DIY: Paint Splatter Shirt

Why buy a shirt that has that paint splatter effect to it when you can do it yourself?! I always see those shirts and stores and think "I can make this and could probably do a better job!". Also I get to choose the shirt style and paint colors!

Supplies:
Cardboard
T-shirt (I got a Men's undershirt)
Paint
Newspaper

Step One:
Lay down some newspaper. Put your cardboard inside your shirt *make sure it fills the shirt* to prevent the front and back from sticking to each other.

Step Two:
Shake up paint bottle, open cap, turn bottle upside down and squeeze! I shook the bottle to get that messy "splatter" look. *make sure yo squeeze lightly so you don't get giant globs all over the shirt*


Wait for side one to dry completely then flip it over and repeat step two!


Now you have a fun new shirt that was easy and inexpensive to make! Plus you got to personalize it, how does it get much better?

What's your favorite part of fall?

  It's the best time of the year! It's Fall!
*Finally! This summer in Missouri it was 120 degrees!*
I don't know about you but this is one of my most favorite times of year! It's just the right temperature outside so you're not sweltering but you don't have to a wear a floor-length parka either. Perfect weather for playing games outside, taking long walks sipping coffee and wearing cozy layers.
 
 Fall

Here are my top five most favorite things about fall:

1)Sipping Pumpkin Spice Lattes
2)Wearing my Frye Boots
3) Getting to wear knee-high socks
(most of the time with my Frye boots)
4) Being able to wear cozy sweaters
(most of the time with my knee-high socks and Frye boots)
5) Decorating Pumpkins!

DIY: Door Decorations

Have Miss Mel and I ever mentioned that Halloween might quite possibly be one of our most favorite holidays? Well it is! I think I can speak for both of us when I say when we're so excited October is finally here! Also here's my new door decoration!!

I feel that since I made my tombstone with construction paper and crayons I haven't jinxed myself in any way, shape or form. Happy October friends! We can't wait for Halloween!
