It's that time of the year again that I like to Alcoholidays. When your weird uncle comes over and your mother gets drunk. Ahh.. family time. Regardless, gotta feel thankful for something right? Here's a low key DIY that'll get everyone in the mood.

I'll be the first to admit, Christ rising does not equate to bunnies and stuff. But once we're over the hump of Valentine's Day, every store brings out peeps and chocolate bunnies. So you know what they say, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em.
Read moreArmy Jacket Bling
I saw this jacket a while ago and as cool as I thought it was, $300 for a blinged out jacket was a bit too much. So when I saw this affordable version, I was like, DING DING DING! I could bling this out myself! So I did.

I don't know about you, but January is rough for me... any year. I always look forward to it, but inadvertently get disappointed. This January was no exception. I find that making things with my hands tends to help.

Happy 2016, everyone! Don't you feel like you can do anything in this year? I do! And what better way to start than with a DIY. For those who know me, you know that I'm a kitty fanatic so it felt (see what I did there?) appropriate to make this elbow patch. All it takes it about 10 minutes and voila!

Happy Christmas Eve, everyone! If you've somehow managed to avoid buying Christmas presents and lo and behold, it is now time to do so! Well you're in luck! You can make this awesome coconut oil scrub (which I have gifted before and gotten positive results) and it'll take you less than 10 minutes.

I don't know about you, but every year I am always stumped as to what to get for the men in my family and my life. I tend to err on the practical side, staying far away from useless gifts, but trying to keep it special at the time same time. It's a challenge.

Thanksgiving Burlap Table Run
Out of all the fall holidays, I feel like Thanksgiving is the most genuine. The reason for that is because the whole idea of it is simply sitting around a dinner table and being thankful. Unlike Christmas, there is no present giving, but simply enjoying everyone's company. This year, for the first time, I'll be having a Friendsgiving and cooking for my band of misfits. I wanted to decorate the house accordingly by making this burlap table run. ...

I used to work at this Japanese restaurant and toward the end of my time there, they put these new beers on the menu. Naturally, I freaked out when I saw Wednesday Cat because it had a kitty on the label. The beer hails from Yo-Ho Brewery and tastes similar to a sweeter version of a Hoegaarden. ...

I strongly believe that I was Mexican in my past life or will be in my next. I mean, I like burritos, tacos and margaritas to no end. Arroz y frijoles is my jam as well. ...

I am a big fan of puns. I like them in any form and I believe it's a fair way to gauge person's intelligence - that is whether or not they understand the pun. My Halloween costume last year was (sort of) punny - I was trying to be a literal version of a Gladiator in a Suit. Only Scandal fans got it :-(

As the holiday season in full swing, so is your ever expanding gift list. With so many options out there, I prefer to make my own gift tags. I got my stamps from Paper-Source last year along with the tags and the ink pad. The total cost of all the supplies is less $40 and it’s a gift(tag) that keeps on giving. Happy Alcoholidays!

It’s very easy to go tacky during Halloween. B and I decided to go the eerie and sinister route instead. We decided to make his apartment like an old apothecary. These bottles were super easy to make. ...
