sneeze page - tear tear
So as I am finishing up my blogs, I wanted to look back and reflect on some of the major topics I covered in the past few months. Honestly I thought I couldn't love decorating any more than I did when I started blogging. But after exploring other blogs, and challenging my mind to think of cheap and trendy style ideas, I learned that decorative can be anywhere from the clothes you wear to the art you paint. Decorating isn't just the expensive things people buy like nice chandeliers or expensive paintings. It can be so much more than that! So I hope everyone has enjoyed my blogs because I have grown so much from writing them. Like I said I have explored other ways of decorating that I never thought could be expanded! So here's some blogs that I am going to point out and remind you readers of that really pop out to me and that I really loved writing!
October 12th covered outdoor decorating. I never thought that I would be this interested in the outdoors! My creativity was extended to the indoors only, but after reading and exploring other blogs, I found that there's a whole new area to decorate -- and that's outside!
September 28th and November 30th talk about one of my favorite things, bohemian, Spanish flair, and tribal decorations! This has become my passion so go back and read them and remember how adorable these ideas are!

Favorite Must Have Product!
This product might come to a surprise, but honestly every home, apartment, dorm, etc… needs these! Every time I buy more I continuously find reasons and places to use them. They are the stick-on 3M command hooks. I started using these hooks for my bathroom and dorm room to hang up my shower towels. If you don’t have enough space in your bathroom for one of those long rods that can even hold out a towel to dry, then stick up a command hook! They come in different colors so you can match your wall color too. Then more ideas started popping into my head. When me and my roommates, and there are four of us mind you, came in from class every day, we always had our house keys and car keys laying out everywhere! It was a mess and complete chaos every time we tried to leave the apartment as we ran around trying to find our keys. So what did I do? Buy tiny command hooks to hang up on our wall next to the door. With four in a row right next to each other, we always had our keys organized and easy to find! I also started using them to hang up a majority of scarves in my room. It’s such a hassle to keep your scarves in your closet in a pile without it looking like a horrible mess. This way, your scarves are displayed in a nice order where you can easily pick out which one to wear in the morning. It keeps you from digging around your closet in that huge pile! Then I started adding hooks on my walls for belts and purses! It’s such a necessity I don’t know what I would do without them!

Review Post
Even though I am only in an apartment and can only do so much with our tiny outdoor patio, a girl can still dream. When I dream of my house in the future, whether I get it or not, I always think of having a beautiful outdoor place for relaxing. Even if I don't have a big backyard, I still hope to have an option to place seating outside so I can drink my coffee, talk on the phone, or chit chat with visiting friends. I love outdoor furniture and I am a big pusher for bringing inside furniture out.
This picture that I got from one of my favorite sites, http://blog.bohoglamour.com/2009/10/gypsy-decor-style-tips-and-pics.html can get a little overwhelming with her ideas and photos, but it is still a great site to get inspiration from. I love reviewing outdoor ideas even if it is something I would never do. So for all of you, even if it is unrealistic for you, continue looking and maybe you can take a little piece that you love from all of these photos and put together your little relaxing outdoor place for you!
The reason I picked this one, and the reason I absolutely love this site is because it's so bohemian. And I realize that by the time I get my own house, the style and trends will have changed and the bohemian, tribal, and hippie look will be out of season, but I can't help be super attracted to the comfort and relaxed feeling I get when looking at these pictures! I think that having a place to come home to whether you hang out inside or outside, should be relaxing and a place that you are allowed to let your busy stressful day leave your body. So even though modern may be the way you want to go, remember that homey and comfort may be something to consider to have that relaxing at home feeling!

