Let all the kingdom rejoice, for spring break is upon us! And we all know what that means. Staying cooped up in your house on the internet for a whole week! Actually, that doesn’t sound too different from my life when I’m not on spring break… Whether or not you have a life, you certainly have time to check out the cool posts from this week’s Pinterest roundup. For all the previous posts in this series, you can visit the links provided: Weekly Pinterest Top 10Ā #1,Ā #2,Ā #3,Ā #4,Ā #5, #6, and #7.

The art world is wonderful. The optical illusion world is awesome. When you combine these two worlds, you get an explosion between amazing and astronomically cool. It’s delightful when the talented people of the world decide to get together and use their talents for the benefit of us all. Check out the original post for more awesome 3D chalk art.

{Beauty}

I love it when I find beauty tips that include regular, and easy to find, products that many people may have just laying around their house. I can attest that the vaseline and double-product tips do really work. Many of my friends have tried the egg DIYs and can report that those are minimally effective. I have to try out the coconut oil and apple cider vinegar ones, and if those go well then I may have to report back on the topic.

{Decor}

Mason jars are my ultimate decorating go-to. If I could, I would use mason jars for everything (but I don’t recommend it because that could start to look weird). The full article shows you 137 ways you can alter a mason jar to fit all of your everyday needs. If you do decide to take on any of these projects, I suggest hitting up the thrift store instead of getting new mason jars (as those are pretty expensive, and the DIY isn’t even worth it at that point).

{Fashion}

If nothing else, I am a stickler for nomenclature. It gets on my nerves when people don’t call things by their correct name, and I am always wary of making that same mistake. This helpful little infographic will make you seem super handbag-savvy the next time you go hunting for a new bag. (Or it might make you seem pretentious. It all depends on how you use your powers of knowledge.)

Many people love to drink coffee and boast about their coffee drinking endeavours, and thus stay as far away as possible from tea. I happen to find tea wonderful, and for good reason. You might even be a teaholic. No matter where you fall on the tea-loving spectrum, the health benefits of these wonderful herbs and roots are undeniable. The next time you’re feeling out of whack, just brew yourself a steaming good cup of tea and relax.

{Hair}

hair

Girls who can’t grow their hair out long constantly dream of having long hair, but they don’t realize just how much work goes into maintaining it. Most of the time, us long-haired folk just let it all down and can’t be bothered to do anything more. These braids are easy to do and beautiful (and will also give the illusion that you put effort into your hair that morning). You could try these styles even if you don’t have long hair, but if you do have long hair you can play around with them a bit more.

{Laugh}

Jennifer Lawrence is indisputably one of the best people on this planet, and she is in the running for queen of the Internet. Her quirky personality and sarcastic sense of humour allows her to fit in perfectly with us misfits. I don’t personally ship Katniss and Peeta (sorry, guys), but these two make amazing friends in real life. Josh Hutcherson’s reactions to her story in this picture are equally as entertaining as the tale itself.

{Live}

live

I’ve seen many quotes before contemplating our time as a currency, but this one puts it into the simplest terms. Too often, we waste our time doing meaningless activities (don’t worry, I’m guilty too). Sometimes, we live as if we won’t ever die. But I bet that none of us live as if our bank account is never going to run out. We budget our money, spend it on what’s important, and use it to make us and other’s happy. That’s how we should be using our time, too.

{Love}

love

There are some people on the internet who delve way too far into trivial matters, but I very much appreciate them for their hobby. In art and entertainment, many nuances are often overlooked simply because the general public does not actively seekĀ the information pertaining to that topic. And so, when a gem like this analysis of the “social dynamics of medieval fairies” pops up, you can’t help but appreciate it.

{Nails}

nails

Having painted nails is great, but who honestly has the patience or time to do these intricate designs for themselves? Nail wraps can come in handy for those days when you want to have cool nails but don’t want to put any effort into painting them. (And let’s be honest, you couldn’t even paint your nails satisfactorily if you tried.) The full post pits nail wraps from these five brands against one another to see which ones are worth your time.

Hopefully you were able to find something in this post that made you laugh, inspired you, or just wasted a good few minutes of your time!
