By now, most of you already know that I love anything that mixes edgy with feminine. So it’s no surprise that I couldn’t help but make a ring inspired by a Tarina Tarantino piece, which can be found here. Priced at $176, it’s the perfect combination of spikes and crystals. I’m loving this combination…so …
I love simple things that manage to make a statement. Two color jeans are the perfect example – plus, they’re so easy to make. It’s also a great way to bring a little life to an old pair of jeans (because you know almost all of us have at least one pair we don’t …
If you’ve been reading s&p for a while, you know that I love using unconventional, unexpected materials. Maybe not necessarily weird (well, sometimes…rubber snakes, anyone?) but the more random, the better. This one brings in a popular item from the beauty world – Sally Hansen Salon Nail Effects.

This project brings back memories, in more than one way. 1) I loved lanyard when I was a kid, and I clearly remember making sooo many keychains and bracelets. 2) This DIY reminds me of S&P’s first ever project, the Braided Chain Bracelet, from last summer. And 3) My entire bedding set during my Freshman year of college …
You know you DIY too much when you look at a placemat and think of accessories…not food, tables or eating. I visited my cousins in Canada a few weeks ago and found a burgundy, pyramid-stud-looking place mat at the dollar store. It was only a $1.25 CND, and the USD conversions aren’t that far …
I love love love basics. Maybe it’s because they’re so easy to customize, or maybe because I know they’ll match with everything. Either way, I like my basics to be well made and comfy. If you’re the same way, check out Bella – I love the aesthetics of this brand. Their clothing is simple but …
I think you’d agree that Sharpie markers are a staple in every home (and office, and classroom, and studio)…well, I’m beginning to think their new fabric markers – Stained by Sharpie – should be a staple in every DIY’ers supply stash. I had an opportunity to try out these markers, and have created a few projects to share …
Nothing says summer like seashells, especially in a bright shade of coral. These earrings are handmade versions of the “SHREVE,CRUMP & LOW Estate Collection Coral Shell Clip Earrings“, found on 1stdibs.com. Super cute, but also $4,250. Obviously the 14K gold might have something to do with it, but I could personally care less …
I realize it’s July…but you know those chilly summer nights like to sneak up on us once in a while. I’ve had this navy blue Hanes sweatshirt for a while, so I thought it’d be perfect to make a semi-casual cover up for those nights. I also had some lace leftover from the Ombre …
I know I’ve been going kind of crazy with the in depth sewing projects lately…so here’s a simple, easy necklace. While running errands yesterday, I stopped by Dollar Tree to grab some packaging tape, & spotted this pack of 3 barrettes (for $1). I instantly thought of a mod, retro inspired statement necklace – …
Ombre. Lace. Flowy. Summer, anyone? I’m stating right here from the get go that this project is an adaptation of Mackenzie’s Lace Shirt DIY, over at Strokes of Serendipity. I have recreated this project with her permission! This shirt is more or less what Mackenzie made — I just used a different type of lace and dyed it. I’ve …
