I know you all were just dying for more photos of my feet, right?! More importantly, let's focus on how amazing sweatpants are. I found this ultra-soft pair at Target recently and designed to upgrade them to these fun DIY graphic sweatpants using two colors of iron-on vinyl. Using a simple block letter font, the contrasting colors make the text really pop off the side of the pants. The "l[...]

Making wedding decisions has been HARD. Going into planning, I was worried about my ability to make decisions. Ultimately, the decision-making has been the hardest part for me to overcome, but I did finally decide to make my own hand-painted save the dates with multiple elements, colorful paints and custom stamps.
