Bedazzled Nikes

There is something I have been wanting to try as a DIY project FOREVER! Ever since I saw I saw bedazzled Nike shoes on Pinterest I have been OBSESSED! I had the perfect opportunity to try it out. I found some baby Nike shoes for sale for $10 so I had to get them. I went to Hobby Lobby and picked up the things to bedazzle them. The glue usually used for bedazzling things is called E6000. It's super cheap for $4 you get a 2 oz tube. I also picked out the smallest little rhinestones, 3mm. I just picked the smallest ones because the shoes are so tiny! After looking at the tutorials on Pinterest I picked up pretty quickly. I started at each end of the Nike swoosh and then they met in the middle. You have to put the glue on a little at a time though because it dries VERY quickly! I unfortunately had to learn that the hard way. There's a couple spots that look a little rough haha, but overall they turned out amazing!!




After I did the baby Nikes for Kiarah, I had to have some for myself! I found some Nike Frees on sale at Scheels and used the same glue and rhinestones to do mine. I absolutely LOVE them both!!

Biotin

There's something I've wanted to talk about for a while now, and that is biotin! Biotin is a vitamin that helps your hair, skin, and nails. After taking this vitamin for about six months, I definitely notice a difference. My nails are always very strong and healthy. I don't have as many breakouts on my face as usual. But most of all my hair has grown  longer and I love it! My hair has always taken forever to get long so I was super surprised when it started growing faster after I started taking Biotin.  You can buy wherever vitamins are sold. I bought mine at Walmart and I absolutely love it!
