Quickie DIY: Refill Your Own Air Freshener

Image
I was bored one day, and decided to take on a "quickie" DIY. I pulled out scent reservoir. I used a standard, slotted screwdriver, and popped off the top that holds the wick in place. I decided to use some of this Victoria's Secret "Hazelnut Truffle" body mist that I hadn't used. I got it for $2. It was on a 50% off sale at a thrift store. I filled it up, and reattached the cap. I plugged it in, and enjoyed. Took me about 5 - 10 minutes.

Vintage Bargain Buy Screwback Earring Restyled as an Earcuff

Image
 I was on a lunch break earlier this week, and I stumbled onto this vintage pair of screwback crystal earrings. They were marked $3.88, but I got them for 20% off, along with some other bargain goodies.  Anyway, I don't wear screwback or clip on earrings because they hurt my ears... but I turned them upside down (as shown in the photos). So....I put them over the tops of my ears, and twisted the screws until they stayed put. Gravity did the rest. Selfie time! Close up.... I got a lot of compliments at work from the other ladies. They loved my ear cuff, but they were annoyed that they were vintage.
