Skull Tee
Okay so I saw this the other day on one of my favorite sites Pinterest. I decided that I would give it a try and maybe put my own little spin on it. So I found a old long-sleeve tee that I never wore that way if I messed up it wouldn't matter! To start off with I drew my pattern with a sharpie so I knew where to cut, you don't have to mark your pattern if you don't want to but I found that it made it easier. My first step looked like the pic on the right.
After I had my pattern on the shirt it was just a matter of cutting all the circles out! For me it took about thirty minutes after I had got all the circles removed I cut the sleeves off following the seam at the shoulder. In the picture on the left I had put a white notebook in the inside of the shirt so you can see the pattern better. Layer this shirt with a white or any solid colored Cami and you have a cute top for your jeans of if you want put on a pair of leggings and boots for a fun Halloween look! You can make the shirt any length you want. For a longer shirt just make the circles slightly bigger. I will totally be wearing this, this Fall!
BELLES
The book that I am currently reading is called Belles by Jen Calonita. It is about a girl named Isabelle (Izzie) Scott who lives on the wrong side of North Carolina, but she loves her life. She has a job as a Lifeguard on the local beach, hangs out with a really cute guy named Brayden, and is on the swim team that her Mother ,who is now gone, was on. But when Izzie loses the only family she has left (or so she thought) her social worker places her with a long lost Uncle and his overly rich family. Isabelle struggles to fit in with her Cousin Mirabelle's friends in her new school, and underneath all that southern charm lies backstabbing rumors. For Izzie the floor is still spinning when a secret starts to unfold that just might change everything that Izzie and Mirabelle thought was true about their lives. Jen Calonita writes a story of romance, deception, and heart. Go find this book and find out what secret is unfolding, who will Izzie and Mirabelle end up with, and will life every be the same for these southern Belles?

Ally Cater's "Heist Society"
I am currently reading Ally Carter's book "Heist Society." The book is about a girl named Katarina Bishop whose family is in the thiefing business, but Kat doesn't want to be a part of it any more. When Kat turned fifteen she planned a con of her own, she scammed her way into the most prestigious boarding school in the country-maybe the world. But it didn't last for long her world is about to be turned upside down. Kat's friend and former partner in crime ( the achingly handsome Hale) shows up to bring her back, for a very good reason. Kat's dad is THE suspect for a job that went down where a Mobster's priceless paintings are suddenly stolen. All Kat wanted to do was escape the family business, but she can't turn her back on her dad when he is need of her help, can she? Kat goes on a mission to steal the paintings back and clear her Dad's semi-good name. With the help of Hale, and Kat's insanely annoying cousin,Gabrielle, She just might do it, but when this is all over will Kat ever get her life back or will she always be in the Family Business, weather she likes it or not? If you haven't read this book then I strongly suggest it! It's a edge-of-or-seat story and will keep you wanting more! Love it so far!

A little about this Blog!!
First of all let me tell you why I started this blog. I wanted a place where I could express my feelings about Christian Books and other books as well as, T.v. shows and movies also I wanted to get the Word of God out there. I love to read I go around all the time with my nose in a book. I read everything from Lori Copeland (Christian Fiction) to Cassandra Clare ( young adult, author of The Mortal Instruments series.) My favorite authors are Lori Copeland and Mary Connealy, I like mainly Western and Cowboy Books I know kinda odd for a person my age and a girl at that! I recently started blogging and I found out that I loved it! I don't know if anyone will actually read this blog, but I hope they will, and I hope they like that! Even if nobody reads it. I know that its out there if anyone ever does and it gives me a place to express myself a little. Don't worry though this blog won't be ALL about me at least I'll try! :) I'll be making regular posts probably about once a week or every time I finish a really good book which can sometimes be twice a week or more! Please feel free to comment and if you have a really good book that you would like to share then don't hesitate! That's all for now, until next time my fellow book lovers!
