The future? I’ll still be writing and taking photos, I’ll have an awesome husband, great house, and I’ll be making things all the time. Baked goods, soap, candles, photos… just being creative, productive and happy.

Whoever thought that ‘Big Box Store’ and ‘Fashion’ could be mentioned in the same sentence without an ounce of sarcasm? Well, it’s happened, been happening for a while, and just seems to be getting better. On trend denim and fashion forward designer collaborations checking out with Q-tips and dijon mustard. Just like the good ol’ days of the general goods store. Well, maybe not quite that.
1970’s essentials seem to be gaining traction in 2016, and IFB Bloggers are sharing their favorite ways to make those looks current. Gift guides if you’re shopping in Tokyo or from the comfort of your computer screen. Also, some opinion on what keeping a New Year’s resolution looks like and what a little pampering can do. And I was especially excited by the color coral and Ankara prints this round up.
Thanks for all the submissions this week. You all make it such a challenge to pick only twenty.

After two months of staying at home, I decided that my main problem right now is that I need a hobby. At the very least, I need to go out and do things that don’t revolve around brand events or even dating (still working on that one, sigh).
This is me, actually leaving the house for once. I missed the bus walking up the block. THEN I didn’t take the directions seriously and then realized that my bus stop was the next one two blocks over. THEN I finally caught the bus. You know what? I could have caught any of the buses that run on that street. Also? Google maps told me to get off at the wrong stop. I was half an hour late.
On the bright side, there’s an IHOP on the same street as the craft studio. Yay!
I finally made it to Brooklyn Creative Studio and my teacher Yesenia set me right up. We were going to be making scented candles in jars and tealight size. Luckily I went to art school, so it wasn’t hard to get the gist of what was happening. I also lucked out and had Kerry of Love, Liesel as a classmate.
In no time I was melting wax, which was fun. I used to melt crayons on my Barbie dolls when I was little? Same thing.
I really enjoyed setting up the candles and pouring wax. I love knowing how candles are made. Mystery of how the wick stays put? Solved. How are scented candles made? I know all. How to make a candle a different color? I got it.
The payoff..
