DIY: make-up organizer

Forgotten in a angle of a drawer i found this organizer desk, i guess its called like this.
It was near to become trash :P, but in my head came this idea. Let's use it for something.
You know a girl/woman has a lot of make-up, cosmetics. But there are only a few that you need near you when you get ready. I couldn't keep all my make-up, brushes, lipsticks and everything else near the mirror. There is no space. Keeping all in a box and then losing time, because I need to find my eyeliner..didn't like it either. Then I found this organizer, and it seems just perfect.
So, i washed it, cleaned it and put inside all my "must" make-ups. Those things that I use all the time.


Let me say it: its really perfect. Every morning I wake up early, I need to prepare myself and my daughter for school. So having everything so organized its very helpful.


As you can see, I first turn it upside down, there was no space above.
Then there are the brushes, eyeliners, foundation. First lever: lipsticks and face powder, second level: cream eyeliner and my glowing face pearls, third level: all eye make ups.
If you have some others idea and you want to share, I can't wait to find out :)

No more red!

I love red hair...I loved my red hair...but then I love changes and you already know this ;)
And honestly, its not easy keeping the red :)
So there I go, back to brown :) This is from december. 



As you can see in the "before" photo, there was no red anymore and that after 3 weeks.
For now, I will keep my brown with darker or lighter shades.




Which is your favourite hair colour?? How often do you change your colour or maybe you are faithful just to one??
Wait for your answer :)

Long vs Short

What do you choose?? 
For many years I chosed short, but now from about 3 years i chosed long. I love short hair, playing with it, but then i also love long hair and all the involved hairstyles.
I am happy that now, when I am in the mood for short hair I can realize a hairstyles that makes hair look short.

In the next phots, the haircut is the same...one day long and the next day short :)




This photos are from oct-nov last year, because now i am not anymore red.
In the next post, you will see the change.

Leopard Scarf (diy headband)

I found this leopard scarf in a drawer. I remember my mom gave it to me, but i don't remember when. I honestly didn't even remeber to have it :P. Maybe because i don't really use scarves, but now i found it and i had a great idea, in my opinion.
Let's create a headband with a huge bow. I like a lot the result.



Then i asked myself: why didn't I think before ?? oh well, now i know what else i can do with this beautiful scarf hided in a drawer.




Sock bun & bangs


Just realized the other day, that i never had a sock bun /ballerina bun with bangs...long bangs ;)
I must say, i like it a lot. I don't know maybe because with this cold weather i like my bangs...you know, usually in summer i almost hate the feeling of my hair on my face, forehead :P



I like so much this kind of bun, its really easy and quick to make.


So, what do you think?? Not bad, right ;)

New look Luna

Soooo....these days i was thinking how much i love Luna's hair (my baby girl)....her hair is long, wavy and shiny...i also decided not to cut it anymore (ok, just a little bit her tips).
Sunday, after the bath she came to me and tell me: mom, i want you to cut my hair short....and i was like WHAT!?!?!....Luna, are your sure about this?....and she was: yes, i am sure..they will grow after.....


For me it was a bit of shock, she is only 4 years old...how can she take a decision like this and be so sure and decided about it??  Ok..i said ok, let's do it!



So..i cut her hair...she loves it, because she feels better..no brushing, no tail....i love it, because i always wanted to make her hair like this, but i never had the courage...i was afraid more of her reaction after...and her daddy loves it...so we are all happy :)
I miss her long hair, but i love to see her sweet neck and give her kisses ;)

DIY: present globe

So...what can we do with an old plastic globe?? I used for my husband. I created a beautiful present for his birthday. But it can be used as a Christmas present or simply a present.
We need: 1plastic globe, glue, glitter, 3 photos


What i did?? I coloured half of globe with red glitter. I used glue mixed with glitter, but it can be found in stores glue already with glitter in it.


The pics we cut them round. We can easily use a glass for to shape the photos. Then we glue the 3 circle together keeping them tight.



That's all. When the glue on the globe is dry and the pics are strongly attached, we put the pics inside the globe and close it. 



Easy, right??? Hope you will like it and in case you will want to throw away and old globe, now you will know what else you can do..create something beautiful.
Have fun!!





My "happy new year" hairstyle


For this hairstyle i didnt do who knows what. Just some waves for volume.
A little bow clip behind and my bangs are all up :P.
