As you have probably noticed I have posted a few DIY projects and I am in the process of more as well as fixing the house. So! This means I have been so busy and I like it because I wouldn't want my summer to be boring!</span><br />
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I am searching for nice kitchen cabinets for the cheap on either craigslist or the second hand store and boy are they hard to find! My parents have a very tiny kitchen, which they like because they don't need a lot of space. While I try to find cabinets I am also working on moving my mom's craft room into a larger room (my room). The room she is in now is sooo tiny and because I'm now in school I don't need a room anymore. So the small room her crafts are in now, will be turned into the guest bedroom. I'll post before and after photos for sure!! It's gonna be awesome even if it takes a month!! (:</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">Use something to cut the cube into a geo shape. I used a scrapbook spatula/scraper if that makes sense. It's a flat thin surface excellent for cutting. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">And so can you!!! I was inspired bygone other than pinterest!! I saw <a href="http://www.moredesignplease.com/moredesignplease/2011/7/5/diy-braided-necklace.html" target="_blank">THIS</a> necklace and said "I can make that!!" So... I did. I had left over seed beads and jewelry supplies so I didn't have to make a run to the store. t made my own version and wanted a thicker strand so for the first time ever I did a 5 strand braid. I looked up how to make a 5 strand braid <a href="http://www.kingsmerecrafts.com/page73.html" target="_blank">HERE</a> and picked a braid that I liked. First I played around with the different braids and ended up braiding the second example. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Start stringing your beads!!! String as many beads as you want your necklace long. This was the longest step for me. To string these tiny beads I found it easiest to just fish for the beads by holding the line close to the end for stability and "hooking" it into the beads as I tilted the cup.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">When you are finished stringing your first line, string another clam shell and tie three-four knots. Leave minimal gaps between seed beads so they are pretty tight on the line.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">These little lady's went to town! I previously posted that my poor plant in our front yard had been infested with aphids. The solution .... Lady Bugs!!! Bought these little ones in a container at Mclendon's for about $11... which I thought was a little high, but I went ahead and tried it. I was unsure about how long they would stick around and thought that they would fly away once released. I was happy to find that they stayed for about a week!!!! It was kind of rainy and cold here so they huddled together a lot. Most have now left the nest and hopefully they left me some kiddos!!</span><br />

Hopefully soon I will have a custom domain name... I am still pondering over what to name this blog.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I might just change it to - The Polished Pup</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I think it has a good ring to it don't ya say?</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">This blog was originally created for MadeJustForYou on etsy, but since then I have created another shop on etsy called UseMeAgainVIntage.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">This new and improved makeover will include both shops, DIY tutorials, and my everyday life. I hope that you will make this transition with me. It will be a fun adventure!!</span><br />

<br />
Woohooo it's the weekend guys! This will be my first easy peasy DIY project I want to share with you. It's so simple, all you have to do is find a lacquer spray paint and paint an old bookend to make it look new again. I found this really cool horse head bookend. It had so many scratches I decided I could hide them and make it look even cooler by painting it white.<br />

Tadaaaaa! Isn't it Beautiful! I have no space for it so guess what...it's for sale in my <a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/101219315/white-horse-head-bookend" target="_blank">etsy shop</a>. What I would do, to prevent the bookend from falling over, is place a small "L" bracket in the back so the books sit on the bracket for more stability.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This project is a reminder that everything has potential to look pretty again.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
If you have any bookend projects i'd love to see them.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Have fun!</div>

Didn't really notice them until now and it looks like an infestation! Only on one plant though. My solution...LADY BUGS. I bought some today at the local Mclendon store and hopefully they are the answer. Everywhere I read says that lady bugs love aphids so i am hoping that these lady bugs will save my plant. I'll keep you updated on how long it will take.<br />

With my fairly new discovery of Pinterest and the unnecessary amount of college fees, I have found that my DIY self will come in handy. The only problem is finding money for these amazing projects along with paying my rent. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">There are so many things that I feel I need, but actually they are just things I want. Doesn't this always happen. I know I need a bed, a desk, a chair, and a dresser. Necessary right? I have a desk from home that I will use. Of course there was a DIY desk I wanted to make, but i'll just wait until I have an actual house. I figured I could save space and money by making a bed frame with storage underneath. This bed to be exact...</span><br />

