolutely fell in love with it. Most of you I'm assuming won't like it haha but it's so soul full, I love it.
Google Plus?
How many of you have heard of this yet? Well, it's a new type of Facebook from Google, and it's actually pretty cool. There are a lot of similarities to Facebook, but then there are some different features, like wherever you see a +1 button on the Internet and you click it, the article/picture/etc. will be posted right to a specific portion of your profile. I just got it yesterday, and I've been on & off it non-stop!Right now it's not open to the public, when it is I can't even imagine how it's going to blow up, but right now you need an invite from someone that already has it, if anyone needs an invite just put your email address in a comment below!

Last night of my freshman year in college.
It was so much fun, and I really miss these girls. I won't be returning to Edinboro University in the Fall, because my mother had a stroke in January. It's so hard, I'm going to miss school so much, but I need to be there for my mom.

I want to go back so bad. I went there June 18-25th, its about a five hour drive from my house, but so worth it. The first picture is of my best friend Paige and I on the boardwalk at night, second picture is the sunrise the day before I left. Have any of you spent time there?
