Check out some of my favorite blog posts and articles that I discovered this week!

1. Painted Leather Bracelet D.I.Y. from A Beautiful Mess – This DIY uses leather, but you can easily make it animal friendly. Use fabric scraps instead! Just layer them up to give yourself the bulk of the originals in this post.
2. Vintage Weight Gain Ads from Retronaut – These awesome vintage ads encourage women to have healthy bodies. It’s pretty crazy to see how the social norm has changed over the years.
3. DIY Dry Shampoo Spray from Hookable Designs – I haven’t had a chance to try this yet, so I’m not sure if it works or not. However, I love dry shampoo and am really excited to try out this easy, cheap, DIY version.
4. Blog Business Cards: What You Need To Know from The Blog Stylist – Whether you’re due to order a new batch of cards (me!) or haven’t ordered any yet, this is a super helpful guide to let you know what information is best to include.
5. Pretty Project from The Beauty Department – The reason I threw away my last curling iron was because I absolutely hated the clamp. It left funny creases in my hair that refused to go away. I should have turned it into a curling wand instead. This post shows you how to do just that.