I can put baskets on the bottom to use as drawers. The only thing I plan on changing is the headboard. I found a tutorial on how to make a tufted headboard and it looks fairly easy. So far I have bought fabric and foam; all I need now is peg board and a button kit. I found clearance fabric in a coral color for $9 a yard. I had to buy two yards because it is thin and see-through. During the memorial day sale at Joanns I was able to snatch a little more than one yard of 2" foam for $15!!! instead of $30.99 a yard!!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There are a few modifications I would make, and when I do make it i'll be sure to post my own tutorial to share!</div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 16px;">MadeJustForYou has made and sold many items on etsy. To know the reaction of our customers really completes the order. We absolutely LOVE feedback and here are just a few of our favorites...</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 16px;">"Annie, I recieved the package on Friday morning. It is beautiful! Those are my daughter's school colors & went perfectly with her white cap & gown. You do terrific work... I will definately consider ordering more in the future!"</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;"><br style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;">-Heather</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 16px;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 16px;">"I was very happy with the resulting colors and all the work that went into making the stars for the lei. It turned out so nicely, and I was impressed with how sturdy it is, so it should hold up well if covered with other leis, as these celebrations go.<br style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" /><br style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" />I will contact you again, if ever I need another lei."<br style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" /><br style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" />Much aloha,<br style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" />Carolyn</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit; line-height: normal;">"The lei came out absolutely beautiful! My friend loved it and she got compliments all day, the day of her college graduation."</span></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">"This was my second time purchasing a lei from Annie, and I was equally thrilled with my own graduation lei as I was with my now-husband's lei a year ago. I got SO many compliments and it added the perfect special touch to my graduation gown."</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">"It was a delight working with this seller! After requesting a custom item, she had mock-up photos sent to me within hours and a listing posted in just a day or two. It was exactly what I wanted, and my fiancé will be wearing it when he graduates so I can pick him out of the crowd. The quality is great, and the shipping packaging helped it reach me safe and sound."</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">"I literally screamed when I saw the Lei! it was so beautiful in person. Thank You so much for the fast shipping Annie!! The little stars that came along with it was also a very sweet surprise. I will of course be a returning customer! :) "</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">"Thank you for your hardwork on the leis. They were a big hit at the event to kick off The Campaign for Hawaii's Children - Building the Future of Kapiolani Medical Center for Women & Children. I know you put in countless hours making each and every star and I want you to know we appreciated it! The leis were made beautifully and I would recommend you to anyone looking for a unique and different lei."</span><br />

Blogging is back on track after my first year of college. During my first year I felt my inspiration was being blocked off by facts and numbers that I needed to memorize. The creative side of my brain started turning and I felt a need to blog! There is so much that has been tucked away in the nooks of my brain that there is an overload. Over the past year im sure many of you have heard of Pinterest. IM HOOKED. It's so handy... especially when friends pin and you know what to get them. I love the DIY, home decor, garden, and style boards. There are so many cool tricks that you can find on that site it's unbelievable!!<br />
<br />
The etsy shop has a new look now if you haven't seen. I updated the banner! The photo is of our new stars that will be posted soon! They have a pink foil in the shape of the breast cancer ribbon.<br />
<br />
What do you think?<br />

<br />
<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Every february my dad always asks me what he should get my mom. My answer is always "I dunno." For many people it is hard to pick out a special gift even for christmas or a birthday. There are so many choices its hard to decide what the person really likes. <br />
<div>
To be safe all a man has to do for valentines day is pick out her favorite flowers and maybe throw in a box of chocolates. I think instead of the chocolates, pick out a piece of jewelry that can be personalized. </div>
<div>
So heres the plan...</div>
<div>
In the morning give her flowers and a cute heartfelt card. Throughout the day tell her how much she means to you and what makes her so special. Take her out to dinner and present her with your gift, which could be a necklace or a day at the spa. As long as you put your own personal flare she will love it.</div>
<div>
There are many different gifts to choose from and maybe a little too many. So I have made a list of favorites just for you...</div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;"> I think pottery would be a cool and different valentines gift. It is creative and there are so many different uses for them. I like the heart shaped dishes which could be used for a jewelry dish or candy. I love the lace bowl. It is elegant and so stylish.</span></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;">Journals are a great way to express your feelings and to give one as a gift it shows that you care. I think a journal would make a great gift! Maybe you can write letters to each other. One year on the news I heard about a couple who wrote letters to each other everyday. They listed one thing they loved about the other and anything that bothered them. It kept them together and made their relationship longer. I think its so sweet!!</span></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 14px;">I think the best gift would be an experience. Take her out for a hike. Take her out to a museum. Play tourist for a day and see places you have never been to. </span></span></div>

Hope everyone has had a jump start to the New Year! I know Im trying out new things... as long as effort is made right?! :D Watching the new has been sorta depressing with all the storms happening, riots, and shootings. Boy it's only been 14 days into the new year and all we are seeing are horrible things which is kind of discouraging. </span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#333333;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#333333;">Well, the new year calls for an Etsy Shop Makeover. I am soo excited to list new items because I have changed my photos. I think they look better than what I have been doing.... a little more consistent. A few more changes such as a new banner and business cards are seen in the near future. I am currently working on a new design for my business cards which is harder then originally imagined. I have an idea to use small business sized cards in envelopes with all our info on it. I want to be a little more creative with our business cards because it will make people look. I was shopping at paper zone one rainy day and I saw these small vellum envelopes. I had to pick them up because they were too cool! I read it and it said they "will fit business cards" and a lightbulb popped up in my head! That's what I'm going to do. Because we also sell cards, we will make our business cards like a real card except small enough to fit in a wallet. Now all I have to do is design it...the hard part.</span></span></div><div></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#333333;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#333333;"><br /></span></span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:verdana;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#333333;"> Here are some unlisted items...
