Thursday Thoughts


I decided I wanted to a series post each week, so now introducing Thursday Thoughts! This series is going to be a list of links to random things on the internet that I found funny, thoughtful, inspiring…(you get the idea)!

1. Cats + Abs…you're welcome


2. Future First Lady's 7 Days of Valentines
This is such a cute read, whether you're celebrating Valentines or Galentines ;) (P.S. this is my favorite gif from the article)




3. My awesome Chi O sisters singing a Taylor Swift mashup (Spoiler alert they won first place!)

4. I've got a serious case of wanderlust/longing for warm weather so basically I'm in love with pins of beautiful places around the world.

DIY Koozie Wall


If you're a normal college student, you probably have an abundance of koozies. Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, gives out free koozies. Because the word "FREE" is the call of the college student, you've probably accepted tons of free koozies from random companies, organizations, etc. Mine stacked up underneath my bed until I finally thought of a creative way to display them (because you can't buy a Lilly Pulitzer koozie and not have it showing for the world to see!). Then I thought of a koozie wall, aka a gallery wall perfect for broke college students. It's super fast and easy to make, too! Now I just have to figure out a way to display all my tumbler cups! ;)

I got twine out of the dollar bin at Target and mini clothespins from Michael's! I just measured out how many koozies I had/how much wall space I had and decided to go with five koozies on each row. Then, I put clear thumbtacks in the wall and tied the twine around it. Tying the twine is a trial and error process to determine how long/how much slack you need, but once you get it figured out, it's easy from then on out!

Do you have any other creative ways for displaying koozies?
