Guys, I DIYed something! Can you tell I'm very excited about it? I'd like to think my friend Jenni of I Spy DIY would be really proud of me and my efforts, seeing that I don't often take on crafty endeavors, but in the spirit of Earth Day, I decided that I wanted to take a crack at upcycling one of my empty Aveeno bottles.
