DIY Crystal Shelf

This was really easy and fun to create!!! I went outside to collect twigs in the backyard..
* you need 4 x 23 cm, 4 x 15 cm, 4 x 7 cm lengths of twigs
* glue gun
* start off with 2 23 cm and put a 15 cm on bottom to start off the shelf
* then you just keep adding all 4 twigs on bottom and all 4 smaller twigs on the top part
* then you put on the back part using the other 2 23 cm twigs
* finish off with twisting a piece of rope on top part
Thanks to Jasmin Lunar for giving me this groovy project idea!!
My room is so cozy with the sunlight coming in..

Age of Aquarius

Just recently I wore this dress with my boho hippie coat and black floppy sunflower hat and a guy came up to me and said "you look like you came out of Woodstock 69!".  That was the best compliment ever!!!

DIY Boho Moon Holder

It took me hours to wrap yarn around the plastic moon holder, but I love it a lot!!! I do not like the look of plastic, this makes it a lot more boho and it was very easy to do, you can actually cover any plastic with yarn and all you need is a glue gun to seal it.

Boho/Nordic Christmas Trees


This is a tree with faux snow we picked up last year at Michael's when they had a huge January sale, and the colour scheme this year is green and gold with boho stuff added here and there.  This is the first time we put up the trees really early in November, we usually waited until end of this month to put them up but because we can't really go anywhere, this cheered us up!!  The other tree is one that we had for years, and we decorated it traditional and Nordic. 
I think both trees look very pretty! I also made snowflakes out of construction paper..very easy to do when you follow instructions online.

It's Just Another Day

Enjoyed the last days of summer in November by pretending I was going to an outdoor hippie festival. It makes a lot of difference to me when the sun is out and it's warm outside!! I feel creative and energetic.. I created another painting..this one is called Yoga Mystic.  And I made a friend with a woolly bear.  I haven't seen these all summer and all of a sudden in November, I found one. This one was quite friendly and I placed the woolly somewhere safe.  Now the sun has disappeared and we have hurricane-like winds, its pouring, and its grey and this kind of weather has a huge impact on me.  We haven't seen the sun in Southern Ontario for a while now and it is winter.  I get totally lazy and I sleep in late.  So, to combat the ungroovy vibes, we decorated two Christmas trees yesterday and danced to Christmas music and felt a whole lot better!! However, I long for hot climate with groovy palm trees and the sun in my face.

Boho Thrift Haul

Finally went thrifting..haven't been since March!! Goodwill was pretty good with groovy finds..this batik style print cotton dress which I accessorized with a thrifted vintage belt, thrifted brown boots, and also my recent thrift is this amazing chocolate brown suede jacket in really good condition for $25 and it's a Danier brand!! Wow, I was super thrilled to find this one!! It's got a 1970s look with the groovy buttons and pockets at front. Also love the 1980s pastel vase I found, I've been getting into the early 80s stuff lately.
This silky floral print dress (very early 90s Courtney Love style), and this groovy hippie skirt with lizards all over in sequins.
This groovy plastic leopard print tissue box holder and I absolutely love this celestial candle holder a lot!!!! I have been looking for this for such a long time and it was waiting for me :)

Summer In November

Warm sunshine day out in the forest, lake and park with my friend Lily.  It felt great to be out in nature again!! I wish the whole winter would be summer temperatures! I felt like a woodland fairy.

Hippie Green Beans For Dinner!

Vegan/Vegetarian yumminess!! Cook the green beans in sunflower oil with salt, pepper, and curry, serve on whole wheat bread and top off with dijon mustard (not sure if this is vegan?? probably not..oh well..so I cheated a bit here..haha!) It's so simple and healthy!!
