Happy long weekend (for those of you who celebrate MLK from the luxury of your sofa).  This mini break came out of nowhere for me – I have no plans, other than innumerable errands (they never end, I tell you!) and a Golden Globes watching party (total guests = me; hubby and pup sleep through everything sans insights into the universe and barking tv dogs … you guess who enjoys what.)

I already featured this one over here on Glitter Weddings, but this sweet DIY project is too adorable (and simple) to miss out on, for those not getting married and/or chronically obsessed with weddings in general (➳ hand raised).

When it comes to bracelets, I can’t get enough; and the kind I can make myself, even better {for my budget and my sanity – crafting (and shopping, and baking, and reading, and shopping, and shopping) is my therapy.}  {DIY here.}

These shoes are magical.  That is all.  {Get it: Free People Hardware Loafer}

And lastly, did you know that there is a way to see what images are being pinned from your site, or any other site you are interested in on Pinterest?  The URL is “http://www.pinterest.com/source/(insert domain name here)”.   Basically, to see images being pinned from my site, I go to http://pinterest.com/source/glitterandpearls.com/ and http://pinterest.com/source/glitterweddings.com/.  You can also read what people write about your images, see what boards they are saved to, and how many times they’ve been re-pinned.

By the way, if you’ve been completely lost the last few lines or so, read my love fest over Pinterest here and check out my very own Pinterest pages: Glitter & Pearls and Glitter Weddings; and then leave me a comment with your e-mail address and I’ll forward you an invite!
