Now, onto today's post.
I decided to get a little crafty yesterday after working on internship/blogging stuff all morning & running my sweet puppy to the vet for an emergency visit for a swollen ear in the afternoon. Thankfully, after over an hour of waiting, the vet prescribed some medicine & the dog will be just fine (& I avoided surgery, which I thought she'd need).
My first project was to repair my broken picture frame that I love. I take this frame with me to college for my dresser in my apartment, and I update the pictures every summer without fail.
See broken frame:
Thankfully a hot glue gun what just what I needed to fix the frame & love:
My second craft was to spice up the initials I hang on my wall. They used to always hang above my bed, but the wall is too low there at the new house, so they face the bed now.
Before:
The ribbon:
Fold over the ribbon to form a loop:
Then fold over the other side:

So there you have it. I wanna know what DIY projects you've been up to. Be sure to comment & check out the link parties I'm participating in on my link party page.
