January Inspiration Board

Every month I make an inpiration board in my room and usually share it on my Instagram. You all really seem to enjoy it a lot so I decided to share my inspiration board here on the blog and go into a little more detail.

My "theme" I was going for on this month's inspo board was neutral tones and classic pictures.
PROGRESS NOT PERFECTION - I found this quote on Pinterest and it really stuck with me so I printed it out and pinned it on there. As I am writing this post I am about to enter my last semester of high school before college applications. This quote is a reminder that I cannot be perfect but I can try my best. {photo via Pinterest}
TRAVEL - I found out last week that I am going to Mexico for spring break and this little graphic was perfect for this month's board! 

DENIM SKIRT - Even though I am not the biggest fan of denim skirts I thought that this frayed hemline skirt was absolutely adorable! This photo also went well with the neutral theme I was going for. {photo via Pinterest}

2017 CALENDAR - I always see really creative ways to make calendars on Pinterest so I decided to try out my own calendar. This is just a page I ripped out from my 2016 planner. I plan to keep this calendar up on the board all year long!

GLASSES - I just kind of liked these tortoise glasses. I feel like they're so photogenic and remind me of Lily from Gossip Girl!  {photo via Pinterest}

LADY IN CAMEL COAT - I just love a good trench coat! This lady is killing it! {photo via J. Crew style guide}

EVERYTHING ELSE - The rest of the things on this board just goes along with the theme I didn't really put these things on here for any particular reason (except for maybe the ED stationary becaue they regrammed me this week!!!!!). 


I hoped you enjoyed this post. It was so fun to make this month's board; look forward to more posts like this each month! 

DIY: Binder covers from old magazines.

Hi everyone! It's Kayla.

    Today I am starting my back-to-school series on my blog. Over the next couple of weeks I will be sharing all types of fun back-to-school themed posts. I am starting with a DIY for your own binder covers.


These binder covers are an 8x10 take on and inspiration board. This is a super easy DIY and I had a blast making these! 

What you'll need:

• Old magazines, old agendas, or scrapbook papers
• Scissors
• A glue stick
• Lastly, some plain binders

1. Start by cutting out some of your favorite things from the magazines. This was my favorite part! The magazines I picked were about three years old so it was fun to see all of the different styles and trends from 2012.

2. Now your ready to glue! I glued my pictures (just realized you could totally use polaroids!!) onto a piece of 8x10 printer paper. Make sure to organize your page the way that best makes sense to you.

3. Slide your super cool binder covers into your binder and you're ready to go!

I hope you enjoyed this super fun back to school DIY. Be sure to follow my blog to see the next posts in my back-to-school series.

Thanks for reading!
