its because acid BURNS.

so today was my saturday off.
MITCH had school in the morning.
then we went to the home depot.
i wanted to make acid washed mirrors.
inspiration
[anthro is amazing.]
well here are the supplies needed..
& here are the mirrors.
BEFORE
{the round one ended up not working.. it was to "new" of a mirror, & we didn't know how long to leave the muriatic acid on, so the frilly small one pretty much turned clear. 
BUT the other 3 turned out AMAZING!!}
AFTER
& some more pics....

its safe to say, IM OBSESSED.
the mirrors were SO easy to do..
but CAUTION
YOU NEED GLOVES THE WHOLE TIME.
the paint stripper & muriatic acid EAT you ALIVE!!

& it's been a couple posts..
so i think its time to unleash this baby.
you're welcome.

its because my husband loves me.

so yesterday
{labor day}
MITCH & i went to an antique mall.
i spotted my DREAM light.
it's a little bit bigger than a basketball.
obsessed.
it was priced for $70.. but the booth was 30% off.
so with tax and everything it was about $45.
freaking steal.
MITCH is amazing and re-wired the whole thing & hung it.
he's pretty much the best.
{love you mitch.}

its because hobos have style.

so people think im crazy,
but i think the best compliment ever is:
you look like you should of lived in the 70's
honestly,
the more homeless i look, the better.

whats your favorite style?

oh & btw.
mitch said he would DIE
 if this picture was not framed, and hung in our house.
i kinda agree with him.

its because i am sort of a hippie.


i got bangs. 
 i love them
when MITCH first saw them,
he said, "hill, you're bangin'!"
{i think that means he likes them}

what do you think?

ALSO.
me and my bfff breann went to creative escape.
we laughed the whole night and had the best time ever!
go to
