When you’re mildly obsessed with skulls, Halloween season is like a field day. In my mind, it’s prime time to stock up on Halloween year-round decorations for the apartment. I mean, from where I’m sitting at my desk, I can spot at least 8 of them around my apartment. And that’s not even counting what’s in …

DIY Pumpkin Spice Lip Scrub
Pumpkin spice season is back, and naturally, the Internet is freaking out. Personally, I prefer homemade pumpkin spice-everything over the classic Starbucks PSL for the obvious reasons: real pumpkin, less sugar, and personalized to perfection. Apparently, that preference of mine has even transferred over to DIY beauty products. This pumpkin spice lip scrub is crazy addicting, …
Wedding DIY: Floral Push Pop Send-Off
From beginning to end, a wedding has so much potential for DIY decor. Think about it: as the newlyweds walk/drive/skip away, guests often shower them with rice or confetti. Usually, there are bells and whistles and everything in between. Streamers are also a popular choice, especially since they create an awesome visual. But what about flowers? It …
DIY Stone Air Plant Holder
Air plants are too cool. You can’t deny it. For starters, they defy the “typical” plant, as they don’t need any soil to survive. They can also “live” in countless containers, making them super versatile. Plus, they’re real easy to care for, and only need to be soaked once a month. (Brown thumbs, I’m looking at you.) Talk …
Wedding DIY: Monogram Twig Necklace
Now that June is upon us, it’s officially wedding season! This year, I’ve already attended one, and have two more this summer. So, what better time to start rolling out the DIY wedding projects? If you’ve been following me for a while, you know that I adore these types of crafts. It’s basically an obsession. For …
Dyed Bandanna Choker DIY
Bandannas are my jam. There’s something so classic about that paisley print. (In fact, the hoodie I’m wearing right now has a bandanna back patch.) From bandanna scrap earrings to a bandanna scrap choker, I’ve been all about re-purposing this quintessential accessory. So, when I spotted these bandanna necklaces at Dannijo, I knew I had …

Another plant project? You bet. This is only the beginning, friends. If you head on over to Darice Crafts, you’ll find a planter tutorial by yours truly.

Clay Air Plant Holder DIY
My love for plants has always been strong. But for whatever reason, it’s been in full force during these last few months. Like, growing-radishes-and-chamomile-in-my-small-apartment kind of full force. This means 9873284 more botanical DIY projects are on the way, obviously! So, for this week’s craft tutorial, I whipped up a little air plant holder with air drying …
DIY Geometric Block Sculpture (Darice Crafts)
It’s no secret that I love a good designer hack. Extra points for when it costs next to nothing. Either way, it’ll almost always set you back a fraction of the price. You’ll also get a dose of inspiration that you wouldn’t have had otherwise. This is exactly why I’m obsessed with DIY. A while …
DIY Hi-Top Sneaker Anklets
Anklets are so underrated. There, I said it. Maybe I’m biased because I’ve always loved the double-anklet look. Exhibit A: DIY Rhinestone Anklet Set. Exhibit B: Sequin Ankle Straps. I’ve always felt like they’re the underdogs of jewelry pieces. It seems like necklaces and earrings always steal the spotlight. Granted, anklets can go unnoticed if …
Charmed Denim Choker DIY (Inspired By Free People)
When Wild Amor launched in 2010 as Studs & Pearls, my main focus was designer-inspired DIY projects. Most of the tutorials were based off of high-end items, but basically anything store-bought was fair game. It was the peak of the DIY blog movement, and designer hacks were all the rage! These days, I’ve broadened the …
