June/July Around The Web

Happy Summer! Like I mentioned in my previous post, this summer has been a whirlwind of travel/making/ working on repeat and I'm feeling pretty inspired by all I have seen and experienced. I didn't get a chance to round up my June favorites, so here is a combined list of a few favorite things I discovered online these past two months. First up are these beautiful plaster planters by Paper & Stitch. I would love to test out their DIY soon! 

  • I am still continuing to switch out my home and beauty products to ones that are higher quality and made with more natural ingredients. I'm dying to test out Beauty Counter's mascara.

  • I have also heard great things about this Cocovit Facial Mist...

  • Before the Summer is over I MUST try this.

  • Flowers are one of my favorite things, and this pressed flower DIY is stunning.

  • Happy to read this article after my recent travels and recent world events.

  • Favorite plane read: A Darker Shade of Magic

  • This dress is most definitely on my wish-list! (I would love to purchase something from Pixie Market, I highly recommend browsing their website.)

  • This Fall I will be participating in a macrame workshop! Here is a peek at another one Think.Make.Share. hosted.

  • New favorite recipe.

I hope you all have had wonderful Summer adventures so far. Continue soaking up the warm (or in my case HOT) weather! 

July Think.Make.Share. Posts

July has been a crazy month full of wonderful travel adventures (LOTS of photos coming soon!), but I wanted to be sure to document two posts I was a part of on the Think.Make.Share. blog. I created a post all about making a road trip clipboard for kids, and I also participated in an embroidery hoop baby mobile workshop! Take a peek at both full posts over on Think.Make.Share.

Dominican Republic Trip

Last week I was lucky enough to jet off to the Dominican Republic to see two friends from college get married! We stayed at the Hard Rock Punta Cana and couldn't have asked for more beautiful weather.

This trip was a rare exception where I didn't take too many pictures, but instead relaxed and enjoyed the beach, pool and a snorkel trip. But I did get a chance to test out my GoPro and made a super informal video with my friends. I am still getting the hang of filming without feeling awkward, but I am planning on making a few videos when I head to Italy in a few weeks. I'm really happy I tested it out beforehand, I know the video will be fun way to remember the trip.  I hope you all are off somewhere sunny this summer!
