Create a Straw Tassel Clutch for $10

Create a Straw Tassel Clutch for $10

Since last summer, I’ve been eyeing a Straw Tassel type of bag. I’ve seen a few in the stores but they were all between $40-$50 Canadian which was a little high for a bag that I might only use a few times during the summer. Creativity struck the other week while I was walking around my local craft store and spotted a ton of plain straw beach accessories. There was everything from clutches, beach bags and hats. I seriously had to hold myself…

Niagara-on-the-Lake Weekend Getaway Itinerary

Finding Your Style

Finding Your Style

Finding your style can be hard! When looking through my closet the other day I was trying to think of what type of style I have. I tried to pinpoint it but couldn’t. This got me thinking that we don’t always need to have one specific ‘look’ to us. When getting dressed for the day it all depends on my mood. If I’m in a rush then I’m most likely going to grab my favourite pair of jeans and pair it with a simple sweater.…

DIY Embroidery Sweater Tutorial | Coffee, Blog, Repeat

Coffee, Blog, Repeat! Is there a better sweater for a blogger? Nope. This embroidery sweater has been on my DIY to-do list for so long. I always wanted to try this craft but was also kind of scared. I thought that it was going to be hard but it ended up being super easy. Yes, it did take quite a bit of time to do but the end result was so worth it. I’m definitely going to try more of this type of DIY but…

The Best On the Go Beauty Products

The Best On the Go Beauty Products

On the Go Beauty Products I’m always on the go and usually find it very hard to sit still for a long period of time. This is why having products that are quick yet efficient to use makes my life a lot easier. Have you ever been trying to get ready quick and then you smudge your freshly painted nail? You either try to fix that one nail and no matter what you do it ends up looking terrible or you have to spend…

Well, it may be warmer this weekend but it’s not fooling me! I know another snow storm is right around the corner here in Canada. With a few more weeks of cold winds ahead of us, I wanted to try out the trending Bun Hat trend. I’m not too sure how I feel about it which is why I used an old hat to DIY one instead of purchasing one online. Also because I have no idea how to crochet so this is…
