Blah

“Life is funny isn’t it? Just when you think you’ve got it all figured out, just when you finally begin to plan something, get excited about something, and feel like you know what direction you’re heading in, the paths change, the signs change, the wind blows the other way, north is suddenly south, and east is west, and you’re lost. It is so easy to lose your way, to lose direction." -Cecelia Ahern

Nobody Has It All Figured Out

Almost everyone has problems and puts on a brave face – don’t presume they have it easy. You see of each person what they let you see. You have no idea what they are going through or what they had to put up with to be in a situation that you can consider “easy”. 

This is universal – millionaires, students, the cool kid, the party animal, the introvert and everyone in between has more to their story than the superficial restricted one you see. Never dismiss them as having it easy if you don’t know the entire story.

DIY: Paper Flower Cone Bouquets

For the past month I've been really trying to eat healthy (low carb, no sugary snacks etc) so you could imagine how this colourful ice cream cone caught my eye. I love the colours, patterns and reference to the oh so wonderful ice cream (plus, it's guilt free). This would be a cute pick-me-up/apology gift idea (save money on real flowers- those can get expensive right guys?) or even great for parties.

What You'll Need: cones, x-acto knife (or scissors), glue, bright colour paper for flowers, green paper for leaves, and a cool patterned paper for cone covers (I like the stripes).Let me know if you try it out, I'd love to see how they turn out :)
