DIY: Holly Golightly Earplugs | Oh Lovely Lolo
“All the time, a disturbance! I get no sleep! I got to get my rest!
My goal this holiday season was to really try my best to make some homemade gifts. So far I’m doing pretty well with my wreath, some burlap covered candles, some personalized coasters and this past weekend I gave a try at some jewelry. You may have noticed how wrap bracelets are everywhere lately. Chan Luu bracelets are extremely popular these days. They come in singles and also in wraps.

Here’s how I did it: Supplies Needed: fabric (I used linen) sewing machine zipper (if desired) Step 1: Create your “petals”.Making Standard Binders Pretty
In my last post I showed you my new DVD storage. I love, love, love it! The binders are so handy right next to the TV instead of in the dining room hutch, its almost like I thought it through, or something. :) The easier thing to do, would've been to buy four of the gorgeous binders that Target or Staples sells, but the patterns are really not me.

At long last we are excited to share the process of how we created the Champagne Bubbles " Frou Frou Chandelier" for our boutique (aka Bubble Chandelier for those of you who want a simpler name for it)!
