You see them everywhere. The June issue of Lucky magazine has them listed in the top 5 trends for Spring. So, always up to a challenge I hacked the collar off one of my shirts and went for it with this Beaded Collar Necklace DIY. This is a really versatile accessory. You can wear it with a sweater for a layered look or with a tank or camisole as more of a necklace.

This Ribbon Wrapped Ring DIY will also be featured on The Daily Sequin. I was so flattered when I was contacted by Vidhya from The Daily Sequin to create a project to be featured on her blog. Be sure to check her out.
I found this recipe for Graham Cracker Ice Cream Sandwiches in the cookbook Deceptively Delicious by Jessica Seinfeld. It’s a cookbook to get your kids to eat healthier, basically sneaking vegetables into everything. Even though this book is based on getting your kids to eat better, the recipes are all really good even if you don’t have kids.
I altered this recipe just a little, making it vegan, not completely intentionally but because that’s what I had on hand and they still came out amazing! I’ve made them both ways and they’re both equally good. I’ve put my substitutions in parenthesis.
Step 1
In a large bowl mix all the ingredients together. Then transfer to a smaller bowl or a couple smaller bowls (they will freeze faster). The recipe says to freeze for 1 to 1 and a half hours, mine has always taken longer more like 4 hours, it just depends on your freezer.
Step 2
Once your ice cream is frozen but not completely hard you’re ready to make your sandwiches. Place one large scoop on a graham cracker and top with another. Wrap them in wax paper and freeze for 30 minutes, or until firm.
When you’re wrapping them up I recommend you have your wax paper all cut and ready before you start making your sandwiches because they melt fast while you’re working.
Step 3 (optional)
If youre using coconut, put some on a plate and dip each of the four edges of the sandwich to coat.
These Graham Cracker Ice Cream sandwiches are by far one of my favorite desserts. I love how the tartness of the frozen yogurt is balanced by the sweetness of the graham crackers. I think they would be amazing with other fruits mixed in as well.
Enjoy!
So its time to clean out your closet and channel your inner hippie by turning your jeans into a maxi skirt. This DIY tutorial will show you how to easily create a denim maxi skirt from 2 pairs of jeans. The best part of this project is the fact that it took very little time to make, which is great if youre like me and all about instant gratification.
