BACK TO SCHOOL!

Hey guys  :)

I have been excited for "back to school" -season for a long time now, not because of school itself and all the tests, but because of seeing my friends again, the school supplies.. Also I'm going to Prague for a few days only a few days after the first day of school, how cool is that? :)

So because of my excitement, I have been watching DIY videos for back to school like all day long ever since. I did a lot of them, and all my school supplies look really cool now :) Hopefully all the pretty things will motivate me to learn more this year - my last year of school!

But besides all the small pretty bits and pieces I have made myself, I took the back to school DIY's to a whole new level - I made myself (with the help of my boyfriend) a desk! How cool is that? I'm absolutely in love with it! It took us about two to three hours (with breaks) till we finished the desk & it didn't cost us anything, because we only used things we already had at home! 

Basically we just took four euro-pallets and a few other wooden boards from my old bed and closet which we still had lying around somewhere. We just screwed everything together how we wanted it and voilà -that's the end result!

It would have been a bit difficult to write on that, so we just put the glass of our old balcony door above it. 

I absolutely love how it turned out! I really like the vintage, retro and a bit rustic look it gives. In my opinion that's just way cooler than buying one in a store. Doing things yourself can be a lot more fun and also a lot cheaper.

Start now, not tomorrow!
