'you only live once'

this has been chris and i's motto for 2012.
we figure we aren't getting any younger
so we should live it up,
before we get married and start a family.

so far we've developed a monthly activity,
in january, we went to a lady antebellum concert, my first concert at that!
february, we went to see a play, west side story.
march, we road tripped it to chicago for a bulls games and shopping!
april, we were thinking minnesota, but that's still up in the air...

i feel upon doing these activities
and planning things together have
strengthened our bond with each other.
[let's hope he feels the same, lol]
so in actuality it's a win-win situation. :]
it's kind of been daring, inviting and adventurous.
chris and i love adventure!

i always anticipate what we'll do next.
you only live once. embrace it. :D

project bling #15

here's another bling project that
after so many hours... i finally finished!
(officially finished, 17 march 2012)

this idea came to me because chris is a huge bulls fan,
we're going to a bulls game in
chicago on 24 march 2012,
and i'm also trying to bling anything
and everything i can!
so if you have more ideas... shoot me a message!

i spent 50+ hours on this jersey.
only the front is done,
i believe that i will finish the back of it someday.
keyword is someday :]

here are some photos:

as you can see, this wasn't your average project bling!
instead of rhinestones and glue...
i used string and sequins.
i was really surprised with the outcome
because i've never sewn in my life!
i just youtubed 'how to sew on sequins' and got my answer there!

stay tuned for more project bling's
and check out some of the older projects!

don't forget to also stay tuned for pictures
of me in the jersey at the bulls game, too!
