DIY:: Neon Earring

Lately neon has been everywhere and maybe I'm a little bit late to be jumping on the bandwagon, but rocking a neon pink tee just isn't my style.  So why not start out small with bits and pieces thrown into my normal wardrobe?  

While writing my post about my most recent re-org. of my jewelry, I noticed that my once gold studs had turned a silver color.  I already have 3 pairs of silver studs so I decided to grab them & give them new life instead of just tossing them into the trash! 

I used Sally Hansen's "Whirlwind White" as a base, some cheapy Windsor neon polish for color & then an old clear topcoat to seal it in. 

Had to use pliers to grip the post & paint at the same time

Perfect NEW neon studs!

DIY:: Earring Display & Cat Eye Sunnies

Last night I was staring into my closet (like every night) and realized that my inspiration cork board was no longer.. inspiring.  I needed to update it somehow but I wasn't sure what that would be.  As I was pondering I realized how much my studs looked like thumbtacks and WHA-LA!  A perfect new home for all my little lovelies, earrings that is.  They were on a purple flower earring holder (don't ask) and were always such a pain in the butt to get too, but now there within easy reach and so pretty to look at!  Just writing this post has inspired me to do another simple DIY!

Plenty room for more!

I cannot describe how Obsessed I am with my new cat eye's!  Who's to say I'm not wearing them while writing this post?? ;)
