Why recycled earrings?
From loving creativity and unique style, the earrings I usually wear were not the cute factor that I wanted anymore. As a result I got the creative juices flowing using my fabric hat and bag scraps and made art! I really enjoy the fine, detailed motor skills I use when making these because it’s soothing, satisfying and just couldn’t keep to myself. Don’t get me wrong, I still LOVE making hats; however, sometimes creative inspiration comes when I don’t expect it and I must act on it!

Summer is in full swing here at Bound to be Creative® and I wanted to share some easy breezy tips on how to protect your face from the sun.

Pass the Baby Oil…who?
I’m fair-skinned and blond-ish gal. Growing up I was envious of the “girl next door” who could get a tan in half a minute (ahem…my sister). As a big-boned zit-faced teenager, I had no idea how or even why I needed to take care of my skin.
