Ombre Obsessed.


I love ombre hair. I really want to get mine done like this, but I don't think my mom will let me. :( Maybe I can talk her into it...
If I got mine done, it would probably be more subtle, because I don't want to dye my roots. More like these:
But I love all of them! Even the bright, dramatic colors!
Okay, well thanks for letting me go off on a little rant about ombre hair. I hope your school year has started out great! Happy tuesday! :)

Spray Paint Adventures.

I have discovered how convenient spray paint is.  And now I really like it. 
You may have seen this on pinterest, but all you do is write or draw something on a jar with hot glue and spray paint it. So easy!
I didn't like my ipod case, so I spray painted it. :)

I was going to spray paint a medicine bottle and use it to keep my hair pins in, but it started raining. I might post about it when i'm done, though. I hope I inspired you to go spray paint one of your old knick-knacks and give it a makeover! ;)

Instagram Obsessed.

First of all, if you don't know what instagram is, click here. I've had my instagram for a while now, and I don't love it any less than when I first started. It's by far my favorite social network.
My instagram is @lynnmiriam. You could follow me if you like, I don't bite. ;)

Headband!

I spent all morning + afternoon trying to make this headband. First, I couldn't find fabric, then I measured my fabric too short, and when I finally finished, it looked terrible. So I started over. And it worked! The moral of this story is:
"Each time you fail, start all over again, and you will grow stronger until you have accomplished a purpose - not the one you began with perhaps, but one you'll be glad to remember.”  -Anne Sullivan
I was going to make a tutorial on this, but it was just too complicated. Here is an easy tutorial that you could try out. It's a little different from mine, but it still looks good. Hope your week is amazing! :)
