Hostess at Home!

Ukulele "Dress Up" #1

I play many instruments including the Ukulele. This is one of my all time favorites. I found a bargain on this one. I figured it was a little boring and could deck it out.

I took that plain white ukulele and pulled out some sharpies and started sketching. (Be sure to sketch your design on scratch paper first!) If you do mess up don't fret my pet!  Use a cotton ball to gently rub a little hand sanitizer on your mistake and it will vanish! 
 

When you are through coat it thinly with clear nail polish.
Viola!
Enjoy your fabulous Uke!

Stay Classy Friends,
Emma

Ukulele "Dress Up" #2

Follow up to my "Ukulele Dress up #1" I bring you "Ukulele Dress up #2" This time I'm decking out my little sisters ukulele!


This one is a lot easier to do then #1 but it's still just as cute! For this, we took her ukulele and pulled out my moms Cricket Machine. If you don't have one they are amazing! You can find them HERE.

We cut and applied the vinyl to get this:

I know you may be wondering "Jello? Why Jello?" Well lovelies, she thought it was the color of green Jello. Silly little Eve!

Toodles,
Emma

Dress to Scarf

So this cute thing I got from a dear friend who bought it thinking it would fit her. She got home and it was too small. She gave it to me thinking I might be able to use it. It was much to big on me but I loved the skirt pattern! 


Floral and fun I turned this into a scarf. Simple and easy not cutting or stitching! 
 

I loved the bulkyness the top of the dress added but if you would prefer you can always cut off the top and singe the edges to get a "flatter" look.

Love Always,
Emma

Traveling with Jewlery

Don't you just hate it when you go on a vacation and during travel your earrings and bracelets get all tangled up, separated, lost and un-manageable? It drives me absolutely bonkers! Simple solution darlings!
Necklaces?
Tape like this:

 


























Or use a small hair elastic to do this:

Earrings?
Use both backs to connect like this:

or for studs use a small piece of paper like this:
 

Have a nice Journey!
