I can make this shit

I'm back from my mini-vacation to Vegas and have come back with a ton of new DIY ideas to try out. After visiting every luxury brand store you can think of at Caesar's Palace, I saw that many places had accessories that I can make and I don't have to spend a ton of money on it. Here are some that I saw that I want to try and make:

Marc Jacobs Las Vegas

Chloe Las Vegas

Not everything that happens in Vegas has to stay there.

Vacation's all I ever wanted

I'm off to Vegas this weekend with Bearded Man and a few friends.

Here is a photo of what I think of anytime I think of Las Vegas, and no, it isn't about that bro movie. 

Everything I know about Las Vegas, I learned from this episode of Roseanne and the movie Casino. So I have this warped view of Las Vegas. Also, I have only been there once and I was 18, so I can't really go by that because I couldn't experience all the things this city has to offer. Like gambling large sums of money away, and getting free drinks when you do it. 

Have a good weekend!
