I did it!

So you guys most likely noticed something different about my blog...

I changed my name! 

The whole French thing

just wasn't working for me... 

So I changed it to 

"My Happy Place..." 

I think it worked perfectly, because my blog IS

my happy place, and it consists of all the

things I love in life. Perfect right?!

I kept the URL the same though, so everything

isn't mixed up. 

Also, check out the poll on the sidebar! There's only a couple 

hours left to place your votes!

Coffee Frappucino!

 

Tastes just like the real thing! 

If you wanted to, you could

add chocolate, caramel, or butterscotch syrup

for some extra flavor... 

I preferably like plain

'ol coffee!

Homemade Coffee Frappucino

1-1 1/2 c. freshly brewed coffee

{it's better if it's been sitting in the fridge for a little bit so it's cold}

3/4 c. milk

1/4 c. sugar 

{you can add more if you like it sweeter}

2 c. ice cubes

Put it all in a blender and blend until smooth.

Enjoy!

P.S.

If you'd like to pin this recipe

on Pinterest, it's found

right here...

DIY Project- Flower Ball! {and a new grab-button!}

A couple weeks ago, I saw on a blog {Kandee Johnson}, an idea for a flower ball! This project was super cute, easy, inexpensive, and fun! Here's what you'll need:

• fake flowers 

{I ended up getting 33 bundles of small flowers for about .30-.40 each... If they weren't on sale for $1, this project would have gotten a little spendy!}

• any size styrofoam ball

• hot glue gun 

{I lost my old one so I got a zebra-striped one at Michael's for only $5!}

• glue sticks

• ribbon {If you want to hang it...}

1. Pull {or cut} the flowers off of the stems. 

2. Hot glue the ends of the flowers and press them into the styrofoam ball.

3. Tie some ribbon in a knot and glue to the ball if you want to hang it.

This whole project cost me $17.90...

-Flowers {Michaels- 10.90}

- Styrofoam ball {Michaels- 4.99}

-Ribbon {Michaels- $1}

ENJOY YOUR LOVERLY FLOWER BALLS! MINE IS HANGING IN MY ROOM, ABOVE MY BED. YOU COULD PUT YOURS ON A SHELF, NIGHSTAND, IN THE BATHROOM, OR JUST HANG IT LIKE I DID! 

Also, here is a new button I designed today... Please take one and post it on your blog!