Hand Soap on a Different Level....
This is more of a fun craft for you more than it is the kids! It will make washing your hands enjoyable and make any one of your visitors have a laugh. The first step is to take funny photos of your kids. These pictures are going to go inside of clear soap bottles, so if the poses they are taking are almost one of ‘I’m stuck and trying to get out!’ kind of thing, the funnier it will be! Take the photos and cut out around their bodies and getting rid of the whole background. Glue them onto white paper. Next, photo copy onto transparency paper which you can get from Kinkos for under $1. Cut this image out. Buy any soap bottle that is clear and roll the picture up and place it in the bottle. Buy clear soap or sanitizer and fill it in the bottle. You kids will look hilarious and give you a great laugh every time you wash your hands! This is also a great idea to make your kids want to wash their own hands even more if they get to look at themselves every time they do it! Placing these in the kitchen is a great idea so everyone can see them passing through. It's actually a perfect idea for any room with a sink in it! With such an easy and cheap way to create a hand soap bottle that you know no one else has you can't let this idea go!

Optical Illusion
So far I have been giving you guys a lot of do it yourself decorating ideas, but lately I have been providing art crafts for you kids. These crafts are all able to go up on the wall and create a decorative piece for your house all by itself! All of these ideas are perfect to go in your children's bedroom, their bathroom, or even the hallway! Even though every art piece is special, these ones are able to be created on a large canvas or poster board that gives any hallway some cute spice!
This decorative craft may be for the older kids in middle school because it can be a little more challenging than your average craft project. Here we’re going to do create an optical illusion. Draw an outline of a hand which includes half of the arm as well on any piece of paper. Do this very lightly because we don’t want to see these lines by the end of the project. Next, start drawing freehand lines straight across the paper. When part of the drawn hand is in the way of the straight line, “crawl over” the finger or hand with curves and arcs. The closer these lines are too each other the better this picture will turn out. As you get towards finishing, it totally looks like an optical illusion! Even though it’s more difficult than other crafts, it’s still super simple compared to what it looks like at the end! It appears as if it took hours to create, making any kid look like a professional

Big Ideas, Small Budget
Lace fabric is also one of my favorite things to create crafts out of. I have gone more into depth about the wonderful things and crafts you can do with lace on my website, www.collegeaptdecorating2.webs.com under the recommended products page!
You wonder what can I do with lace you ask? Well one I already put in one of my previous blogs that I bought lace ribbon and used it to tie back the curtains I made for my apartment. Being on such a low budget, this lace ribbon was a cute way to let the sunshine in! If you have any old necklaces too, they can be used as a classy way to also hold your curtains back. It’s a great way to recycle old non-used necklaces instead of throwing them out! Anyways, back to the lace ideas, one of my favorite ideas for lace is to use lace doilies to create a candle holder. First, you blow up a balloon. Then you use sugar starch and form the doilies around the balloon. After it dries, pop or prick the balloon and remove it from the doily. The Doilies will be in a round shape as it was around the balloon. Place a candle inside of it and you have created a wonderful glow! See, super easy! You can take this idea to a whole different level. Instead of just using a few doilies that cover the bottom half of the balloon, use them and cover the whole balloon where there are no spaces between the doilies. You can also use wallpaper glue instead of sugar starch if you prefer. So glue them to the balloon, dry, pop, and you can a ball shaped doily that you can hang from the ceiling!

Another favorite craft of mine that can be used as a decoration masterpiece is something where you will only need a large canvas, or even cheap large poster board, some tape, and any type of paint. Next, you tape out the child’s name on the board, and then let the children finger paint whatever they want around and on the tape! Before the paint dries, take the tape off and watch the kid’s expressions! It’s a great way to let the kids bring something home from a birthday party that parents will enjoy as well.
Let’s face it, children love balloons. So on the morning of their birthday, let them wake up to their entire ceiling covered with balloons! It is a great way for any child to start their birthday off excited! I’ll be honest, even I at the age of 21 would love this!
Kids love this idea, sorry this isn't very decorative but it's on one of my favorite blogs that you guys definitely need to check out, http://www.smallwordsblog.com/2011/09/21-kadin-and-colin/. This blog/site is a great one for personalized art for your house! but she had the idea of throwing in glow sticks into the tub and with the lights off, the whole room glows!
