Can you believe I found that chair on the side of the road? Well it didn’t look like that originally… I get this from my mom. I cannot tell you how many times we’ve been driving down the road and she would yell to my dad: “We have to turn around!” 80% of the time upon closer look

$1000 for the best Roommate ever..
Seems like a small price to pay.
Finding a roommate should not be taken lightly… Learn from me.
In my last year of college I managed to experience the best roommate ever. The guy who lived upstairs with a kid, who left pizza boxes everywhere and dishes in the kitchen for weeks. So I moved my kitchen doings to the laundry room…lets just say I wasn’t much of a chef. Then after he moved out, my landlord took it upon himself to move in and have friends over…Leaving me and Karen no choice. Let’s have parties and break lights (okay that was an accident). Then things in the house started disappearing: couches, stools, and the bathroom locked. That was an awesome 4 months of my life.
Which leads me to my next point: make sure you pick a good roommate and be very precise in what you are looking for like this guy:

I need a fanny pack
Spending $10 on a fanny pack could have saved me almost $1000. I just got back from Boots and Hearts. It’s a HUGE country music festival in the middle of an open field near Barrie, ON. Now I had heard stories of how wild things get;however, that didn’t stop me from showing up alone. I believe this was my first mistake.

toDIYfor – Bachelorette Glasses
These were made with the intention of being used at my sister-in-laws bachelorette… Yeah, that didn’t happen. Turns out most of the drinks were had while out at the bars… BONUS–a group of girls walking around with one in a white dress, sash, veil, ‘bride’ buttons, and beads will have an abundance of drinks bought for them. The girls LOVED these glasses, which were pretty easy to make. We ended up using them the day of the wedding at the head table! Watch the full tutorial here.

toDIYfor – Hammock Swing
This DIY could not have gone more wrong. There is a reason several beers were consumed while attempting to make it. Let’s just say, fishing line works as a good substitute for thread and my sister no longer has an emergency blanket in her van. Regardless, the end product was pretty sweet! Check out the full tutorial here.
