Truly Sanctuary GIVEAWAY CLOSED

THIS GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED. Congrats Marlene T.! You are the winner of the Truly Sanctuary giveaway!! Lucky you! I will be contacting you asap!

Truly Sanctuary is a t-shirt company that was sick of cutesy graphics. They wanted to make kid tees that are hip and adult tees that are beyond cool. And my fam wanted in on it. 

Truly Sanctuary let us choose our favorite tees to try out. Adrienne picked the brunette mermaid t-shirt that she thought looked just like her. I picked the Bill Murray graphic tee, for obvious reasons, and William wanted the Nintendo for life tee. 

Let me just tell you, this Bill Murray tee and I are now madly in love with each other. I heart it so hard. Not just because the Billster is my hero, but because this t-shirt is the softest ish I've ever worn. Like I could be homeless and pretty much live in this shirt, having to wear it over and over again. Like Groundhog Day, if you will. And I'd be okay with it.

T-shirts c/o Truly Sanctuary. Adrienne is also wearing a Head Candy crown, Old Navy jelly sandals and skirt. I'm wearing Steve Madden Camarro boots and Forever21 leggings.

Now it's your turn to rock the t-shirt of your choice from Truly Sanctuary! Just log into the Rafflecopter below (or make a new Rafflecopter account), and follow the directions for each entry. Please make sure to actually do what's required for each entry. If you just click enter and not do what it's asking, I'll know. If you are unsure how to do one, skip it and contact me. I can't stress this enough. I go back and check to make sure the winner actually did what was required. I will not let cheaters win. DON'T CHEAT.

DIY Lace Crown

Since Halloween has basically snuck up on me, I thought I'd share a super easy crown to make for your little Royal. This gem is the perfect finishing touch to any fairy, ballerina, or princess costume. Or even just to play dress up. It's also perfect to use for a birthday crown. You know how I like the simple, but gorgeous DIY's, and this is mos def one of 'em.

DIY LACE CROWN

|| supplies ||

Lace (13-15")

Mod Podge

Paint (any color for the crown)

Wax Paper

Glue Gun or Super Glue

Glitter (optional)

I luckily have a huge box of lace and ribbon (thanks Mom) and picked this pattern out. I love the pointed ends. It's perfect crown material. After cutting your lace to the desired size (I made a small circumference one), lay flat on wax paper.

Start painting your lace. I used a grey paint on one crown and a gold on another. Paint one side, then when dry, flip over and paint the other side. To speed up this process, I used a hair dryer. I did two coats of paint on each side.

After you are done painting, lay the lace on a new sheet of wax paper. The lace should already be getting thicker and more sturdy.

Cover one side of the crown with mod podge. Let dry (with a hair dryer) and flip over to cover the back side. Let that side dry. Repeat the process about three more times.

 After the last coat of mod podge, I sprinkled a generous amount of fine glitter before I dried it for the final time.

Let the crown dry, and glue the ends together. Let sit for about 24 hours to achieve the maximum stiffness. And you are done.

Use bobby pins to pin to your little princess's head. Easy peasy. Now trying to get her to pose for a picture? That's the hard part.

I got this idea from Dear Lillie. You can find her post HERE.
