bracelets

Free day today! I couldn't decide if I should watch movies, exercise, sleep, read a book or play tetris. But I didn't want to be a bum and just stay in so I got up at 7 and went to the gym. It's something I used to do almost everyday, and after the gym today, I remembered why I liked exercising in the morning so much more than in the afternoon. I feel so energized and ready for my day when I exercise early as opposed to sleeping in and starting my day and gym after lunch. Waking up early also leaves me the rest of the afternoon to do more things or sleep, so I end up either getting rest or being productive. The only hassle is having to wake up early, but I think the pros of it still outweigh the cons. But that's just me.

After the gym I decided to help my mom with the Christmas gifts. She hasn't been able to shop for anything at all because of her hectic schedule, so I decided to help her make some of them in order to save some time and money. I'm not a baker, nor am I a cook, so making something in the kitchen was out of the question. Instead I tried to do something that I enjoyed and felt I did okay in.. so I made bracelets! 

Really simple gifts, but personally I would be glad to receive something like this. I really am fund of bracelets especially if they come in earthy or vibrant colors.

 I don't know who these are going to but if you're reading this and end up receiving it from my mom, then I hope you like it! It's not so hard to make, but if you make a lot of them, the beads tend to hurt your fingers a bit and it gets kind of tiring. So if you receive it, remember that it is made with lots of love!
