Gold leaf has been found in hair and make-up on the Fashion Week runways as of late. Realistic for the everyday human? Probably not. But art, beauty, and fashion don’t need to be realistic, just inspiring. I am pretty inspired by Honestly WTF taking this high-end trend and making it accessible.
The Design Pages took DIY gold leaf to a new level with this gold leaf canvas. What a big and bold statement piece for a room that needs a splash of design!
Oh Happy Day makes me want to throw a party!
Modernly Wed is a lovely wedding blog that has inspiring ideas even for the non-engaged. Even their instagram feed is chalk-full of cool things, like this neon geometric concrete planters that someone made with a simple paint job.
Lovely Indeed shows an excellent idea for personalizing a simple piece of furniture by adding a bold design with this DIY Union Jack dresser
I am loving Corinne Leigh’s most recent episode of Recreate on About.com where she visits the fabulous and stylish Justina Blakeney. Justina’s “jungalow” is endlessly inspiring and together they show us how to make our own customizable hanging planters. What an awesome project to do to prepare for spring!
Design Sponge does it again with a sweet DIY project to capture a papercut memento of something you love. Like a watertower to represent your favorite city or the silhouette of a puppy that you just adore.
