Happy Anniversary!

  WordPress was nice enough to tell me that today marks 3 years of blogging on The Blush Chronicles! Crazy! To celebrate, I thought I would link up to a few of my favorite posts over the years. To start, let’s look at a few of my favorite outfit posts! This was our very first … Continue reading

Easy Pieces

Winter is getting to the point where it is nothing but cruel and bitter. I’m sick of my boots and coat and want only to wear dresses and sandals. But, until those lovely spring days show up, I’m sticking with easy pieces to wear. Slouchy jeans, silky blouses, fur vests, and maybe a little glitter. … Continue reading

Show A Little Love

source Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day! Are you ready to show some people some love? It doesn’t need to be a day reserved for showing love only to your significant other. Show love to your girl friends (Leslie Knope style), love on your pets, love on your family, love on your coworkers, love on everybody! Oh, … Continue reading

DIY Cutting Board Tray

This project was on my January Cravings List. I realize it is now mid-February, but the important thing is that it is finished! Woohoo! This project took all of 20 minutes to complete once we sat down to actually do it. The hardest part was measuring accurately. Let me know if you give it a … Continue reading

Lovey Hues

It’s February! 9 days until Valentine’s Day! And you know what that means? Only 8 more days to get a Valentine’s Day OUTFIT together! I began practicing last weekend with this combination. Heart lined jacket, maroon flowy skirt, tall black boots, and some neutrals to pull it together. What do you think? This skirt is … Continue reading

Snow Day

I don’t know where you live, but if you live in the Midwest you probably just got hammered with snow. We got around 12″ of snow in Detroit. For most people that means a snow day. Unfortunately, I still have to work, but if I did get a snow day this is what I do: … Continue reading

Winter Shades

I know winter is here and all, but something about this lack of snow has me down right confused. However, I refuse to complain. Hear that snow? You aren’t missed. But the small amount of snow that is scattered around has inspired the colors I gravitate toward when I get dressed. I can’t get enough … Continue reading

DIY Coffee Table Recover

Slowly I am checking off those three main projects that I wanted to accomplish in January. Two down, one to go. Over the weekend Timothy and I sat down and recovered our coffee table. This project has been on my to do list since the beginning of September when I gave our living room a … Continue reading

DIY Paper Valentines

Crazy that January is almost over. I won’t complain. The sooner this month ends the closer spring gets! But, January ending also means the sweetest day of the year is coming! Valentine’s Day! I love a chance to love on people and make mini paper crafts. So yesterday I pulled out some paper, a mound … Continue reading

DIY: Tube Scarf

Tube scarf is such an awful name. So is snood. I hate both. They sound awkward, clunky, and incredibly not feminine. Unfortunately, that is what this is. This is not an infinity scarf. This is a tube scarf. Regardless of it’s name, it is cozy, easy, and warm. Supplies: 2 yards of flannel scissors thread … Continue reading
