pinterest payoff

Now here is something to get your creative juices flowing...

difficulty: 3- all you need is some fabric paint, heels, and time.

time:  couple hours (only because you want the paint to dry before your second coat (that is, if you do a second coat)).

outcome: a great way to spruce up an old pair of heels.  Make it even more fun by getting a neon pink paint and pair with mint jeans! 


pass or pursue?
no brainer- pursue!

difficulty: 1- pour, mix, spray = voila!


time:  total 2 hours, 5 minutes.  5 minutes of you getting the ingredients together and 2 hours to let the shower/tub soak

outcome:  after about 1 1/2 hours, I took a scrub brush to the shower and seriously- it worked like a gem!  I used seventh generation liquid soap instead of dawn (I use seventh generation since the product line is all natural) and it worked just as well as the reviews said!  The only down side would be your bathroom now smells like vinegar- I'm going to add an essential oil next time and see if that take cares of the "smelly" situation.


pass or pursue?

for reals? 
it's cheap, effective, and safe for kiddos.
pursue!!

kiddo style

It's Tuesday and my laptop has felt better- I know it probably has to do with the fact that I let Linden watch videos from it- but now it cannot pick up an internet connection.
At some point it has to, right?!


anywho- I have a little girl and I am obsessed with finding the cutest outfits ever!
Here are some great websites I've found along the way...



This site has it all; toys, decor, and accessories for your little ones!
check out this wallpaper- the cutest!!


another huge favorite of mine.  great prices for those hard-to-find pieces.
Each piece is uniquely designed so it's hard to turn down any article of clothing (hey, I warned you!).
I've ordered a few- they start from 2-3 years, it's gotta be a real big 2 year old.




tea collection
a total "go-to" for me.
This brand is carried at lots of boutiques and even nordstrom.
They have the BEST onesies for babies- comfy and stylish rolled into "one"!





city sprouts
This is one of my favorite stores in St. Louis.
Not only can you shop online but the store has so much more to offer.
If you have a special occasion or a gift to get- go to this place.
Located in U City- you can walk around and browse the other local shops, have some lunch or stop by for a frozen yogurt.




morley cats dress
thumbeline
every. single. thing. is adorable.
you will go broke just looking at this site.
sheesh.
outta control cuteness.





h&m
not only does h&m have incredibly affordable kids clothing, they are always right on trend!
I'm loving their hats for kids right now- they come in a variety of sizes, so if your little one will keep a hat on- I say to check it out!
I also have to say I think their selection of clothing is actually cuter in the boys section.
There is just something about a mini grandpa sweater that tugs at my heart.



So, there you have it.
The sites I stalk week by week, day by day.
Hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
