Over here in the Cali-parts of the United States, our Winter is having a bit of a personality problem thus leaving its citizens with no other choice but to keep the summertime tactics in full GO!-mode. (They got a new shipment of swimsuits in at Target the other day! Holy what the!! ITS JANUARY!
Talk about the golden state!) I also believe its all a lil Fukushima related but lets not get into that right now...
First up, lets bring out our contestants to these bright lights!
Being of mixed Latina heritage, my face is a lil unique. Its not round or a pear or a heart or oblong or square. Its me. And no matter what B.A.G's (Big Ass Glasses) always fit my face. I quit buying high-end glasses because I'm a Mom now and my kids like to throw my glasses off my face/head and I just can't afford that shit. Marshalls/Ross/TjMaxx are usual the hot spots for cheap stylish joints but trip out, 99cents Stores often carry Claire's/Icing-type accessories (at least the one near me does) and I've found some amazeball sunglasses there! These ones right here though are from a trade off I did with my sister awhile back.
The pic above is of some of my favorite CraftCrap supplies, provided by the G'Ma of course. I grabbed up this Aleene's Glass & Bead glue I had for this project as opposed to my favorite E6000 because the glasses are a slick kind of plastic and so are the flowers/beads. After a couple of days letting them cure, I feel like I made the right decision.
Onward GLUE!!!!
I added that lil iridescent ball/bead on the side but it fell off. Its all good tho, still look banging!
Freakin schweet right!! So many ideas start flowin when you get into this project. You suddenly lose the urge to want to spend hella $$$ on some cool guy specs when you can make these hot lil mamas for a fraction of the cost and be unique as a mofo! Plus, with all the savings from being a DIY aficionado you can treat yourself to a caffeinated drink and a selfie hug because yeah, your awesome like that.
Heres some new ones I got in the works, inspired by Krishna and sarape blankets:
Get to creating foos!!! AHHHHHH YEAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
Cuts & Stitches,
