My Home DIY Project: Wall Stickers

I wanted a way to give my little apt a facelift, and I must say these wall art stickers are the easiest way to add a little something extra to any room! Not to mention they are super super easy and really inexpensive:

What you will need:

* Wall Sticker Art of your choice

* A thin flat edge ( I used a ruler)

* Blank Wall Space

easy as 1,2,3

Tah Dah !!!!

My Front Hallway:

This has always been an eye sore for me but I was not sure what exactly to do

and this is what I came up with!!

Hair and Make-up by: Lexi- Katie's Prom

Im not gonna lie, this is a time when I really feel old! I cannot believe its been 6 years since I myself went to prom, OMG where does the time go! Here is Katie and she needed a fresh and sophisticated look for her big day!

Before:

Half Way Done

So Pretty!

I used a smokey eye and accented it with a touch of purple to match her dress.

** LEXI HOW TO TIP

Playing with the symmetry of your hair along with your clothes is a great way to add visual interest to any outfit!

All glammed up and ready for PROM!

Make-Up by: Lexi- Celeste Prom

After:

Close-up:

For Celeste I wanted to keep it very natural. Highlighting her beautiful complexion. We used a tan shimmer shadow with black liner. I used an angled brush and black shadow to soften the line. Pink cheeks and lips complete this look to give it a fresh and fun feel.
