  Are you looking for a SUPER cute desk accessory that won't cost a fortune? If so, you have come to the right place! As you may remember, yesterday I did a DIY bunny phone holder video . (You guys LOVED that)! Today, we are doing a similar craft, except with cameras.  So. What exactly is this thing? This is a "Camera" (one of the fancy ones that can print the picture), but instead of printing pictures, it "Prints" Sticky notes. Materials: - Cardboard - Scissors - Cardstock paper - Camera Picture - Sticky notes - Hot glue Instructions: 1. Cut out a piece of cardboard the same size as your camera pic.  2. Repeat step #1 3. Attach the two together by wrapping the cardstock paper around each peice. 4. Cut a slip at the top and insert the sticky notes. 5. Glue the camera pic to the front.

  Hello Girls! I hope you are having an AMAZING Day! Are you hungry? Well, you might be at the end of this post! Today we are cooking up a special smoothie! It's healthy, easy, and best of all, yummy!  This recipe was inspired by recovery food. As you might know, I like to run, and recovery snacks and just food for fueling runs is crucial. In a book I read ( Girls running ) There was an entire section about eating to fuel your body. At the tippy-top of one of their snack ideas, was smoothies.  They did have a base recipe along with some other fruity ideas, and so the cookies and cream smoothie was born! Cookies and cream is a GREAT flavor combination. I Love using it in cupcakes, and ice cream, and just eating Oreos plain! Let's jump right in! What you need:  - 1 cup of milk  - 1 cup of ice  - 1/2 (or a full) Banana  -  3 Oreos  Instructions: 1. Start by adding your ice and milk to your blender. Blend together until smooth. 2. Add the banana. Blend. Add the Oreos. Add to glass
