WEEK 31 FEELS:

The times when I'm super busy with work is always when I am itching to do my own creative projects but I do not have the time. When I have the time, I don't always have the motivation.... This week was busy busy and of course, I have lots of fun personal projects on my mind. Maybe also summer sparks my creativity? The long, warm, sunny days (my happy place) is instant inspiration! So here are my WEEK 31 FEELS:

What I’m Pinning - Visual Inspiration:
Move over flower crowns! ...although I will always love flower crowns... like forever. Lately, I've been wanting to play around with real flowers. It's been a dream of mine to create real flower statement necklaces. I haven't seen many out there and I have this vision. The image above is kind of an example-ish and closest to what I am thinking of. Oh Joy! posted a DIY flower bracelet this week that is pretty cool and reminded me of this dream. Oh, and these flower anklets were on my wedding Pinterest board since day one! Cause c'mon! How great are these? 

1+1 = My Fave Combos:
pattern + pattern - I have had an obsession with this for so long! I want to do a shoot like this SO bad! Anyone?!

I Made It:
It's been super hot this week, so I'm not going to lie... I've eaten a lot of ice cream. I really want to try and make these ice cream pops (using paper cups) from the July/August 2017 issue of Chatelaine Magazine. They were SO yum (and fun)!
