10 Pins Tuesday- DIY FAll

I think I'd blog more if I didn't have black holes like work, Dr. Who, and pinterest sucking up all my time... eh, probably not, lol, oh well.

For this 10 Pins Tuesday, I found a bunch of cute fall inspirations.

1. Hello cutest owl I've ever seen.

2. This cowl tutorial is cool and EASY... basically you just hack off the bottom of a sweater and hem the cut end.

3. I love these recycled leather leaf earrings.

4. cute and EASY string wrapped fall wreath idea.

5. love, love, love this modern dream catcher!

6. I'd need to learn some new embroidery skills... but isn't this awesome!?

 7. My favorite fall flavor? Apples! These "peanuty apple wraps" look delicious! I would probably substitute the peanut butter for sunflower seed butter.

8. YUM! description- Delicious breakfast: Apple Rings Dipped in pancake batter. Cook on a griddle and add cinnamon and sugar!

9. CUTE! and probably very yummy too!

10. Annnnnd, hopefully by our next bonfire, we will be drinking from these (recycled beer bottle glasses) Justin just ordered my first bottle cutter... hopefully it comes quick, I can figure it out, and I can go bananas cutting bottles, lol.

Upcycling Ideas for 10 Pins Tuesday

I think my most popular post of all time was one simply titled "upcycling ideas". I've been meaning to do more upcycling posts, and thought 10 Pins Tuesday was a great opportunity.

What can you upcycle???

1. upcycle a gumball machine into a fish tank

2. upcycle one of those goofy yard geese into an awesome lamp (you'll find it after you soak in the rest of the awesome in this picture!)

3. upcycle your keyboard

4. upcycle a hard-case/suitcase into a medicine cabinet

5. upcycle old, mismatched drawers into a whole new cabinet

 

6. upcycle old tires into a flower garden (we are doing this at my work... the two's room beat me to it)

 

7.upcycle coffee tables into a tall display shelf

8. upcycle vintage puzzle pieces into refrigerator magnets

 

9. upcycle old toys into planters

10. upcycle yourself with a biodegradable urn planter (yes, I realize this is kinda controversial, but I like the idea of leaving behind a tree rather than a tombstone.)

 I hope that's enough upcycling ideas for you!

10 Pins Tuesday- Inspirational

Sometimes pinterest can be so inspiring. I picked ten pins that really make me want to do or be or grow or sit and contemplate my existence.

1. This video makes me want to sing in a choir again. I miss those days! Seriously, just take the 8 minutes and watch it all. It's really well done.

2. This drawing makes me want to crochet. (a lot!) I've been crocheting again. I'm really pushing myself to get my spring/summer afghan done.

3. This pillow makes me want to embroider... but I'm too busy crocheting right now, lol.

 

 4.  This stencil makes me want to finish and paint my bathroom.

5. This makes me want to transform that ganky pallet in our garage into a herb garden.

6. This makes me want to pimp out an adult space in our back or front yard. Seriously, couldn't you just read and drink wine there for hours???

7. This makes me want to paint our coffee table bright yellow. (I'm kinda a chicken though... I sneak in my color in little bits. BUT I love this colorful coffee table)

8. This makes me want to be that artist I always wanted to be. I need some wealthy patrons to pay me to go walk in circles in the snow and make art. This is so cool... I die!

9. This makes me want to stand by the sea and soak in how small I am and how big God is.

10. This makes me want to paint. (I've tried a copy with water colors, but they were not the correct medium. I need to use acrylics the next time I try it.)

So there ya go! Be Inspired! Go, do, make, be, sit and contemplate!

10 Pins Tuesday

Yay, 10 Pins Tuesday again! Let's get to it!!! This time I did all things that I love.

1. I love to crochet. Drawing from Obey Crochet... so many more funny ones.

4. Owls- I have a whole board on Pinterest devoted to my owl love. This picture makes me fantasize about being a character in Harry Potter. I would soooo have an owl.

 

5. Monsters- I also have a board devoted to my monster love... this guy is the cutest!

 

6. Mermaids- Yep, you guessed it, I have a whole board for mermaids too. This one is from a vintage Golden Book version of the Little Mermaid.

 

7. I love this porch with it's awesome custom made slats.(I was kinda thinking something like this for our back yard...)

8. Make your own granola bars. I've really been loving granola bars lately especially Cliff bars... yummy.

10. And THIS!

 See? Other people love their dogs as much as me, lol. (P.S. a not-funny from this morning... Journey ran away, but Justin was able to get her home. She almost got hit by a car for real though, and I'm still all shook up about it.)

HOPE YOU ENJOYED THIS WEEK'S 10 PIN TUESDAY!!!
