Pinterest Craft time! 2nd installment!

                                        Redecorating my home and life one pin at a time!

This is my second installment of pinterest craft time. This one is fairly simple, I did it after I had just been on a long drive and I had drank one of those starbucks double shots of espresso, which had yet to wear off and it was around 11 pm, so what better than to put that energy to use with some simple pinterest crafting. Thankfully I had made a trip to christmas tree shop earlier and loaded up on some random dollar decorating knick knacks i.e. varied assortments of colors and sized tea lights.

This one I apparently was so excited about making it that I forgot to pin it, but simply another candle craft. Put the candle in with coffee beans and the  candle with warm the beans giving off a lovely coffee scent. So I obviously love the smell of brewing coffee, so this craft is a must. Plus our table was in dire need of a new centerpiece. I had originally bought a bowl for this but then I remembered I had this skinny long tray I had bought for another abandoned craft project.

step one: pour in your beans
step two: nestle in your candles
and you're done!! let the ambiance begin

I was really excited about my turquoise colored tea lights until I realized they were scented, a sort of soapy oceany scent that I didnt think would mesh well with the smell of coffee, but they looked so pretty, that I lit them anyways in hope that the smell from the candles would not be too pungent or maybe it would be like drinking a cup off coffee on the beach, the beach and coffee are two of my most favorite things so I could be creating a great scent sensation.




So the third picture was actually the first I took, with my retrocam app, there was actually something on the lens of my camera phone, making it look blurry but i thought it came out kind of cool

anyways, this one is simple but looks so sophisticated!
thanks pinterest for another great craft session!
