meet.make.yarn wrapped bottles.

Enjoyed a Ladies Night-In of your own, and now you're stuck with a bunch of empty bottles? Well have I got an easy DIY project for you!

meet.make.beach day craft fail.

The day started off promising.... the weather forecast looked good, and we had plans to make amazing crafts all day at the beach!

We arrived at the beach to cloudy weather.... and it stayed that way. All day. 
Strike one.

We started by trying to craft some fun and cute wire rings. Inspired by this pin and this pin. Initially we thought this would be a quick and easy project. Turns out it was more complicated then expected. They turned out ok... but wouldn't you know it- the wire we picked makes our skin itch! So not really worth wearing. 
Strike two.

Guess what? HAYLEY GOT ENGAGED!

Recently, Kyle and Hayley jet-setted to Mexico to celebrate 9 years together...

And they came back ENGAGED!!!! Good job Kyle for keeping it a secret. 

meet.make.taste of summer.

Part deux of mml's Summer of the Mocktail.


Our inspiration for this bevie was the eccentric performance by the vivacious Ultra to Duran Duran's "Can you taste the summer." This was part of a burlesque show we saw while visiting Seattle. Never heard this song? Listen below! It's our summer theme!

The more I crochet the more I love it.... I feel like I am cheating on my knitting needles. Shhh...Don't tell. 

This pattern is basic and can be modified to suit your needs! So mix up different yarns, materials and buttons to get a look that works for you. 

meet.make.laugh... remixed!!

We have been up and running for 6 months, and are still learning the ropes of the blog world, but we thought it was time for a remix. Thanks to all our friends and followers who have joined in our adventures as we work the kinks out.

So when we say our DIY blog.... we mean our DIY blog. We realize it's not the work of a web designer, but we had a lot of fun sitting around a coffee shop and arguing over header fonts. We think it captures a little taste of all three of us. 

So... how'd we do? What do you think?

A ladies night in getting ready for a ladies night out!
