What I Wore - Introducing: Maple And Oak Designs



I love Maple And Oak Designs. This headband is on my head right now as I am typing, and I seriously never want to take it off. How adorable is all of Maple And Oak Designs collection? Extremely adorable would be my answer. I love the pop of red this gives any outfit might it be casual or fancy. This is my Valentine's Day headband and I can tell you that they are so comfortable. I forget I am wearing it part of the time!

Welcome to Maple And Oak Designs!

At Maple And Oak Designs we are an international couple – Guillaume is from Québec and Leonie is from Germany. We’re currently based in Calgary, Canada.

It is our passion to make fashion, fashion accessories and home decor which is handmade, unique and mostly one of a kind. We love to use bright, enchanting colours and interesting fabrics. Working with a mix of new, reclaimed and vintage fabrics to create something special is important to us.

We strongly believe in sustainable fashion. Which is the reason why we love up-cycling clothes and thus transforming something that is not loved anymore into something new, beautiful and love-able.

"We're old souls, young at heart
We're dreamers, explorers, and believers
We dream of the mountains, desert, and the sea
Sequin, rose petals, and butterfly wings
We believe in humanity
We love animals and believe in generality
We breath vintage, fashion, and textiles
We try to push the boundaries

We are the creative type
Red lips, bright eyes
full hips, bushy tails in leopard print

We live for live rock music,
Road trips, flea markets, thrift shops
New york city, fields of wild flowers, and a good cup of coffee or tea

We are the girls next store
The girls who dance on tables
The movers and the shakers

Our spirits are wild and free
Our energy is electric
Our minds are open
Our hearts are gold

We are mermaids
Bohemian in mind, body, and soul
One with nature
Soul surfs and mind wanders 

We believe in manners, the golden rule
The power of a smile and leading hand
We believe in recycling, upcycling, restoring, and buying local
We believe in respecting all living things

We like the unboring type
We appreciate flaws and scars because thats what makes us more special
More unique
We embrace different

We are forever grateful
to be alive, for our loved ones and supporters
To be given this wonderful opportunity
Known as life

We don't just exist
We live, really live…
We are the ones who will not look back and be like "what if""

Valentine DIY Project; Lipstick Art

Valentine Lipstick Art


Materials:
a variety of pink and red lipsticks (dollar store)
drawing paper
8×10 frame
pencil
heart template (optional)

Instructions: 
First take your drawing paper and your heart template and and lightly draw a heart in the middle.


Then start at the left side of the heart and begin to “color” your heart by using bold strokes. Keep doing that with different shades of lipstick until you’re done.



The key to this technique is going outside of the pencil lines. Have fun!


Allow the print to dry for about 24 hours and then frame it.
