Soooo ummmmm we were just working on the summary post of all of our pin it and do it challenges for tomorrow – and we realised that we are missing #4! Poor number 4! *blush*

That’s ok – we had a restyle that we were going to post later on in the week – so instead here it is 🙂

Here is the pin that inspired us on Pinterest. We did a slightly different spin on it – we painted with old nailpolish instead.

And here it is…

Hi everyone!

So here is our 10th Pinteresting challenge for this Pin It and Do It Challenge. We are officially Pin Obsessed status! Now before we start – this is not a restyle project – but what girl can resist a tutu???

Here is the pin that inspired us on Pinterest.

This is how we put it together…

The how did we do it…

And now the end results – we have two of the cutest little girls modelling them for us – Nina and Brooke-Lee.

Brooke-Lee in the Ballerina Tutu Belt

Aren’t they just too cute for words? Say it with me – ADORABLE!!!

We couldn’t just stop there so we also made them matching hair pins…

Brooke-Lee’s Hair Pin

Please tell us what you think – we are planning to add this product to our Etsy store when we get it sorted. So stay tuned 🙂

Thanks again to Nina and Brooke-Lee and their beautiful mummies Donna and Marie!

Take care, until next time…keep restyling!

Happy Monday! Last week we had posted a vintage turquoise jumper/sweater.

Sweater Project

This is how we restyled it.

This also covers our # 8 and #9 for the Pinteresting challenge – Pin It and Do It Challenge.

For Pinteresting challenge #8 – neck cushion restyle – we were inspired by this pin and here’s our end result – so cozy!

Neck Cushion Restyle

For Pinteresting challenge #9 – sweater bracelet restyle – we were inspired by this pin and here’s our end result – it’s just too cute! We did a few but only pictured one of them.

Now it’s time for a new inspiration. This week it’s the pin from Amour’s wedding bouquet.. You just gotta love the bling and we want to see it used again in a new way.

What do you think we should restyle it into? Where do we start? Inspire us…

Take care, until next time…keep restyling!

This is our Pinteresting challenge #5 for the Pin It and Do It Challenge.

The pin that inspired us on Pinterest is Polka Dot Nails.

So we gave it a go…we used a BBQ skewer to make the dots…Shout out to Michelle for doing Amour’s nails!

Polka Dot – The process

And here is our finished version…

Red and White Polka Dots!

We loved it so much we did it a little more in different colour variations – which one is your favourite? We also found an easier way to do the dots via this pin – DIY Nail Art Tools.

Polka Dots of Many Colours!

We are getting just a little obsessed with the different nail art tutorials out there – Just look at Amour’s new additions to her nail polish collection!

Nail Polish Box Set

And because that wasn’t enough…

But wait, there’s more…

So you will see us start to put some of our own tutorials together – it’s just too much fun!

Take care, until next time…keep restyling!

Hi everyone!

So here is our first Pinteresting challenge for this Pin It and Do It Challenge.

Here is the pin that inspired us on Pinterest. Instead of using a t-shirt – we decided to restyle some baby bibs we had on hand. So silly – we forgot to take a ‘before’ picture of the bibs!

And here is our finished product…

Pinteresting Challenge #1 – Bleach Print Bibs

After we made these the crew at Oh So Pretty the Diaries posted a DIY on their blog. We just love the horse silhouette – so graceful! Check out their DIY tutorial – the DIY: SPRAY BLEACH SHIRT – it turned out better than ours! While we were writing this we realised that the inspiration pin came via Oh So Pretty the Diaries.

Take care, until next time…keep restyling!
