Living for Pretty

Celebrating all things pretty, happy and inspiring. From renovation stories, to recipes, decorating, parties and little life lessons, you’ll find a little bit of everything here.

Fruit of the Loom

If you like shots in the form of jello i found this really nifty idea. Orange Jello shots. Looks really cool, like some DNA project turned bad/awesome. They are orange slices except instead of the orange part you got Jello on the peel.

Orange Peel Jello Shots Recipe
From DrinkStreet.com

It looks really cool and they are way more fun to eat, this is how it’s done:

  • cut oranges in half
  • spoon out all the orange stuff
  • mix alcohol and Jello normally
  • pour Jello mix into balled out orange halves and let set
  • once set, cut into smaller normal sized orange slices

Get Happy, and Be Safe.

Bad Internet

Sometimes i feel like the internet is a black hole we keep falling into. There’s all those colorful links to click and we just keep clicking and retaining (or not) more and more useless information. I’ve spent many nights lost on the internet, clicking, browsing, downloading, facebook stalking, etc., etc. I guess it couldn’t be much worse than zoning out in front of the television right? i mean instead of watching celeb-reality we’re googling which is a bit more educational. I don’t know, i know i hate having my computer open for too long, it kinda sucks the life out of me. Anyways if you agree with any of the above and even if you don’t- you should read this cause it’s pretty interesting.

In the bag

I saw these bags at target and i wanted to get them for my mom for mothers day. It’s cool to be environmentally friendly, and pretty cheap too for $10.

Eye Candy

Lately me and my roommates have been enjoying a little royalty in the terms of eye candy.

Prince Caspian from the new Narnia movie is so dreamy.

Meet Robert

First off for those of you who don’t know me i went to an arts school during high school. So basically… i think art is cool and in fact i think Robert ParkeHarrison’s art is the coolest. I don’t think anyone could deny the beauty in these.

Hello Stranger

I’m not very good with blogs. I had another blog that I never posted on so I’m starting fresh with Hello Stranger. It’s for friends and anyone who stumbles upon it. I spend alot of time online looking for pretty things so I thought I’d start posting them in a blog to archive it all. It’s suppose to be light and fresh, nothing too serious or life pondering cause sometimes that’s a drag. I SHOULD be posting everyday (when my crappy internet is working). Enjoy
