Crafty Saturday #31

Okay. This is it. I'm really going to start blogging for real now! I am going to stay motivated and on track for everything in my life, including this blog.
I hope everyone had a delightful and safe holiday season (although I guess it isn't quite over yet, since New Year's is next week).
Anyway, here is this week's crafty Saturday post (and look, it's posted on a Saturday!).

Wishlist Wednesday: Aupie

After coming back from my blogging hiatus, I decided to slightly alter the posts that I have been doing every week. If you are and have been a regular follower, you have probably noticed that I am still doing Tumblr Tuesday and Crafty Saturday, but have not yet done Wishlist Wednesday. As much fun as Wishlist Wednesday was, it was a lot of work to do. I have decided to no longer do a Wishlist Wednesday every single week, but rather I will be doing it occasionally. I'll do these posts when I have a sponsorship agreement with a company (which is the case this week), or when I find a brand I really like and would like to share. How's that sound?

This wishlist Wednesday is brought to you by Aupie.
I was contacted by Aupie earlier this month and asked to do a post featuring my favorite items...I had no idea that there would be so many items I really liked! The site has so many options - there really is something for everyone! I hope you like my picks.

Romantic Lace Dress, $46

Striped Chiffon Dress, $32

Sleeveless Deer Dress, $40                            

Geometric Print Top, $25

Sleeveless Dog Print Shirt, $28

Long Sleeve Swan Print Blouse, $30

Colorful Diamond Print Blouse, $30

Polka Dot Collared Sweater, $48

Geometric Scarf, $11

Blue and White Porcelain Floral Scarf, $28

Signs of the Zodiac Watch, $16

Sunburst Ring, $10

So, what is your favorite item?

Crafty #30

Alright, maybe I am struggling a bit here with keeping up with this blog. I'm really not even all that busy (although I did work a temp assignment doing data entry at the end of last week). Regardless, I think I've been feeling a bit of a lack of inspiration/motivation when it comes to blogging. I need to get myself back into the routine of blogging 5 days of the week, but I am not sure how. Do any of you have advice? Have you been in a similar situation? What did you do to change it? I really appreciate any input you may have. x

On a completely different note, here is the crafty "Saturday" post, that is clearly not being posted on a Saturday. I figured I should at least get the post out there nonetheless, to help out with this whole routine thing.

Instagram Crush: Amelie Mancini

I am going to be completely honest, and inform you all that I have not used instagram since 2011. I didn't understand it back then, and I did not have any interest in understanding it with all the hype surrounding it more recently.
Nonetheless, I finally caved and have started using instagram again. (follow me!: @wildflwrchild)
The reason? Well, first of all my roommate and friends have been bugging me (plus they're constantly using it - what's the hype?). But second, I can across the GORGEOUS instagram of Amelie Mancini. After browsing through her photos, I was inspired to start using instragram again, and boy am I addicted! (another shameless plug to follow me if you have yet - @wildflwrchild) (Also, I'll probably start doing weekly/bi-weekly photo dumps.)
Anyway, I just wanted to share some of Amelie Mancini's gorgeous instagram photos. You can follow her on instagram @ameliemancini and check out her shops: Left Field Cards and Amelie Mancini.
