Labor Day Long Weekend :)

Every day is like a weekend for me since I'm currently on a 'break', but check out this list of 30 DIY Projects for the 3-Day Weekend from Apartment Therapy if you're feeling super crafty and productive or just bored and want to make pretty things like me!

Apartment Therapy has hooked me initially with their 25 Terrariums to Try, Buy & DIY, which I will make a post on later for those who are interested in my gardening adventures (I personally hate gardening because insects are creepy and weird, but I've found a way to avoid them ha ha ha ha ha!)

Anyway, back to this weekend's projects... I think I will attempt:

5. Create a charging station – An Upcycled Plastic Bottle Charging Station
7. Go to sleep! – How to Nap (No, Really!)  For reals??
9. Stop the tangles – DIY Tangle-Free Headphones with Embroidery Floss Could be handy for my upcoming trip... and basically for life... apple earphones tangle up like !@#$#s!
11. Make a window box – DIY Wood Shim Window Box Maybe... I already have a terrarium though...
16. Make new bedding – You Can Do It: Sew Your Own Bedding Been thinking about this for a while!
18. Make everlasting flowers – DIY Paper Flowers From Recycled Maps Don't have maps to recycle though... I only use Google maps
22. Switch out your shower head – DIY Basics: Replacing a Shower Head Maybe for later...
23. Join the terrarium trend – Buy or DIY: Trendy Terrariums DONE!
27. Dress a window or two – Making Your Own Curtains: Easy Instructions from Across the Web Perhaps...
28. Funk up your keyboard – Colorful Keyboard Makeover With Masking Tape

Shit, I'm such an overachiever... or I have a mind of one anyway. First priority is to get my job applications together. And then I will attack this list :D

What are your plans for the loooooong weekend?
