Materials of 2018 | May

Summer months fly by too quick! Now that I'm looking back at April, I did NOT do good at all for May. Definitely spent too much on materials...and accumulated too many items. Update on April items (Note this is written in July) Meat raffle haul:  I have used the stick ons for cards.  I sometimes remember to take B12.  I am currently still using the pop socket.  I've been still using the top coat when I paint my nails.  Goodwill haul:  The purple dress' strap broke in our dryer! So I just superglued it as a quick resolution...  I love the T-shirt dress and actually just wore it today for church lol I have yet to use the picnic basket or try the weaving stuff.  I've worn the leather jacket a couple times (I actually totally forgot I even got it, but hey, it's summer)  The bag I've worn a couple time.  I have yet to wear the hawaiian shirt or the black shirt. After the wash, the black shirt seems to fit only. Asian store earrings - I wore once

Updates on the items I bought in March  Acteens Retreat fundraiser bags I have not used either since the retreat. i also got 2 free earring there that I have also not worn.  Mall trip:  I've packed away the santa sweater to wear next year.  I have not yet used the eye closers...maybe I'll use it tonight!  The yellow jacket I fore to the 70s crawl, but I guess I left a pen in the pocket and washed it in the laundry, and the jacket is now ruined! I'm thinking about just dying it black. I was thinking of possibly making the black splotches into "holes", but that would've been way too many holes.. I have yet to use the lotion.  I've been trying to use the eye cream daily.  I've used the sephora perfumes but I

Here's to another month! Updates on the items I bought in February ( typed up on 4/24/2018 )  Goodwill haul:  I have worn the back pack, jeans, and blue slacks.  I have not yet worn the twins shirt, Hawaiian shirt, or altered the white T-Shirt. I did find a stain on the white shirt though.  Walmart haul:  I've used up the wipes already and should buy more next month. Orchid still hasn't bloomed, but a tiny new leaf is growing.  Kohl's haul:  I haven't worn the earrings or the hat yet... Goodwill #2 haul:  I was able to wear the heels to a wedding a couple weekends ago, but I'm still waiting for better weather to wear the shorts and brown shoes.  Mall haul: I've probably worn all of the undies. I don't remember where I put the tiny lotion...but it's gotta be somewhere in my room unused still. I haven't tried the Glam mini items. The CC It cosmetics foundation is alright, it might be too light for my skin. I've decided that I'm
