Lately I haven't been as inspired as I was when I first started with 'Project 365' on November 1st. So Tine and I decided it was time for another photo challenge! I came up with this fun list to take a photo each day in June, in a certain theme per day.
I would love it if you would participate in this challenge :) If you do, please leave a link to your blog via Mr. Linky (below), so we can all check it out. Spread the word and be inspired!
Hi guys!
I'm making a reappearance on the blog again - could that have anything to do with the upcoming exams? - to show you a super fun hairstyle I attempted a few weeks back.
It's a big hairdo you can achieve by rolling up your wet hair and letting it sit over night. And it doesn't even take that long preparing your hair. Curling my hair with a regular curling iron takes way longer and I would never achieve this look. Anyway, on to the result!

after undoing the strips of fabric. a bit anxious about how it would turn out
(as you can probably tell by the look on my face!)
A few hours later, the lovely Sophie Bell shot some pictures of my hair as well. Unfortunately the curls didn't maintain their shape that long, but I'm guessing that's my own fault since I didn't use a volume mousse or serum. Any recommendations for my next attempt?
In case you're curious, I used the tutorials from this & this girl. If you want to recreate this hairdo as well, please do. (And share some pictures!) It's so much fun having this much volume in your hair! (I wish my hair would be like that all the time..)
I'm off, studying some more and preparing the apartment for our two kittens (!!!!!) We're going to pick them up on Saturday, so more about them later. Expect a fluffy cuteness overload in the upcoming weeks!
Take care!
Hi guys!
How are you all doing? I can't wait to get back to the regular blogging routine, catching up on all the blogs I usually read, sewing & reading again, ... A little longer and I'm freeeee!
A few weeks ago, at our weekly sewing bee, I made another waterfall collar dress. I made one before in November, see it here. The fabric kinda looks alike, but this one is a lot shorter and therefore more spring & summer like, in my opinion.
What do you think?
I let the two other Elisses out of the closet for a little photoshoot. ps: look, I'm at the boyfriends apartment! I just love the color of these walls. And yup, that's an orchid! One green lady over here!
